Quick question: when was the last time you asked each of your team members how they’re doing – like how are they REALLY doing?
You never really know how that ONE question can create a massive impact on your company.
As a leader, you want to be able to prepare yourself and your team for this dynamic future of work. And one of the key metrics that you need to invest in is employee engagement.
A Gallup study found that while employee engagement increased in May 2020, it was followed by a significant drop the next month, and a 2022 survey by Bonusly revealed that 63% of workers feel unappreciated by their employer on a daily basis, and 59% of people felt that they have NEVER had a boss who “truly appreciates” their work.
The good news is that the world is ever-changing, and so is the future of work.
In this episode, I’m sharing two Action Steps that you can implement immediately to make a positive impact, and likely affect the engagement levels of your team.
Topics Discussed In This Episode:
- Reviewing your response to when the global pandemic was declared
- The Gallup reports on the “rise and fall” in employee engagement between May 2020 and June 2020
