PEOPLE
They want to be engaged
Is your employee engagement strategy working
for you?
Unless you are part of an exceptional organization, 16% of your employees are working actively to sabotage your business. That’s right, they are poking holes in your boat in an attempt to sink it. It would be far better for businesses to pay these employees to stay home. Our recommendation, free up their careers for better opportunities in life if they can’t be reengaged. It is the right thing to do for them and your business.
The challenges don’t end with the 16%. It is estimated that most businesses have 51% of their employees disengaged. They do a good job if their managers tell them what to do and how to do it. Managers will also have to follow up with this group to ensure the job was done well. In this scenario, managers are nothing more than babysitters. If an organization has any hope for the future, they must find ways of having the 67% of disengaged employees join the 33% of employees that are actively participating in their company’s success.
We must keep in mind that disengaged employees were not born, they were made during their time in your business, or they slipped through the cracks when hired. The great news: disengaged employees, for the most part, can be reengaged with the right professional, the right training and knowledge transfer program. Most importantly, reengagement follows a commitment from the C-suite to accept nothing less than a culture of actively engaged employees.
“If I had an hour to solve a problem and my life depended on it, I would use the first 55 minutes determining the proper question to ask.”
