How important is recognition to employee engagement? How important is engagement to the bottom line? While the answers to these questions may seem obvious, in today’s business climate, leaders need data to help them make decisions that involve the investment of resources. Recognizing employees and boosting engagement take resources — time and money. While conventional wisdom would suggest that these efforts directly impact the bottom line, conventional wisdom is not enough. Leaders are looking for data that can connect actions and results.

I just returned from a conference where ‘culture’ was the buzzword. Over and over, industry professionals stressed that an organization’s compensation plans must be designed to match its culture. However, what if your culture is exactly what is killing your pay for performance?

Forbes recently called 2014, the “Year of the Employee”, and declared that the war on talent is over, and talent has won. The point Forbes is making is that talent needed in workplaces is growing more and more scarce. Companies are going to have to scramble to find the technical skills required to stay competitive in today’s marketplace. Expertise in areas such as engineering, analytics, life sciences, mathematics and IT will be in short supply.

The importance of maintaining an engaged employee workforce for productivity and profitability no longer lends itself to debate. Engagement’s value is considered an axiom for every company that prizes committed employees for what they bring to the organization. Equally valued and the object of considerable focus by human resources departments are retention rates. High percentages that reveal constant turnover are anathema to HR because they reflect poorly on the organization in general and HR in particular. Accordingly, when it comes to the dual topics of retention and engagement, it’s worth paying particular attention to high performers who should be the first priority for engagement and retention.
