The CIPD identifies three dimensions to employee engagement:
- Intellectual engagement – thinking hard about the job and how to do it better
- Affective engagement – feeling positively about doing a good job
- Social engagement – actively taking opportunities to discuss work-related improvements with others at work
Put simply, engaged employees are those who can bring their whole selves to work – who are both effective and fulfilled. Engaged employees feel connected to the purpose and goals of the organisation, to the task they have to perform and to the people they work with.
Effective leadership is essential to creating employee engagement
