Why Invest In Leadership Shelby?
A recent Gallup poll revealed that a staggering 51% of employees in the American workforce do not feel engaged with their employer. 16% are actively disengaged. Many companies are experiencing a crisis of disengagement and do not even realize it. Employees report their company lacks investment in their individual career goals. Many feel they are just a cog in the machine. Some companies sensing the disengagement have taken steps to rectify it by affording employees tangible opportunities for growth. The results are undeniable. Companies with engaged employees outperform their peers by 147%. There is also a strong correlation in these numbers to how engaged individuals are in giving back to their community in volunteer services.
