Recognizing that a disengaged workforce can negatively impact productivity and profitability, many businesses are attempting to reverse the trend by employing low-cost employee engagement strategies. After all, people are your most significant (and most expensive) resource when it comes to producing value and business success. What ideas do come to your mind?

This depends on the scale of your enterprise. Smaller enterprises might benefit from closer relations between the coworkings. Organizing events, parties, off-sites might be the best way to boost engagement for such companies. Larger organizations might need to develop more formal ways to get employee feedback and to ensure they are satisfied.

@daniel_engels I agree with you that it is pretty easy for small organizations. And as small organizations have limited budgets, they need more low-cost options to retain their employees and keep them satisfied. Large organizations have more budgets, so it is not a significant concern for them.

It's critical for your company's values to stand for something. Employees, particularly millennials, want to work for organizations that prioritize more than just profit. You may build a valuable sense of connection with your employees and community by providing meaningful employment.

You can try initiating chats on interesting or humorous topics on the official communication channels during the evening hours. Try sharing topics with memes. Do this on regular basis and maybe take help from the most humorous person on your team to initiate the topics. Let me know if you need some help.

My company is working remotely for 10 years already. Since the team is distributed all over the world, we meet only occasionally. To keep everyone engaged we do the following: - keep Slack active. We have various channels and many of them are not work related to discuss various fun matters - we pay a lot of attention to peer recognition. Kudos is something we do really often. - regular check ins with managers. We do it in written format to accommodate the different time zones We've written a blogpost about it if you are curious https://www.myzenteam.com/employ...
