what is People Engagement?

Employee engagement refers to the level of emotional connection, commitment, and enthusiasm employees have toward their work, colleagues, and the organization as a whole. Engaged employees are deeply invested in their roles. They demonstrate a genuine passion for their work and a willingness to go above and beyond to contribute to the company's success.

Engaged employees are not only more productive but also contribute to higher levels of customer satisfaction, innovation, and profitability. They are more likely to remain loyal to the organization, reducing turnover rates and associated recruitment costs. Furthermore, engaged employees serve as brand ambassadors, positively impacting the company’s internal and external reputation. 

A workplace culture that prioritizes employee engagement also attracts top talent. This is because job seekers are drawn to organizations where they feel valued, supported, and empowered to excel in their roles.

Furthermore, the Gallup 2023 report states that engagement has 3.8 times more influence on employee stress than location. And that applies to on-site, hybrid, and fully remote locations.
