Employee Engagement: What Is It? Can It Really Be Improved?
Employee engagement is your employees’ ability and willingness to contribute to organizational success, especially their willingness to give “discretionary effort,” going beyond what is typically required in their position to make the organization successful.
Highly engaged employees are willing to go the extra mile, they work with passion, and they drive your business forward!
Then there are the highly disengaged employees. Uhhh… honestly, these folks often act as an anchor – doing the minimum required to keep their job and “stay under the radar.”
Here’s the good news: Engagement is not hard-wired. It’s not “programmed” into a person’s DNA.
Employee engagement can be dramatically improved.
TalentKeepers knows how to make it happen.
Our Approach to Increasing Employee Engagement
Let’s be honest, it’s tempting for organizations to do what they’ve always done… deliver the same employee survey year-in and year-out, identify a few organizational priorities, and do their best to make some improvements. Unfortunately, this tactical approach usually yields marginal, if any, improvements to employee engagement over the long haul.
If you’re aiming to truly impact engagement (and the resulting business outcomes), it takes a more strategic, process-oriented approach. For TalentKeepers, this approach is characterized by three simple words: Commit. Engage. Excel.
As a Senior Executive, TalentKeepers’ unique framework for planning and executing an employee engagement solution enabled me to target our customer satisfaction metrics and get the information we needed to move our organization higher in our industry rankings. This is especially important during difficult economic times.

We've Been Named One of the Top 10 Employee Engagement Solutions Providers in 2018
We are honored to be among the top 10 providers announced by HR Tech Outlook magazine. CEO Christopher Mulligan reacted to the news, “This is a great honor. I co-founded TalentKeepers in 2000 and for 18 years we’ve focused on nothing else but helping organizations engage and retain employees with turnkey solutions.”
Increasing employee engagement is fast becoming one of the critical elements of a successful organization. Data shows highly engaged workforce's can drive higher performance in key metrics like quality, safety, customer service, and profitability. Worldwide, only 13 percent of employees consider themselves to be fully engaged, according to HR Tech Outlook. Research shows employee engagement is not healthy for an organization and leads to higher levels of turnover.
The magazine dedicates their May issue to helping organizations understand and evaluate their options when considering hiring an employee engagement solutions provider.
To achieve success with an employee engagement and retention program, HR professionals must equip and empower business leaders with the right set of tools.
