The 'Best Managers' create a 'great workplace'… one that delivers the highest levels of productivity, profitability, employee retention and customer satisfaction.

Marcus Buckingham and Curt Coffman of the Gallup Organization in First Break All the Rules


Jack Welch once said that the three most important things that an organization should be measuring about its performance are cash flow, customer satisfaction, and employee engagement.  Yet, few organizations ever bother with measuring employee engagement.  The research is clear --- employee engagement has a huge impact on organizational performance.  But the average organization has only 1 in 4 of their employees who are engaged.  The rest, about 75% of their organization, are doing just what they have to do to get by, or worse. 

If employee engagement is so important, then why don’t more organizations take the time to measure it?  And while some organizations think they are measuring employee engagement by conducting employee satisfaction surveys, there is a huge difference between satisfaction and engagement.  Satisfaction tells only part of the story; that employees are happy.  It doesn’t tell you about the commitment that they have to the organization or how hard they will work in the future to take care of customers and the organization.

 

What an organization and its leaders need is a simple and cost effective survey that will allow them to measure employee engagement across the organization at a variety of different levels.  But they also need to have a variety of tools to analyze programs and systems so that they can eliminate organizational issues that are getting in the way of engaging employees.  Finally, they also need a set of tools that managers can use that will help them engage their individual employees.  After all, we can measure employee engagement by the team, the department, the division, and the entire organization; but we create employee engagement one employee at a time. 

At the heart of the Work Engagement Survey™ is the Work Expectations Profile® by Inscape Publishing.  The Work Engagement Survey™ uses cross-walk methodology that we used at Educational Testing Service to link the Work Expectations Profile® questions and its Group Report results to the research by Gallup on employee engagement and the measures that they use.  This not only gives us a highly researched and validated survey instrument that tells you what is going on with your organization so that you can make good decisions, but also a set of tools for your managers to use so that they can open discussions with individual employees about issues that might be keeping them from becoming engaged. 

With our Work Engagement Survey, we can give our clients the same kind of high level employee engagement data that Gallup, the Conference Board and other large consulting firms can provide at a half to a third of what they charge, plus we provide the extra tools that they don’t provide, all for our same low price. 

Methodology

Creating Engagement One Employee at a Time!

But what really sets our Work Engagement Survey™ apart from all other measures of employee engagement is that we provide each employee with a Work Expectations Profile® Individual Report .  This Individual Report helps the employee to clarify exactly which Expectations categories are most important to them.  It also allows them to determine if that Expectation has been Met or is it Unmet, and if it is Spoken about, or is it an Unspoken Expectation.  After the employee has had an opportunity to review their Individual Report, they are then encouraged to meet with their supervisor to discuss their expectations.  It is this discussion that begins to create the foundation for a relationship between the employee and the supervisor that can lead to greater employee engagement.

Remember, while employee engagement is measured at the organizational, divisional, departmental, and team levels, you don't create engagement with these units.  Employee engagement is created with the individual, one employee at a time.  The Work Expectations Profile® Individual Report allows your supervisors and managers to build the relationships and trust that creates this engagement.

Employee Engagement: Doing it verses Measuring it!

Our Work Engagement Survey™ is the difference between just measuring Employee Engagement and actually creating it!

Our Work Engagement Survey, while highly researched and validated, is considerably less expensive to administer than that of other major Employee Engagement measurement organizations, such as Gallup and the Conference Board.  In many cases, we are as little as one-third the cost of our major competitors.  Please give us a call to learn just how inexpensive it is to measure Employee Engagement in your organization, and how our process can actually increase engagement, performance, and your bottom line.
