Working from home and digital meeting platforms have become a way of life for all of us. And by and large, we have been successful, our organisations continue to function and the work still gets done.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:post-content -->\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->But there is something missing.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->We miss the corridor conversations, the camaraderie of physical meetings, and the social trappings of working in an office. In short, it comes down to a lack of employee engagement.\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.forbes.com\/sites\/kevinkruse\/2012\/06\/22\/employee-engagement-what-and-why\/?sh=e48a3927f372\">Employee engagement<\/a> is the emotional involvement the employee has with the company and its goals. Engaged employees don\u2019t simply work for a salary. The organisation is an extension of who they are, who they identify with; and they are part of the organisation. Engaged, happy and healthy employees directly correlate to better outcomes for the company.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Back in the day, working in an office meant that employee engagement was so much easier. There was the opportunity for casual conversations, catching up with workplace friends, coffee breaks, shared lunch breaks and other interactions. With these, all gone, and with remote working now in place, we have to come up with newer and more innovative ways of keeping employees engaged.<\/p>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Employee engagement is important for employees and the organisation. Here are some of the benefits of sound employee engagement:<\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li>Engaged employees stay longer with the organisation. Less time is spent on recruiting and onboarding, and engaged employees build valuable institutional knowledge.<\/li>\r\n<li>Engaged employees are more productive because they are emotionally present in the work they do. The work has meaning.<\/li>\r\n<li>Engaged employees have lower absenteeism rates. Because work is fulfilling, they don\u2019t find reasons to take time off.<\/li>\r\n<li>Engaged employees deliver improved service and results. The organisation is part of who they are and they are intrinsically committed to high performance.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<!-- \/wp:paragraph -->Provide health and wellness support, both for physical fitness, as well as for mental health.<\/p>\r\n<h4><!-- wp:paragraph -->In summary:<\/h4>\r\n<p><!-- wp:paragraph -->Our time now is probably the first time in work history that team members are working remotely and managers are managing a remote team on a large scale.
