what does it mean?
What does engaging people at work mean?
Engagement is a social process by which people become personally implicated in the success of a strategy, change, transformation or every day operational improvement.
People become personally implicated
-
Via a personal and collective journey of self discovery resulting in insight about
- the organisation, its ambitions and their connections with it
- the change or potential for improvement
- how it affects their work
- their own attitudes, values and skills
- Through a process over which individuals feel some influence
- Where those responsible for the expected improvement are not just spectators of someone else's programme
And
- When they choose to volunteer themselves
