Summary Of Engagement Research 2008/2009

[Anthony Sork]

Hi Folks - I am looking to compile a clear summary of Engagement research results. Does anyone have a good summary of Engagement:Performance studies conducted over the last 2 years of international standing. Ideally these will link to meaures of culture, but not essentially.

Thanks,

Anthony

I summarized some high-level thought leadership from firms such as DDI, McKinsey, Towers Perrin, and Hewitt in my latest blog post. These are all papers from the last several months discussing engagement: bit.ly/3a4uft

I know that Towers Perrin also has an in-depth report and that Gallup publishes a lot of articles about the results of their engagement work.

Hope this helps!

Excellent - thanks Heather!!

I usually write about any interesting employee engagement research on my blog. You can scroll through the posts in the employee engagement category for more if you're interested.

Hi Anthony

I have not personally read the UK Government review of employee engagement titled "Engaging for Success".

But a very dear friend of mine, one of the very few people I know who fully understands engagement having done it himself, did review it and found it of little value. That is why I did not take the time to read it. His review can be found at
