Employee Trends A Focus on Retention and Engagement

To help improve company culture and employee satisfaction, retention and engagement should be top priorities in your talent strategy. According to Harvard Business Review, employee engagement enhances performance, lessens burnout and leads to longer employee tenure. All of these can boost productivity while creating a future-focused environment. Consider the effects on your overall workforce — which are demonstrably positive when employees feel engaged.
