employee-centered and digital. Which means having a new
mindset, plus a set of consumer-focused and technological
skills to create new HR solutions.
Above all, it requires a belief in the power of leveraging the
latest consumer technologies inside HR.”

through the eyes of our employees, staying connected, and
being aware of their major milestones.
Making the workplace an experience allows companies to
embed their culture and values in the workplace and use
this to recruit and retain top talent.”

5.1.EMPLOYEEENGAGEMENT
“The ultimate challenge and the most urgent for HR is to
look at how they are engaging their people – whilst at the
same time providing open access to the best, most easily
used tools on the market today.
I know I feel engaged when my company provides me
everything I need to win the day and to achieve my targets. ”
Jeff Wellstead
Partner, Digital People Practice at Digital Works Group
7. “High engagement—defined largely as having a strong
connection with one’s work and colleagues, feeling like a real
contributor, and enjoying ample chances to learn—consistently
leads to positive outcomes for both individuals and
organizations, including higher productivity, better-quality
products, and increased profitability.”

“Allowing employees to complete mundane tasks in fewer
steps and on their phone saves time and headaches,
making enterprises far more productive.
Smarter workflows allow workers to handle things on their
own, without needing to wait for someone else. All it
takes today are a few clicks on a smartphone.”

9. “Building a culture of trust is what makes a meaningful
difference. Employees in high-trust organizations are more
productive, have more energy at work, collaborate better
with their colleagues, and stay with their employers longer.
They also suffer less chronic stress and are happier with
their lives, and these factors fuel stronger performance..”

10. “Uncertainty about the company’s direction leads to
chronic stress, which undermines teamwork. Openness is
the antidote. Organizations that share their “flight plans”
with employees reduce uncertainty.
Workforce engagement improves when supervisors have
some form of daily communication with direct reports.”

11. “At work we often get the message that we should focus on
completing tasks, not on making friends.
When people intentionally build social ties at work, their
performance improves. Adding a moderate challenge to the
mix will speed up the social-bonding process.”

12. “Recognition has the largest effect on trust.
Public recognition not only uses the power of the crowd
to celebrate successes, but also inspires others to aim for
excellence. And it gives top performers a forum for
sharing best practices, so others can learn from them.”
