Employee engagement as we are aware focuses on the needs of employees and the utilization of their skills in the most efficient ways possible. Such is the case with Harshita's organization where organizations goals are achieved along with personal growth and advancement of the employees at different levels. The outcomes of the organization have been astonishingly impressive which is a result of revitalizing the employees to do better and different.
Significance to the company
There are various ways in which organizations try to engage their workforce for instance by encouraging open dialogue from everyone in the organization and ensuring everyone is allowed to pitch in ideas, suggest changes and extend criticism and feedback. Their ways of engagement of employees also involve active interaction from everyone by holding quick face-to-face meetings where ideas are exchanged through visuals instead of listening to one-sided lectures. The company also makes sure that the goals to be reached by completion of a specific task are not entirely organization oriented rather help employees in the achievement of their personal goals.
An organization that indulges in such ways is aware of the benefits of engagement of employees and the better outcome the process promises. Such engaging activities create an atmosphere of positivity and enthusiasm where people can come up with innovative ideas for projects and easier solutions for problems. Such an environment strengthens the trust of the employee in the organization and also strengthens the pillars of motivation, commitment, and loyalty that upholds the organization and its reputation. When employees are heard and they feel recognized they are determined to work more efficiently and give better results. Employees are more likely to take up challenges and risks and surpass their own performance.
How does it help employees?
The intensity of engagement of an employee directly influences the work, colleagues, clients, productivity, functions and reputation of the organization along with the personal life of the employee. The onus of it is as much on the employees as it is on the organization. If it is just the company being innovative and creative at the workplace and prioritizing employees, the employees need to be reciprocated because if they are not then the endeavors put by the organization are futile and that would yield no result in favor of anyone.
The employees are able to ponder upon where and how they belong in an organization and their own significance in the organization along with their scope of improvement. Such an environment brings positive changes and advancements in an individual's skills while upholding career growth and personal satisfaction. Skills like leadership, problem-solving, decision making, confidence, collaboration and many more are bound to be inculcated and honed in an individual when they actively engage in the organization.
How to do better?
Together the organization and the employees can create an atmosphere that brings out the best in everyone which however is possible only if the engagement of everyone is promising. An organization needs to give their employees a platform to speak their heart and mind whereas employees need to make sure that they make complete use of such an opportunity. A workplace like this is more probable to attract more employees with a reduction in employee turnover rate and maintaining productivity and remarkable outcomes.
