Why "Engagement?
Engagement links directly to better patient, business and employee outcomes
Including the patient experience, meeting budget, productivity and retention, according to Gallup Inc.'s renowned research. Engaged employees get more out of their work: they have opportunities to do what they do best every day and feel a sense of belonging at work.
Engagement goes beyond job satisfaction
Addresses the emotional connection employees feel to their jobs and their employer. Reflects how invested and aligned employees feel in the success of their teams and the organization.
