A simple ‘thank you’ goes a long way

“You never know when a moment and a few sincere words can have an impact on a life.” – Zig Ziglar

Research from Gallup suggests that rewards and recognition, with its low cost and high impact, might be one of the most underutilized tools that managers have for boosting engagement.

Do you regularly show appreciation to your staff members?

If not, you could be losing an opportunity to provide encouragement and bolster engagement.

Take Action – A simple thank you can make them feel more valued in the workplace and also brighten up their day!

Increase your skills to more effectively engage your employees.

How much does employee disengagement cost you and your organization?

 

How much does employee disengagement cost you and your organization?

The Management Journal’s semi-annual Employee Engagement Index reports that 60% of employees are not engaged, and 15% are actively disengaged at work and only 25% are actively engaged.

According to Forbes, the costs of a disengaged employee is equivalent to 34% of their annual salary, or $3,400 for every $10,000 of income.

If we applied this to the average Canadian salary of $55,800 a year, the costs of a single disengaged employee to the business is going to be $18,972 annually.

Let’s apply this to an entire organization.

  • Let’s say you lead an organization of 100 people.
  • If we use the Employee Engagement Index which states only 25% of employees are actively engaged, then 75 employees are disengaged at your organization.
  • If we use the average salary of those employees as $55,800 then this employee disengagement is costing your organization annually:  $1,422,900 ($18,972 X 75 people.)

Are you surprised by the magnitude of this cost? What is the actual cost to your organization? Are you OK with the return on this investment?

This example demonstrates that there are concrete costs due to employee disengagement. What actions are you going to take to re-engage with your employees?

While there is no quick fix, there are simple leadership practices that can produce immediate improvements in engagement.

Our Engage and Mobilize Employees Program focuses on simple but powerful behaviours that will have maximum impact on a leader’s ability to engage his or her employees.
