you need to implement procedures and policies that will empower your employees





and encourage them to be a part of your business





Employee engagement activities can do that





Why Are Employee Engagement Activities

Important?





How the company makes the employee feel,





and how the company fits in with the employee’s life are the biggest difference makers





Satisfied employees will be more productive, which leads to increased profitability





They will be healthier, taking fewer sick days,





and they will stay longer, reducing the need to find new skilled employees





Employee Engagement Activities You Can Implement Today





1. Involve Employees by Giving Them a Voice





• You could have brainstorming sessions to find out employee issues and what they feel solutions may be





• Periodically hold meetings to explain where the company is headed





• Start a company newsletter or intranet web site where employees can contribute articles and ideas about the company





• Maintain an “open door” policy





2. Encourage and provide learning opportunities





Set up mentoring programs, create in-house classes and training, or help pay for tuition to local community colleges or universities





3. Make Time for Time Out





This can be as simple as shutting down operations early on Fridays





and having a company meeting to talk about what was good during the week





Give out awards or a simple “thank you” for jobs well done





You could have occasional activities like an outdoor day of games to give your employees a break from the office





Evolve and Involve





You need a strategy to implement employee engagement activities





to keep your staff members from taking those calls from other COOs wanting to lure away your talent





What employment engagement activities do you find useful and productive?
