On July 20, 1969, the first two humans walked on the surface of the moon, with one of them remarking, “That’s one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind.” Nearly 50 years later, NASA declares “we are going to the moon—to stay,” heralding the delivery of permanent tech to the lunar surface. So we have to wonder, how do monumental feats of achievement like these occur?

The business unit was doing well, but the employees were sad. Could data offer a clue? Back in 2015, inside Microsoft’s human resources division, a former actuary named Dawn Klinghoffer was taking on a difficult task.

We often talk about employee appreciation as a criteria that needs to be checked off the to-do list of management. But the importance of appreciation at the workplace goes far beyond that. Seeking appreciation is an inherent human trait.

If you do not have well developed and clearly defined employee engagement strategies, it does not show positive outcomes. Poor employee engagement is a serious concern, and many employers are failing to resolve this problem. An organization’s success is directly proportional to its employees’ happiness, and how engaged they are in their work. Money is not the only driving factor for employees these days.
