the ability to mobilise employees around a vision, and core set of values and principles, then give them the freedom to work together as a team to make that vision a reality
Employee engagement is the end result of employees being aligned with the company's interests, as well as the company being aligned with the employee's interests - employees and companies working together to meet the customers' needs.
Defining employee engagement is just semantics, we know what it is.
What is really important is answering the question, if we havn't got it, how do we get it?

As someone who focuses on engagement for 450+ employees, I think about it at a very personal, human level. With that perspective, engagement is liking what I do, liking who I do it for and having an optimistic (confident) outlook for my future.
"Engagement is simply a small bucket within the bigger bucket of human capital."

I think we all generally agree that engaged employees are a powerful force for delivering company success. I think we all also agree that you cannot force employees to engage. You can, however, create work environments and cultures in which employ...
Treat people the way they want to be treated, not the way you want to be treated.
I am looking for some discussion topics. I have a team that really needs to come together as a group. (or, I have a group that really needs to come together as a team). I've done a few team building activities, but this time, I would like to have ...
Great word ownership, Kurt.
Without a strong sense of ownership by the employee we don't get their full engagement, their complete commitment to the work.
The formula for employee ownership for any boss is to listen to the employee and that give...
Remember, recognition is free. It's not material. It's a communication tool. I agree with Ben that employees need a voice and a safe place to use it. They also want some ownership in the processes and acknowledgment that the tasks they perform mea...
Recognition is important, but possibly not in the way you think. Rewards have negative effects down the road no matter how good they look. On this subject, read Alfie Kohn's "Punished by Rewards".

Teach your employees how to Manage Up: Some people think this is brown nosing, but it's really about helping your boss understand who you are.
Angela,
I think recognition is always essential but we have to look at the deeper reason why. Reward and recognition confirms value. Every human being wants to know, "Does my life matter?" This is the questions we help answer when we reward and re...
Be real, don't use jargon, and be honest. If something is going to hurt people would rather be prepared!
