THE BIGGER PICTURE
The context for WHY Employee Engagement is
critical
The 20th Century model was ‘Business as Usual’.
MAKE EFFICIENT – aligned but not engaged, central
direction, command and control.

50. What is Engagement?
‘A workplace approach designed to ensure that employees are
committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to
contribute to organisational success and able at the same time to
enhance their own sense of wellbeing.’

Professor David Guest
OR, IN OTHER WORDS…….
‘It’s all about the people!’
53. Employee Engagement:
The Evidence
CEOs call on UK to deliver
GDP growth
by better engaging
employees at work.
A high-level task force of some of the
UK’s most recognisable organisations is
calling for every leader and manager
across the economy to play their part
in tackling the UK’s employee
engagement deficit.
Analysis of the evidence shows that:
Only around a third of UK employees say they
are actively engaged at work.
20 million workers are not delivering their
full capability or realising their potential at
work.
of people said they have more to offer
in skills and talent than they are currently
being asked to demonstrate at work.
UK productivity was 20% lower than the rest
of the G7 in 2011.0

different ways
Capacitas - a small company, voted best place to
work for graduates this year

- a mix of learning, guidance and tolerance
- going with a gut feeling of what works
Royal Borough of Kensington & Chelsea
- plans on the back of a survey
- big all hands events to help people contribute
- challenges with merging with other boroughs
Imperial College Hospital, Sheffield University
- leadership training is key focus
- wide business training, looking at many areas

everyone, how to keep things fresh and alive
New Ideas
Workfit
Lean
Volunteering
Flexible working
New approach on the go now - very interesting!

61. WHAT HAPPENS IN THE REAL WORLD?
Great case studies to go and look at via Engage for Success:
Marks and Spencer - using a commitment approach to engagement
The approach is moving away from an action plan that gets filed away to an honest,
transparent way of working
“Engagement is now our sole people KPI for our business and has equal weighting to
sales. We have seen our engagement scores increase year on year for the last 6 years”
The Department of Business, Innovation and Skills - creating the BIS story
Needing to address the staff feedback of too much clutter in communications, and the
realisation that BIS wide messages were not getting through, managers and staff came
together to create the BIS story
“The highlight was the BIS Story festival where staff presented their team stories
depicting the part they played in the BIS Story to colleagues across the Department.”

62. What gets in the way?
>8
‘Spare me
another ****
HR/comms,HQ
initiative’
‘We’re too
busy for that!’
‘Don’t you
know there’s a
recession on?’
‘We’re brilliant
‘I’ve not got
already! We don’t
need to change’
time for the soft
and fluffy stuff’
‘That won’t
work here’
63. What else gets in the way?
Command and
control – it’s
easier!
>8
Leader behaviours
don’t model the
values
Too impatient –
this needs time,
application,
relentless focus
Micro-managing –
it’s stifling and
drains everyone’s
energy
People skills for
the line – this is
tough, they may
need help
Not sharing good
practice – where
it’s working,
showcase and share
Survey & event
based,
transactional
64. What can YOU do?
Easy ways to start building a better place to work:
• Say thank you!
•Be VISIBLE and accessible - open the office door, go and talk to
people
• Accept that it’s more emotionally demanding
• Starting working on your own self awareness - none of us are perfect!
• Good leaders welcome challenge, they don’t close it down
