What Does Employee Engagement Look Like When Done Badly?

Episode notes

In this episode, we explore common yet ineffective employee engagement activities. We recap some points around employee engagement from past episodes, while providing some clarity on why what you might be implementing is not working. Our prescription for this episode is to understand that employee engagement actions are different from the outcome of having engaged employees. What most companies do not realize they are actually looking for improvements to the employee experience. Past Episode Referenced: Season 1 Episode 14: Why Is Employee Engagement So Difficult?
