I would like to share an article by Josh Bersin Why companies fail to engage today’s workforce The overwhelmed employee. The article explains how companies are struggling to engage our modern, 21st century workforce.
This is a worldwide issue. Gallup research shows that only 13% of employees around the world are actively engaged at work, and more than twice that number are so disengaged they are likely to spread negativity to others.
What he found is that workers today want more. They want something different. They are demanding, they want meaningful work, and they expect their employer to make work more rewarding in many ways.
Does this reflect your work place? Do the findings surprise you?
