If you could even achieve half of these outcomes, wouldn't improving employee engagement and implementing a few initiatives around it be worthwhile. In a survey of more than 500 senior executives we found most CEOs, company presidents, and key executives haven't done this because "they don't know what to do." Total blame game. The reality is that they just don't think their employees matter enough to want to invest in making sure they are happy, engaged, growing, learning, having an impact, being productive. We're still stuck in most companies in a 1970s model of command-and-control leadership - come in, sit down, shut up, do your work, and don't make waves. Plenty of people I could replace you with. Who would want to work in this environment?
Is it any surprise why engagement has dropped from 30 to 20 percent, 50 percent of employees are looking for a new job, and turnover, poaching, productivity numbers are all trending in the wrong direction?
