Employee engagement is a workplace approach designed to ensure that employees are committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to contribute to organisational success, and are able at the same time to enhance their own sense of well-being.

3. Employee engagement is not an exact science.
So far, the whole concept has been built on HR
experience, positive phycology and business
models that engage a company’s talent towards
a productive culture of success.

It all begins with acceptance.

7. 1. Implicate employees in your business planning
process
Every 6 months, or even quarterly, present
the most important issues in your
company and the actions made to address
those issues.

assessing opportunities and coming up
with improvement ideas for your business
strategy

8. 2. Create a knowledge sharing system
.
One of the biggest costs of a high employee turn over rate is the loss of
essential information.
Implement a mentorship program, pairing experienced employees with
newly hired ones. Create a learning program template that they should
follow, giving them enough space to test their own learning methods

9. 3. Encourage knowledge sharing in a creative way
Create an open sharing space, once every 2 months or so,
where every team can present up dates on their project
and key learning points.
Make it fun and creative! You can have a theme per each
sharing session. For example, this month’s theme is
“Mafia movies” and the team decides to present its
updates in a God father-like manner.

10. 4. Show them the money
Give your team a quick presentation of the financial state
of your company, every quarter or at the end of the year.

set bold objectives for the next months and get every one
involved in meeting those objectives.

11. 5. Encourage and provide learning opportunities
Create your own Academy, where employees can access
the knowledge and development opportunities that they
need. Assess their needs and their preferences, create a
curriculum and set - up1-2 classes per week. Make it
engaging and rewarding with a caps and flowers and even
a fun nigh tout.

or during a general update meeting.

13. 7. Let them create their own onboarding experience
Create a self-guided on boarding experience. People are
much more likely to remember and assimilate information
that they get on their own.
Set the ground rules, give them basic instructions, a list of
objectives and a time frame.
6/10/2015 13Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

14. 8. Assign company values
Assign one of your company’s values to the employee who
best represented it in the last month, based on a peer-
voting process.
6/10/2015 14Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

15. 9. Have teams create their own set of values
Designing your own game rules makes playing a lot more
fun. Having a team set of values can help increase synergy
and productivity.
6/10/2015 15Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

16. 10. Assign a buddy/mentor for every newcomer
An important part of the onboarding process is having some
really important questions answered.
Questions that someone would be hesitant to simply ask a
manager.
6/10/2015 16Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

17. 11. Have team photos
Have photos of your team on a wall, or frame them around
the office. Group photos, funny photos, events photos or
random photos snapped when people weren’t watching.
6/10/2015 17Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

18. 12. Encourage volunteering
Give your employees a couple of days a month to volunteer
for a cause they support.
Better yet, set a team volunteering day, as a group activity.
6/10/2015 18Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

19. 13. Remind people your company’s mission and
values
People need to be reminded of why they are doing what
they’re doing.
6/10/2015 19Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

20. 14.Recognize and encourage innovation
Reward your creative team members. Give them a friendly
“Good job!” and recognize them publicly for going the extra
mile.
6/10/2015 20Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

21. 15. Celebrate achievements
Big or small, they are the solid proof that the work people
are putting in has meaning.
Refill their energy tanks with some recognition and
celebrate their hard work.
6/10/2015 21Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

22. 16. Celebrate people
Birthdays, promotions, retirements, newcomers welcoming,
there are plenty of important moments where people can be
put at the front of the company. Show them they matter!
6/10/2015 22Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

23. 17. Show respect
This should be the cornerstone for every office interaction.
Especially when it comes to people in different hierarchies.
6/10/2015 23Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

24. 18. Empower your employees
Nothing creates a greater sense of responsibility and
ownership like having the decision power. Don’t be afraid to
let people be their own leader.
6/10/2015 24Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

25. 19. Create your own internal magazine
Create your internal employee-focused magazine with fun
columns, news, featured stories and opportunities. Who
would n’t like to be feature don’ the cover as Employee of
the Month?
It can be an online magazine or a printed one. Or, it can be
both, a monthly online issue and a quarterly printed one.

26. 20. “I am my own hero”
Encourage individuals to design and own their career paths,
instead of relying on the company or on their manager.
Have people write their goal on a piece of paper. Put it in an
envelope and close it. Then, after 6 months or a year, give
them the sealed envelopes back to see if they’ve realized
that goal. Managers will have a guiding role.
6/10/2015 26Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

27. 21. Give back
Get involved in social and charity initiatives. Giving back
creates a positive mentality. It also fosters pride and loyalty.
Get the team together, have every one pitch a cause and
pick the one you want to support. It’s important that you
make it personal, that you make it count. You can donate
either time and involvement, or money, or both.
6/10/2015 27Copyright @Md.Badruzzaman

28. 22. Build long-term engagement
Don’t settle for a quick fix. Develop a long-term employee
engagement strategy with clear objectives and action steps
for more than a year, then re-evaluate and build on it.

create results we have
people at work who are
half asleep.
