Everyone’s looking for the recipe for employee engagement. How do you get motivated workers? To start, think about the six components of Employee Engagement. These are the drivers of engagement.
1. FIT
Is the employee a FIT with the organization–its culture? Is the Purpose of the organization meaningful to the employee? Are the values of the organization in harmony with the employee’s values?
Is the employee a FIT with the job? Does the employee feel one’s work is significant and is the best use of one’s abilities?
2. TRUST
Do you have a trusting workplace where people feel their leaders have integrity–they’re honest and fair? Do employees respect their leaders?
3. CARING
Does work feel like family? Is collaboration encouraged? Do employees have friends at work?
Do you have ongoing, open communication? Do employees feel like leaders/managers listen to them? Is information freely shared?
5. ACHIEVEMENT
Does the organization support individual development? Do employees have challenging assignments? Does the workplace encourage achievement and mastery?
6. OWNERSHIP
Do employees have autonomy? Would employees say they feel involved? Do they participate in decision making that impacts their work? Is work flexible?
When employees’ human needs are met, they are more engaged.
