Is Employee Engagement Truly Impacting Business Results, or Are We Missing the Bigger Picture?

Hey everyone, do you all really think that employee engagement yields good results in the organization? Do all organizations actually design their engagement activities as per the requirements of the bottom line?

Thank you for taking the time to read the post. Although I feel that you haven't read the article posted there, as the article talks about the problems that most organizations face but do not notice during the Engagement Survey. It also discusses what should be done to avoid those mistakes and work towards achieving the maximum results of engagement activities and surveys.

While conducting one such survey in my last company, I also felt that the management is generally not very keen to work on some of the outcomes of surveys; they generally adopt a defensive mode. I will share more after reading the article posted by you.
