Survey results say we just arent happy at workWe recommend you read the survey results on employee engagement (thats corporate speak for how interested and connected we are at work) at the Gallup people or The Conference Broad or any number of employee survey results. Our interpretation is that they say the same thing - we just aren't happy at work. Let's face it the facts are pretty straight - with numbers like 50% of employees reporting they are not happy or 30% saying they feel negative at work, or perhaps the 76% of people who say their commitment to their company is up for grabs, our employers should be worried. I think they should be, but I think we have the answers. First question - are things really this bad and second question - if they are, what can we do about it? |
