Labor Relations Radio E127—A Conversation With Patricia Garland About Employee Engagement & Maslow LaborUnionNews.com's Labor Relations Radio

According to Gallup, employee engagement is at its lowest point in 11 years.
The term ‘Employee Engagement’ has been around since 1990. Since then, corporate America has spent millions (billions?) of dollars investing in the “engagement industry”—polls, seminars, consultants and training.
Why, then, is engagement still so low?
What Is Employee Engagement? “Employee engagement,” according to one definition, “is a concept in human resources that refers to the degree to which employees are invested in, motivated by and passionate about the work they do and the company for which they work.” 
In this episode of Labor Relations Radio, returning guest Patricia Garland—author of ‘33 Ways How Not to Screw Up HR’—joins host Peter List to explore possible reasons why employee engagement is low and why, perhaps, we’re asking the wrong questions.
