Employee engagement has become part of the furniture of the modern workforce as organizations finally grasp that the experience of their customers is directly related to the experience of their employees. At this point, not investing in engagement is like not having salt and pepper in your kitchen cabinet. You’ll miss out on the flavour of loyalty, collaboration, and innovation that comes with putting your people — your greatest differentiators — first.

Our next mandate is to help managers move beyond measuring team engagement to taking actions that help them perform. This is why Officevibe has widened its scope to include performance management. The truth is, employee engagement and performance go hand in hand because people feel most engaged when they’re set up to perform successfully, develop continuously, and ultimately see their impact.
