CHAPTER-1
EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
Employee Engagement
INTRODUCTION
An "engaged employee" is one who is fully involved in, and enthusiastic about their work, and thus will act in a way that furthers their organization's interests.
According to Scarlett Surveys, "Employee Engagement is a measurable degree of an employee's positive or negative emotional attachment to their job, colleagues and organization which profoundly influences their willingness to learn and perform at work".
Employee Engagement Definition:-
Employee Engagement
Employee engagement is the extent to which
employees feel passionate about their jobs,
are committed to the organization,
and put discretionary effort into their work.
Aspects of Employee Engagement
Three basic aspects of employee engagement according to the global studies are:-
The employees and their own unique psychological makeup and experience The employers and their ability to create the conditions that promote employee
engagement Interaction between employees at all levels.
Thus it is largely the organization’s responsibility to create an environment and culture conducive to this partnership, and a win-win equation.
Categories of Employee Engagement
According to the Gallup the Consulting organization there are there are different types of people:-
Employee Engagement
Engaged EmployeesHave strong relationships in organization.Highly motivated to work hard.Stay – even for less money.Go the extra mile.Recommend organization as good place to work.
Not EngagedNot strongly committed to organization.Feels trapped.Gives bare minimum.
Actively DisengagedPoor relationship with organizationOnly going through the motions

Career Development- Opportunitiesfor personal development
Career Development- Opportunities for Personal DevelopmentOrganizations with high levels of engagement provide employees with opportunities to develop their abilities, learn new skills, acquire new knowledge and realize their potential. When companies plan for the career paths of their employees and invest in them in this way their people invest in them.
Career Development – Effective Management of TalentCareer development influences engagement for employees and retaining the most talented employees and providing opportunities for personal development.
Leadership- Clarity of Company ValuesEmployees need to feel that the core values for which their companies stand are unambiguous and clear.
Leadership – Respectful Treatment of EmployeesSuccessful organizations show respect for each employee’s qualities and contribution – regardless of their job level.
Leadership – Company’s Standards of Ethical Behaviors A company’s ethical standards also lead to engagement of an individual
EmpowermentEmployees want to be involved in decisions that affect their work. The leaders of high engagement workplaces create a trustful and challenging environment, in which employees are encouraged to dissent from the prevailing orthodoxy and to input and innovate to move the organization forward.

Employee Engagement
How much employees are prepared to endorse the products and services which their company provides its customers depends largely on their perceptions of the quality of those goods and services. High levels of employee engagement are inextricably linked with high levels of customer engagement.
Other factors
Equal Opportunities and Fair TreatmentThe employee engagement levels would be high if their bosses (superiors) provide equal opportunities for growth and advancement to all the employees.
Performance appraisalFair evaluation of an employee’s performance is an important criterion for determining the level of employee engagement. The company which follows an appropriate performance appraisal technique (which is transparent and not biased) will have high levels of employee engagement.
Pay and BenefitsThe company should have a proper pay system so that the employees are motivated to work in the organization. In order to boost his engagement levels the employees should also be provided with certain benefits and compensations.
Health and SafetyResearch indicates that the engagement levels are low if the employee does not feel secure while working. Therefore every organization should adopt appropriate methods and systems for the health and safety of their employees.
Job SatisfactionOnly a satisfied employee can become an engaged employee. Therefore it is very essential for an organization to see to it that the job given to the employee matches his career goals which will make him enjoy his work and he would ultimately be satisfied with his job.
Employee Engagement
Communication The company should follow the open door policy. There should be both upward and downward communication with the use of appropriate communication channels in the organization. If the employee is given a say in the decision making and has the right to be heard by his boss than the engagement levels are likely to be high.
Family FriendlinessA person’s family life influences his wok life. When an employee realizes that the organization is considering his family’s benefits also, he will have an emotional attachment with the organization which leads to engagement.
How to measure Employee Engagement?
Step I: Listen
The employer must listen to his employees and remember that this is a continuous process. The information employee’s supply will provide direction. This is the only way to identify their specific concerns. When leaders listen, employees respond by becoming more engaged. This results in increased productivity and employee retention. Engaged Employees are much more likely to be satisfied in their positions, remain with the company, be promoted, and strive for higher levels of performance.
Step II: Measure current level of employee engagement
Employee engagement needs to be measured at regular intervals in order to track its contribution to the success of the organization. But measuring the engagement (feedback through surveys) without planning how to handle the result can lead employees to disengage. It is therefore not enough to feel the pulse—the action plan is just as essential.
Step III: - Knowing the Degree in which Employees Are Engaged?
Employee engagement satisfaction surveys determine the current level of employee engagement. A well-administered satisfaction survey will let us know at what level of engagement the employees are operating. It is important that employee engagement is not viewed as a onetime action. Employee engagement should be a continuous process of measuring, analyzing, defining and implementing. The employee survey is a diagnostic tool of choice in the battle for the hearts of employees.
Step IV: - Identify the problem areas
Employee Engagement
Identify the problem areas to see which are the exact areas, which lead to disengaged Employees.
Step V: Taking action to improve employee engagement by acting upon the problem areas
THE 10 C’S OF EMPLOYEE ENGAGEMENT
How can leaders engage employees’ heads, hearts, and hands? The literature offers several avenues for action; we summarize these as ten c’s of employee engagement, which are supposed to be essential for employee engagement.
1. CONNECT:
Leaders must show that they value employees. Employee engagement is a direct reflection of how employees feel about their relationship with the boss. employees look at whether organization and their leader walk the talk when they proclaim that,” our employees are most valuable asset.”
2. CAREER:
Leader should provide challenging and meaningful work with opportunities’ for career advancement. Most of the people want to do new thing in their job. Good leader challenge employee; but at the same time, they must instill the confidence that the challenge can be made.
3. CLARITY:
Leader must communicate a clear vision. People want to understand the vision that senior leadership has for the organization, and the goals that leaders or department heads have for the division, unit, or team. Success in life and organizations, to a great extent, determined by how clear individuals are about their goals and what they really want to achieve.
Employee Engagement
4. CONVEY
Leaders clarify their expectations about employees and provide feedback on their functioning in the organization .Good leaders establish processes and procedures that help people master important tasks and facilitate goal achievement.
5. CONGRATULATE
Survey show that, over and over, employees feel that they receive immediate feedback when their performance is poor, or below expectations. These same employees also report that praise and recognition for strong performance is much less common. Exceptional leaders give recognition, they do so a lot; they coach and convey.
6. CONTRIBUTE
People want to know that their input matters and that they are contributing to the organization’s success in a meaningful way. In sum, good leaders help people see and feel how they are contributing to the organization’s success and future.
7. CONTROL
Employee’s value control over the flow and pace of their jobs and leaders can create opportunities for employees to exercise this control. A feeling of “being in on thing” and of being given opportunities to participate in decision making often reduces stress; it also create trust and culture where people want to take ownership of problem and their solution.
8. COLLABORATE
Studies show that, when employees work in teams and have the trust and cooperation of their team members, they outperform individuals and teams which lack good relationships. Great leader are team builders; they create an environment that fosters trust and collaboration. Surveys indicate that being cared about by colleagues is a strong predictor of employee engagement. Thus, a continuous challenge for leaders is to rally individuals to collaborate on organizational, departmental, and group goals, while excluding individuals pursuing their self-interest.
9. CREDIBILITY
Employee Engagement
Leaders should strive to maintain a company’s reputation and demonstrate high ethical standards. People want to be proud of their jobs, their performance, and their organization.
10. CONFIDENCE
Good leaders help create confidence in a company by being exemplars of high ethical and performance standards. Leaders should actively try to identify the level of engagement in their organization. Find the reason behind the lack of full engagement, strive to eliminate those reasons, and implement behavioral strategies that will facilitate full engagement.
