 The key to achieving great performance in firms is employee engagement. Employees who are more engaged with the work and the work culture tend not to be responsible and manage achieve the dedicated objectives. Employees who are not productive and not satisfied they might contribute for the growth a negative culture inside work premises. Therefore, managers and executives who want to drive performance in their organizations must prioritize increasing engagement.

So how can you increase employee engagement? Several helpful tactics are included below:

Create a positive work environment: Engagement is significantly influenced by the workplace environment. People like to work in settings where they are respected, valued, and supported. Setting the tone for the culture you wish to build as a leader is crucial. Be truthful, open, and conversational with your staff. Encourage teamwork, creativity, and invention. Celebrate successes and thank staff for their work (Bhatti, Hussain & Doghan 2018).

 Give employees room to grow: Employees of an organization must feel that they have a development in their professional life. Employees might feel like they are growing professionally by opportunities such as training, mentoring, and development programs. Employees are more likely to be interested and dedicated to their work when they perceive a clear path for advancement inside the company and the industry itself.

·   Providing autonomy: Employees appreciate autonomy, so avoid micromanaging them. Giving staff members the freedom to decide for themselves and take responsibility for their job can be a potent incentive. As human beings employees need to engage their freedom to decide and work, therefore less control and tight working cultures need to be avoided to boost the performance (Mansoor et al. 2022).

·       Provide flexibility: Work-life balance is a growing concern for employees. Giving employees the option of flexible work schedules or remote work can be a huge perk.

·       Correct regular feedback: Regular feedback is crucial for the development of employees, therefore give it to them often. Employees are more likely to feel valued and invested in their work when they get constructive criticism. Regularly providing feedback can aid workers in staying on task and enhancing their output (Smith 2019).

Increasing employee engagement is essential for fostering good performance in businesses. Managers and leaders may create an environment where employees feel appreciated, encouraged, and invested in their job by fostering a positive work culture, creating opportunities for advancement, granting people autonomy, enabling flexibility, and providing regular feedback. Employee engagement increases productivity, commitment, and willingness to go above and beyond to accomplish goals.
