The Engaging for Success report and next steps
In 2009, the government commissioned David MacLeod and Nita Clarke to undertake an independent review exploring the benefits and drivers of employee engagement in the workplace and its impact on UK competitiveness.
The review involved discussion with a wide range of employers, HR practitioners, employee engagement specialists and representative bodies. The resulting report identifies and presents a compelling case for the impact of employee engagement on business success: in areas such as productivity, voluntary turnover, absence rates, innovation and competitiveness. It articulates key enablers for effective engagement and also identifies barriers.
David MacLeod will review the key conclusions of the review and talk about subsequent activity, including a national campaign which aims to raise awareness of the ‘what’, ‘why’ ‘how’ of employee engagement.
