Traditional employee engagement surveys just aren’t working how we need them to. And they’re expensive, too. As the employee disengagement trends upward, the author suggests dispensing with these surveys and reinventing them internally, tailored to your organization’s unique context. She suggests three nontraditional KPIs to track instead to boost engagement: 1) team success, 2) innovation and new ideas, and 3) trends.

Employees are one of the most undervalued sources of company feedback. Rank-and-file staff don’t always have it right. But they have insights into your operations that you couldn’t get from an expensive consultant, a maverick leader, or the latest research. When you use those employee insights to make changes in your business, you’ve got the starting point for an employee feedback loop.

2024 has tested every organization, and 2025 promises no less - the warning signs are everywhere. If you’re relying on superficial approaches to diversity, you might find yourself scrambling to catch up. Thought diversity - the fuel for new ideas, fresh perspectives, and disruptive innovation - is more than a buzzword. It's a survival strategy. And if you’re not building it into your workplace culture right now , you’re heading for trouble.

Employee recognition has often been deemed a "feel-good" initiative, tied closely to rewards. While we understand its importance, we tend to associate recognition with intangible outcomes like engagement and sentiment, rather than direct impacts on retention and high performance. In today’s workplace, the true ROI of recognition lies in its ability to regenerate tangible, business-driven results.
