Having an effective manager is four times more important to team members’ engagement and wellbeing than where an employee works (i.e., fully remote, hybrid or fully on-site)
If this is a concern for your organization, look no further than your performance management system. It should create visibility into individual and team goals, key performance metrics, and progress throughout the year.
Organizations need to set the expectation for individual teams to adjust the organization’s hybrid work guidelines to best fit their needs. Teams should be accountable for executing their hybrid work strategy effectively
Leaders need to ensure that people come to the office with intentionality -- to collaborate with their coworkers, develop as professionals, stay close to their customers, discuss progress with their boss and build relationships. They need to see and feel their workplace culture come to life when they step in the door
Gallup uses a proprietary formula founded on extensive research about how the engagement elements, as measured by the Gallup Q12, relate to various workplace outcomes. For this reason, employee engagement is a much higher bar than merely satisfaction or metrics that combine “strongly agree” and “agree” responses into a “percent favorable” engagement index.
