Increased employee engagement = increased productivity = increased profit for your company!

1. Key enabler 1: strategic narrative
Strong, visible, empowering leadership provides a strong
strategic narrative about the organisation, where it’s come from
and where it’s going.
The past
You are here
The future
This gives a line of sight between the job and the organisation’s vision.
The story is communicated clearly, consistently and constantly.

3. Key enabler 3: employee voice
There is employee voice throughout the organisation, for
reinforcing and challenging views; between functions & externally;
employees are really seen as your key asset – not the problem.
This voice is an informed one. Views are sought early and followed up; explanations are given if
ideas/views not adopted.
Trade unions/staff representatives are part of the engagement architecture – collective voice matters 3

4. Key enabler 4: integrity
There is organisational integrity – the values on the wall
are reflected in day to day behaviours.
These expected behaviours are
explicit and bought into by staff.
Keep it real – staff see through
corporate spin quicker than
customers or the public.
Integrity enables trust: no
engagement without trust
