"Well-being" the Emerging Tool in Enhancing Your Employee Engagement Program

04 December 2013, Singapore: Recently, my organization conducted a world-wide employee engagement survey and we found out that one of my sister company results was super high. They scored more that 85%. When I interviewed their leadership team and visited their organization, my key take-away were: -

• Engagement is a Shared Responsibility among the management team and the shop-floor supervisors;
• Making engagement fun, less format and think out the box .... stop viewing engagement from a 'Standard Work' perspective and stop setting criteria for every engagement activities. Just enjoy it.
• Deploying well-being program to enhance their employee engagement program.

Gallup (source: Well Being: The Five Essential Elements by Tom Rath & Jim Harter) cited that there are five essential area of 'well-being' an organization can focus: -

• Career Well-being
• Social Well-being
• Financial Well-being
• Physical Well-being
• Community Well-being

I guess with this article - people will understand why I advocated on 'well-being' to enhance employee engagement program.
