Employee Engagement


Employee engagement is the emotional commitment that employees have with your organization and its goals.

During the industrial revolution in the late 1700s and early 1800s, companies did not nearly give as much attention to employee engagement as they could have done.
Back then, organizations did not need to. People were just glad to be (barely) making a living. Engagement was basically a transactional contract and came down to “Work for Pay”; nothing more and nothing less.

Nowadays, with modern civilization at its peak in most economically developed countries, company perks and incentives to motivate employees have just about been exhausted. Many of these benefits have also been widely adopted across different industries in one form or another.
Thus, such benefits hardly distinguish your company from the competition. The differentiator that remains for organizations to attract, retain, and motivate employees is an emotional contract.

People determine the success of any organization. Engaged employees are a competitive advantage for companies.

Employee engagement is facilitated by addressing psychological human needs that are as old as time. It is only the context in which companies choose to address these needs that has changed.

With all of the technological developments and automation rapidly changing the way we work, organizations continue to rely on people for their creativity, problem-solving abilities, and innovation. Hence employee engagement does not just pass the test of time, but I believe it will only become even more significant as modern society continues to develop and evolve.
