Work as an Experience for Employee Engagement

September 18, 2019 by Michelle Ray

 

Do we think about work as work, or do we think about work as an experience? Because today, let’s make no mistake, people are looking for an experience, and those experiences include feeling like work is fun, and being totally engaged in what they’re doing.

People wanna have the opportunity to have balance between work and life, and when they do come to work, it’s gotta be an experience that’s a positive one, where morale is healthy, and people are feeling like they’re making a contribution. Are you recognizing people’s efforts, as well as their results? As people are on the trajectory of their career path, they may not immediately be achieving the results that you expect. So, if that’s the case, recognizing the effort they’re putting in, showing them that there is an opportunity to grow, is all part of this learning experience.

We spend a tremendous amount of time at work, and we should never forget how important it is to create the right atmosphere. Every one of us contributes to the culture, every one of use contributes to the atmosphere. So, work, because it’s such a big part of our lives, let’s make it the best experience possible.
