CulverServices Employee Engagement Consulting

It is no secret that engaged employees are good employees. Most employers would love for their employees to want to come to work every day and feel excited to do their jobs. With employee engagement such a critical goal for many companies, why are only 33% of workers in the U.S. engaged with their work?

The fact of the matter is that if employee engagement were simple, this figure would be a lot higher. But getting and keeping your employees engaged takes effort. It requires crafting a plan, implementing that plan, and continuing to maintain engagement once you’ve achieved it.

By working with an experienced employee engagement consultant, our clients develop and implement plans that not only get employees engaged, but keep them engaged. You work hard to attract the best talent to your business. Our team can help you keep them, and keep them happy.

Another key element in employee engagement is wellness. Healthy employees are happier and more productive than they would be otherwise. By putting a wellness plan in place, you show your employees that you care about their wellbeing, while improving your company’s bottom line.

Our employee engagement consultants understand what it takes to improve engagement, reduce turnover, and instill a culture of engagement that will stand the test of time.

Why Is Employee Engagement Important?

According to the Society for Human Resource Management, an engaged workforce leads to:

• Greater productivity
• Increased employee retention
• Improved customer satisfaction
• Better customer loyalty
• Increased profits
• Ability to retain key employees

What Constitutes a Great Employee Engagement Program?

The first thing to know when you decide to institute an employee engagement program is that you need much more than a quick fix. Our employee engagement consultants will work with you to develop a sustainable program that will continue to keep employees engaged for the long haul.

A great employee engagement program will help you to:

• Attract
• Reward
• Retain

The “Employee Experience” begins during the hiring process and extends throughout your employees’ tenure with your company. Our employee engagement consultants will ensure that your business’s leadership can engage your key employees early and keep them energized and focused.

The second thing to note is that employee engagement cannot be improved by simply paying more or providing better benefits. Compensation is just one part of a job, and while it is important, pay alone will not keep your employees happy and engaged. High pay alone won’t stop top talent from leaving you when your competitor offers them more money.

Our consultants can help your leadership team keep your key employees engaged and ultimately increase employee retention by:

• Determining what will make your employees happier through employee engagement surveys
• Improving the employee experience at your organization
• Identifying how to create meaning for your employees
• Creating actionable plans for achieving and sustaining engagement
• Facilitating meaningful communication and feedback so that employees feel involved and excited about changes
• Coaching your leadership team on change management, so that this and future changes to your business go smoothly
• Assessing the success of the program and adjusting as necessary

Employee Wellness

It is tough for employees to feel excited to get up for work in the morning if they’re sick all the time. Healthy employees are engaged employees; partly because they feel better physically and partly because they appreciate their company taking care of them.

Thankfully, there are a number of ways to meaningfully invest in the health and wellness of your workforce without breaking the bank. Our wellness consultants will show you how to design a wellness program that actually improves your bottom line.

There are many facets of employee wellness. From health benefits to the culture of the organization around healthy activities, there are many ways you can improve wellness within your organization.

Here are some example ideas and programs your wellness management consultant can help implement for your business:

• An employee fitness center
• Weight-management programs
• Smoking cessation programs
• Healthy snacks and/or lunches
• Employee assistance programs (EAPs)

You can also get creative, crafting wellness initiatives that work for your business. Some businesses offer longer lunches so that employees can go to the gym and bypass the post-lunch coma, while others have “nap rooms,” where workers can rest and rejuvenate between meetings. More active companies might sponsor athletic outings. This kind of innovation can seem counterintuitive but can pay dividends if done right. Your consultant can help you to figure out the best wellness program features for your company and culture, and our change management experts can help you implement.
