Employee engagement
What is employee engagement?
Employee engagement is how committed, involved and motivated people are in their work and their organization. Engaged employees put effort into their work because they care about the result, which shows up in productivity, quality and retention.
What drives engagement
- Meaningful work and clear goals
- Good relationships with managers and colleagues
- Recognition and room to grow
- A workplace and tools that make work easier, not harder
How engagement is measured
Most organizations use regular surveys, often an employee satisfaction survey or pulse surveys, combined with indicators such as retention and absence.
Where the workplace fits
Everyday friction at the office, such as hunting for a free room or a meeting that starts late, wears on engagement. AskCody removes some of that friction by keeping room, desk, catering and visitor bookings in Outlook, where meetings are already planned.
Frequently asked questions
Is engagement the same as satisfaction?
No. Satisfaction is how content people are. Engagement is how committed and involved they are.
How often should engagement be measured?
Many organizations run a yearly survey with shorter pulse surveys in between.
