In boardrooms and HR departments around the world, two words consistently stand out as a key driver for revenue and profit growth.
These are ‘employee engagement‘.
Make these two words come alive in your company, and you’ll be rewarded with employees and managers who:
- Are passionate about their work
- Take ownership and responsibility for the success of your company
- See their work as more than just a job
- Have high levels of business acumen and understand the bigger picture
- Go the extra mile, not because you ask them to, but because they want to
- Are focused on delivering excellence for your customers – at all times
- Understand the importance of repeat customers and referral customers
- Are proud of their work
- Believe in your company – and are an ambassador for you
- Think like a business owner, rather than an employee.
The Link Between Emgaged Employees and Profits
It has long now been accepted that there is a direct one-to-one link between the level of engagement of employees, and the profitable growth of a company.
From engaged employees, flow happy repeat and referral customers, which lead to greater levels of revenue, profits and company valuation.
The Gallup Organisation states that companies with engaged staff have 38% higher customer satisfaction, 22% higher productivity and up to 27% higher profits.
The Corporate Leadership Council states that engaged employees perform 20% better and are 87% less likely to leave their organisation.
In recent times there have been two notable publications about employee engagement, which prove beyond all doubt the economic case for creating engaged employees. These two reports are included here for you to download.
1. Engaging for Success by David MacLeod and Nita Clarke (on behalf of the UK Government)
2. The Economics of Engagement by The Human Capital Institute – an independent US research organisation
These comprehensive reports clearly prove the case for making employee engagement a critical strategy for your business growth.
Scalable Employee Engagement Tools and Strategies
Having accepted that employee engagement is critical for company growth (and survival in times of recession), the question now turns to “how do you physically go about engaging your staff?”.
This is an area we specialise in and have developed a proven set of tools and strategies, which any company – large or small – can embrace to engaged directly with their employees.
At the heart of our employee engagement tools and strategies is the belief that engagement is not a one-off event, but an ongoing process.
Engagement is about creating a shift in the hearts and minds of your employees – which doesn’t happen overnight, but is a gradual process.
Engagement requires a two-way interaction between your employees, managers and the leadership of your company.
More importantly, engagement comes from multiple levels of learning and development, rather than a single solution.

Our employee engagement tools and strategies are underpinned by mentoring, both at a face-to-face level, and with the use of technology in the form of MP3 mentoring sessions (these give your employees a world-class business education, and provides a structured backbone for face-to-face mentoring sessions).
