Where does your passion for work lie? Is what you do for a living consistent with what your true likes and dislikes are—or do you toil at something that does not align with your values?
ENGAGEMENT PAYS
Money and autonomy, or the chance to work for a good cause, are at the root of most career paths and job satisfaction. But what happens when what you do is not consistent with who you are and what’s most important to you?
It should come as no surprise that people are most happy when their value systems align with their job and career choices. When those things are not in alignment, employees become disengaged and miserable.
Employee engagement is critical to retention and to productivity. According to the U.S. Department of Labor’s Bureau of Labor Statistics, on average people stay in their jobs 4.1 years, and for those between 25 to 34 years of age, that number is less than three years. That’s a lot of turnover and employee churn for companies who spend a lot of time and money recruiting and retaining staff.
To remedy, employers need to develop engagement strategies that keep their teams interested, happy, and productive through improvements to work environments, flexible scheduling, competitive salary and benefits, and leveraging the latest technologies at work.
RIGHT PEOPLE FOR THE JOB
The most critical place to start with employee engagement is before a person ever joins your team. It’s simple: recruit and hire talented people passionate about your brand, the industry in which you work, and/or the kind of work they will be doing.
A recent Gallup study revealed that about 67% of U.S. employees are disengaged—meaning they’re not all that “into” what they do for work. Naturally, employers want engaged employees who support the innovation, growth, and revenue their companies need.
