What is Employee Engagement

An engaged employee is a person who is fully involved in, and enthusiastic about, his or her work. In his book, Getting Engaged: The New Workplace Loyalty, author Tim Rutledge explains that truly engaged employees are attracted to, and inspired by, their work (“I want to do this”), committed (“I am dedicated to the success of what I am doing”), and fascinated (“I love what I am doing”). Engaged employees care about the future of the company and are willing to invest the discretionary effort – exceeding duty’s call – to see that the organization succeeds.

Focus on These Three Things to Create Killer Employee Experiences

Let’s be honest with each other. The way we think about work is absolutely broken and outdated. I know what you’re thinking, “what about all of the employee engagement programs out there?” Unfortunately, inside of most organizations around the world, employee engagement has simply become a way to force employees to work in outdated workplace practices while giving them perks to make them happy. It’s a short-term adrenaline shot designed to boost the annual employee engagement scores.

The Employee Experience Index

We are in the midst of a major transformation in the workplace. In the industrial era, the focus was on task-oriented laborers whose primary output came from their hands. In the information age, knowledge embodied in employees became a central component of the economy.

Now we are entering the cognitive era. In this new era, in which machines are able to learn, reason and interact with humans naturally,1 the boundaries between people and technology become blurred.

Rather than diminishing the role of people, in the cognitive era people are at the forefront of working with and realizing the benefits from new technologies to achieve more than was ever possible before. In fact, the cognitive era is just as much the human era. It is a time when work can be a more rewarding experience for employees.

Recognizing that “the battle for the hearts and minds of employees is played out daily through their workplace experiences,” organizations are now reexamining their employees’ experience at work.
