Why Is Employee Engagement and Appreciation So Important?

A quick scroll through the gThankYou blog will reveal a wide variety posts about appreciating and engaging employees. We talk about it all the time, because it’s key to the success of any business. No surprise, it seems like every week there are articles describing how vital the need for engagement and gratitude in the workplace is.

A Huffington Post article outlines 10 reasons why engagement is key and it’s hard to argue with the writer’s points and the research behind them.

We won’t go into all ten reasons, but here are just a few:

1. Profits increase

A Gallup study shows that companies with engaged employees have higher earnings.

2. Retention rates improve

Engaged employees have lower turnover than disengaged employees.

3. Workplace happiness is boosted

Recognition means a lot, in fact only 12 percent of employees leave a job just for a bigger check.

4. Productivity rises

Engaged employees outperform their less engaged peers by up to 202 percent.

5. Recruitment rates

Employees who are engaged and happy are more likely to refer friends for job openings.

As the article’s writer (and CEO of TalentCulture) Meghan M. Biro put it:

…employee engagement is perhaps the most critical ingredient to achieving your company’s top goals. It’s in your best interest to invest in your employees because they’ll become invested in your company’s success—and that’s a sure way to boost your company’s bottom line.

Not Sure Where to Start?

Just take a few minutes to look over the calendar! We bet that even if you are thinking you don’t have the time, budget or staff power to focus on employee engagement you’ll find something that will resonate with you.
