Employee Engagement

Employee engagement is one of the most measured and least understood metrics in business. Most organisations survey annually, report the number to the board, and change very little as a result.

The organisations that move the number treat engagement as an output rather than a target. They understand that you cannot improve engagement directly — you improve the experience that produces it, then measure whether it worked.

This category covers the practical side of that. How to design a survey people will actually complete. Why response rates collapse for frontline teams and what fixes it. What to do with the results in the first fortnight, when the credibility of the whole exercise is decided.
