Time to take a look at your employee engagement
The bad news first: A Gallup poll found that only 36% of U.S. workers feel engaged at their jobs.
Now, the good news: Companies with high employee engagement are 22% more profitable.
So, how does a company avoid a low employee engagement rate and as a result enjoy higher profitability? We think a great way is improved communication. Digital strategy tools can be one of the most beneficial drivers of improved communication.
Benefits of improved communication with your team include:
- Higher trust factor
- Smoother collaboration
- Stronger teamwork
- Better processes
- Enhanced employee engagement
That’s because when a company digitizes their mission, vision, values, strategy, and goals, employees are more engaged. Employees want to know that their work matters. And they want to know how their work ties into a larger vision. When employees know their work rolls up into higher-level strategic pillars and goals, they will be more loyal, productive, and satisfied.
If you think your teams are going through the motions and are at risk of burnout, look at your communications. Look at your transparency. Help your employees see how their work matters.
