With the stresses caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, many organizations are struggling, and their employees are being forced to work remotely – many for the first time – while facing uncertainty about their futures.

So, it’s no surprise that a recent Gallop poll found that 85% of our nation’s workers are not engaged.

How is this impacting the workplace?

Disengaged employees are taking more sick days, they’re undermining the work their more engaged colleagues accomplish, and they’re dragging down overall company performance.

In fact, employee disengagement is costing the US economy $350 billion every year!

Join this webinar and learn:

  • The basics of employee engagement, and why measuring and improving engagement is so very important.
  • To measure employee experience by collecting early and ongoing feedback from both employees and supervisors. Having a clear window into critical engagement metrics will help your organization pinpoint exactly where you need to make improvements.
  • To generate a predictive model for improving employee engagement, which includes who is the right fit for your organization, what motivates them, and what keeps them engaged.
  • Employee engagement ideas and tips to try with your own teams, such as:
    • Ways to ensure employees are in the right role and have the tools they need to be successful
    • New approaches for creative training and coaching
    • Hw to prioritize your team’s wellbeing—rethinking service projects, employee assistance, and employee recognition.

Finding ways to measure and promote better engagement across the employee lifecycle is more critical now than ever before. An engaged employee is more likely to be energized by their work, motivating to those around them, and willing to tackle difficult problems.

They will look for ways to be an ambassador to their company, with both colleagues and customers. Organizations that get this right will drive greater financial returns, jump past their competitors, and climb to the top of “the best places to work” lists.
