Employee engagement
This document discusses employee engagement in an organization.

The document outlines different frameworks and models for measuring engagement, including engagement with the organization, with managers, strategic alignment, and competency.

For some, this might involve doing as little work as possible. • Engaged employees are motivated to do more than the bare minimum needed in order to keep their jobs. Employee satisfaction… • only deals with how happy or content employees are. • covers the basic concerns and needs of employees. • does not address employees’ level of motivation or involvement.

- 10. Beyond Engagement –Alignment & Competency An organization needs more than just engaged employees in order to succeed. There are two additional areas that relate to employee performance and that are closely linked to engagement. Strategic alignment Competency • Does the organization have a clear strategy and set of goals? • Do managers have the skills needed to get the job done? • Do employees understand how the work they do contributes to the organization's success? • Do managers display the behaviors needed to motivate employees? • Strategic Alignment ensures that employee effort is focused in the right direction. • Competency is measured with 360 Degree Feedback.

You also need to understand the key drivers of engagement. We employ two techniques that enable you to identify what to focus on and how to improve in those areas. 1. Priority Level - we look at the statistical patterns across all groups in your organization to determine which items are impacting overall engagement within each demographic group. 2. Virtual Focus Groups - next, we ask targeted follow-up questions at the end of the survey that ask employees to provide examples of problems as well as suggestions for how to improve.

Editor's Notes
- #4 The definition we’ll use is “unlocking employee potential to strengthen performance resulting in the capture of discretionary effort.” It’s a combination of employee potential and company performance to create a highly engaged workforce. >>>
- #7 Now that we have a definition, it’s important to understand what employee engagement is and more importantly, what it isn’t. >>> Employee Engagement isn’t about things, having the best amenities, avoiding tough discussions, pleasing everyone, or an HR program. Many people think that employee engagement means giving to employees at the expense of the business. >>> What employee engagement is includes relationships, shared responsibility, being clear on goals, communication, opportunities and development. Note that this list focuses on the success of people and the business. Lastly, it is essential to remember that employee engagement is >>> not a program. It must become part of the culture. >>>
- #21 So… so far, we’ve shared our definition of engagement, and why it’s important to focus on engagement as a strategic business priority -- based both on current trends and the state of engagement today, as well what we can expect to see in the future with the demographic shifts. We want to hear from you now. >>> What are you seeing and experiencing? What’s most difficult for you as a manager/supervisor in terms of keeping employees engaged? How are you addressing these challenges? Write suggestions on a flip chart. W – Type suggestions on screen below picture level. >>> We’d like you to share some of the things that you’ve done, or are currently doing, that are having a positive impact on engagement – in your own circle of influence. Write suggestions on a flip chart. W – Type suggestions on screen below picture level. Maintaining engagement during the economic downturn, and amidst all of our organizational changes, is possible. >>>
- #23 You – as a manager/supervisor -- play a very crucial role in boosting employee commitment to the job, day-to-day work, team, and the organization. The most effective managers ultimately impact performance and drive engagement through two roles: >>> Managers must first impact performance through the direct management of an employee’s work objectives, such as assigning projects or giving feedback. >>> Second, managers have a broader influence on the environment in which employees carry out their work, since you are the primary link between employees and the company. So, you can improve performance by helping to manage the employee’s relationship with the organization – acting as a conduit – such as connecting an employee with the larger purpose of the company, or demonstrating that the company is committed to their development. >>> At the foundation, managers must demonstrate key behaviors and values such as… (read info in the box)
- #24 Based on extensive research, across the manager’s two roles, these are considered to be the top 10 key behaviors to focus on to create high performance and engagement >>> For each of the 10 behaviors, comment as appropriate. Point out how each role applies to the behaviors.
- #25 Know them: Organizations need to put their workforce under the same microscope that they apply to their customers. Just as consumers choose which products to buy, employees make choices every day about which organization to work for, what tasks they will undertake, and how much to focus once on the job. Taking time to know what’s important to each individual employee, as well as to your workforce as a whole, is the first step toward securing discretionary effort and changing the way employees view their work. Grow Them: People want short and long term opportunities to improve their skills and capabilities. To grow employees effectively as well as the organization, senior leaders must foster a culture of ongoing learning and education. Inspire Them: Most people want to have an emotional connection to their work as well as to the organizations for which they work. EE’s are more inclined to give discretionary effort when purpose and meaning infuse their day-to-day activities and long-term agendas. And when ee’s respect their managers and colleagues, they are more inspired to meet and exceed expectations. Inspiration comes about by what leaders and managers emphasize and prioritize and how clearly and effectively they communicate those priorities. Involve Them: People give discretionary effort when they feel they are active participants in their employers’ missions, not passive players just following orders. This means people must be knowledgeable about the agency for which they work, be treated as valued contributors and have the freedom to act in ways that they believe will enhance overall performance. Effectively involving employees requires senior managers to do 4 things: inform employees about business operations and external challenges, gather employee input, create collaborative opportunities with colleagues, and give people freedom to act in ways that improve operations, reduce costs and assist customers. Reward Them: All things employees receive in exchange for their work. This includes salary, health care benefits, pension benefits and other financial benefits. Also include nonfinancial elements: appreciation and recognition. It’s this last type of reward that has the greatest potential to boost engagement. HERZBERG MODEL. However, pay and benefits can’t be overlooked. While they may not induce people to put in extra effort on the job, they can disengage people if they are viewed as unfair or uncompetitive, undermining the effect of other efforts to engage. Together these 5 action areas Know, Grow, Inspire, Involve and Reward build the 3 connections required for engagement: head, heart and hands.
- #26 In an effort to drive ahead regardless of whether employees are on board, agencies may attempt to execute their plans in a way that’s not meaningful to their employees as if they haven’t recognized that human beings execute strategy. The result? Disengagement Gap, where we find large numbers of people who don’t understand the strategy, aren’t invested in bringing it to life and certainly don’t see the importance of their roles in executing it. Bridging this first gap is done by connecting people to the strategy and making it theirs – though that doesn’t necessarily connect them to each other. This is the DISENGAGEMENT GAP
