Relationship in Organization ( Employee engagement )

27 Jun Relationship in Organization ( Employee engagement )

Employee engagement describes the process of encouraging a positive attitude amongst employees in order to maximize their performance. Unlike performance-related pay, for example, initiatives to improve employee engagement are not written in an employee’s contract. They instead aim to create an environment where employees can see the overall aim of the business, feel valued by their employers, and feel comfortable expressing their own views.

The Seven Pillars of Employee Engagement Self-Assessment is a tool used to assess how you, as a leader, are implementing actions and strategies to affect employee engagement. For each pillar, you should note down what actions you are taking to deliver this element and then use feedback and your own assessment for how this can be improved.

1. Showing commitment

Do you have a clear and transparent and written employee engagement strategy? 

2. Getting to the front line

How do you execute this strategy directly with your team members? 

3. Loudhailers to conversations

What language and communication techniques do you use to communicate with your team? 

4. The reservoir of wellbeing

Do you equally reward strong performance and discipline and advise weak performers?

5. Bring back the manager

Is there enough support for managers to be in a position to engage their employees?

6. Harnessing talent

Is your organization’s talent management strategy harnessing talent potential in your team?

7. Creating consequences

Do engagement assessments exist to measure current standards?
