Depressing...

...or an

opportunity...

...to grow that 17%

compelling and

engaging

employment brand?

It’s time to do

something about it. It’s

time to #GetEngaged.

We believe in inspiring people to

remake the way organizations

think about and engage people to

achieve their purpose.

Business is changing.Successful companies are now

acknowledged as those that are

rethinking how they engage people in their purpose, culture and values.

From high profile start ups to tech

companies and forward-thinking

corporations, these companies are

realizing the value of engaging with peoplein a more meaningful way that is

leading to greater value for employees, customers and shareholders.

These are the game changing

businesses, the lighthouse companies

driving a new way to do business.

We call these the people-enabled companies. The people growing that 17%.

Why not be one of them?

1 Revenue / Profit

2 Employee turnover

3 Productivity

Q6. Who is doing Employee Engagement well and why?

Who is doing employee engagement well?

1. Employee-centric companies share a purpose-driven culture focused on

developing, recognizing, and motivating employees.

2. Be clear about what you are measuring and why. Focus on key business

outcomes for your organization.

3. Employee wellbeing is essential. Happy employees = happy customers.

Happy customers = happy business.

4. Reward plays a part in engagement, but only up to a point. Employees

should be rewarded, but not-over rewarded.

5. Mean it, live it, don’t ‘do’ engagement to people, make it ‘the way we work

round here’.

6. Stop rewarding quantity metrics (hours, face-time, output) and start

rewarding quality (value generated).
