What Employees Want: Overlooked Insights in Employee Engagement

Discover how to transform your organization into a community of belonging.

 

Do you know what employees need from your business?

 

Even if you did before, it’s already changed. Understanding what really drives employee engagement was once the ideal. Today, it’s necessary.

 

In the shadow of the “great resignation,” the stakes of engagement are higher.

 

But this silver lining quickly evaporated. More recent data from Gallup paints a bleaker picture of global employee satisfaction:

 

  • 19% are miserable
  • 21% are engaged at work
  • 33% are thriving in their well-being
  • 44% regularly experience stress at work
  • 60% are emotionally detached at work

 

The dwindling happiness reflected in these figures isn’t far ahead of burnout and attrition.

 

It begs the question: Is this just the way things are? Is disengagement and dissatisfaction inevitable? Do HR professionals need to stop trying to make employees happy and accept widespread disappointment?

 

We’re back to business as usual, right? Wrong.
