Employee engagement is crucial for company survival, positively impacting both employee satisfaction and organizational success. Key reasons for low engagement include lack of appreciation, with statistics showing that engaged employees lead to increased sales and better shareholder returns. Recognition and praise are effective tools to enhance productivity, retention, and customer satisfaction.

last year. – Gallup

an additional 0.6% growth in sales. – Aon Hewitt

50% higher than that of the average organization. – Aon Hewitt
