Employee engagement refers to an employee’s emotional commitment and responsibility to their work and employer.

Here’s an infographic created by Springworks on important pillars of employee engagement, and they can help you build a workplace culture that takes your business to the next level. 

1. Values & Purpose

Your firm must identify the values and purpose of your company and codify it in a clear and brief mission statement that everybody in your organization can comprehend and explain

2. Communication

It fosters trust, openness and boosts employee morale. Calibrating plans to respond to employee input is necessary for effective communication.

3. Health & Wellness

Employee health and wellness are important in productivity, happiness, and performance that should not be disregarded.

4. Workplace Environment

By designing an environment that reflects your company’s culture and values, you can gain twice the value. 

5. Peer Relationships

Employees are more engaged, and businesses are better in companies where friendships are widespread. It turns out that friendship gives your company a competitive advantage.

6. Recognition

Create a monthly company-wide award for the employee who exhibits the most dedication to your core principles. You’ll establish an emotional relationship between the receiver and the firm, and you’ll assist in reinforcing the company’s values in the process.

7. Growth and Development

Employees are on the lookout for methods to bring value to their jobs and advance their careers. Therefore, employers must use effective coaching tactics and employee training opportunities to inspire staff to attain higher performance.

8. Feedback

You won’t solve the problem of low employee engagement until you figure out why it’s happening. Feedbacks are a useful tool for establishing what is lacking by allowing everyone to submit input and reassuring them that you are listening to their concerns.

9. Manager Relationship

Managers that have regular talks with employees and explain how their job contributes to the organization’s success are more likely to have enthusiastic and engaged employees.

10. Company Alignment

Management must determine the root reasons for employee disengagement and identify solutions to remove roadblocks to better employee-company alignment.

11. Diversity and Inclusion

There can be the inclusion of diverse ideas through the encouragement of open and honest dialogues in which employees are not afraid of the implications of their words.
