What is it that keeps your employees coming back to work each day? Is it their paychecks, flexible work schedules, or an opportunity to grow within the firm? Employees today are looking for more than just a 9 to 5 job, they want to be excited about their workplace, involved in their work, and create relationships with their colleagues. Companies often miss the core related issues in employee engagement because they assume engagement is linked solely to compensation. At the end of the day, whether you are an employee or a customer, people want to be recognized and appreciated, they want to build connections, they want to be a part of something bigger than themselves, and this is how it can be done.
