Motivate & Engage the Workforce
Studies show that engaged workers are over 40% more productive than their unengaged counterparts. Yet, a whopping 70% of workforces are at best complacent and at worst actively disengaged. Creating a competitive advantage through
people requires both a top down engagement strategy and a bottom up approach to motivating individuals.
Most companies have just scratched the surface of
the benefits that Employee Engagement can have on their bottom line.
Employee engagement should be viewed as a strategic tool for optimizing workforce contribution.
To be effective, it should be considered in all aspects of leading and managing within an organization. Our approach to Employee Engagement programs has four key
components:
- Identify Employee Engagement’s Role in Your Business Strategy. The role should be a central focus in the design, execution, and measurement of your
business plan.
- Focus on Implementation First, Then the Survey.
Ensure that you can proactively implement solutions that have a track record for increasing engagement
based upon the survey results. Too often companies jump first to
selecting “the right engagement survey” without thinking through the
information that they will need to take specific actions to improve
employee engagement.
- Use an Engagement Survey that Provides Strategic Insight and Enables
Immediate Action. While they may be good for a consultant's
bottom line, standardized or abbreviated engagement surveys
typically provide leaders less than half the information needed to
make decisions and take action.
The key is to use a customized survey that is action-driven rather
than curiosity-driven.
- Make an Employee Engagement Index a Key Performance Indicator. Your engagement index is the equivalent of your company’s market capitalization for
your employees, and it should used to evaluate all human capital programs.
Creating a motivating environment for individuals and teams is as important as having a viable strategy, vision, and implementation plan. To create this type of environment, leaders must
use a motivation framework that effectively:
- Uses both intrinsic and extrinsic motivators
- Distinguishes between short and long-term consequences of motivational approaches
- Recognizes factors that support or undermine motivation
- Applies tools, tactics, and strategies that create long-term intrinsic motivation
- Supports their culture
