You are right -- engagement claims...Thanks, Marisa. You are right -- engagement claims without action are fruitless. As you say, employers are responsible for creating an environment in which employees WANT to engage...only then can engagement become a reality. The same is true with recognition -- an insincere "Great Job" with no specifics, no authenticity is hollow. True, strategic recognition requires appreciation tied to core values with specifics on contribution.Derek Irvinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565283467086029030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24929435.post-3771267856743018042009-11-23T22:33:26.809-05:002009-11-23T22:33:26.809-05:00Derek,
I completely agree with you (and David). ...Derek, <br /><br />I completely agree with you (and David). I do not think that employee engagement is a fad or a buzzword. <br /><br />However, I do think certain people and organizations throw the term around too much. They make claims about caring for their employees, having strong cultures, having core values, etc. when really,they haven't focused on creating an environment that encourages employees to volunteer their best every day. Those organizations still have a lot to learn. <br /><br />Great post, I look forward to reading more. <br /><br />Marisa KeeganUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15776189104416240947noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24929435.post-83277207564971479692009-11-23T07:49:18.542-05:002009-11-23T07:49:18.542-05:00You're welcome, David.
