  41. Mhm.
  42. Directly contribute
  43. two
  44. employee engagement levels or a decrease in employee engagement levels.
  45. So the M. Stands for meaning
  46. your work has a purpose beyond the job itself.
  47. A stands for autonomy,
  48. the power to shape and to work.

  58. Survey items that measure these five engagement
  59. um contributions must also measure outcomes perceptions,
  60. attitudes and beliefs just so we can really
  61. grasp how the employee feels in the workplace.
  62. So this survey here is from Gallup, Gallup employee engagement survey.
  63. Um according to Gallup's most recent research, 51%,
  64. as you can see on the graph here of employees are disengaged in the workplace.
  65. 13% are actively disengaged
  66. actively disengaged employees are employees that are noticeably unhappy
  67. and spread negative vibes to their colleagues at work.
  68. And lastly 36% of engaged of employees were actually engaged
  69. which is rather low but it is the highest number since
  70. Gallop started measuring employee engagement back in the 2000s
  71. effective surveys produce results that will help managers and leaders determine
  72. um what action specifically and what area
  73. specifically need the most improvement and focus.
  74. So the questions should revolve around how
  75. employees feel in the workplace so that the
  76. appropriate and most effective action plans can
  77. be implemented for optimal results of course.
  78. So here are some survey questions or some examples of survey questions.
