Why Friendships at Work Matter for Employee Engagement

Many people spend more time with their coworkers than with their families or friends outside of work. Therefore, it makes sense that having good relationships with your colleagues can have a positive impact on your work experience and performance. One of the most widely used measures of employee engagement is the Gallup Q12 survey, which includes the question "I have a best friend at work".

According to Gallup, employees who strongly agree with this statement are seven times more likely to be engaged in their jobs, compared to those who don't. They also report higher levels of satisfaction, loyalty, and commitment to their organizations.

Elevating Employee Engagement: Financial Training for a Happier, More Productive Workforce

Every business knows that happy and engaged employees make everything run smoother. Thousands of studies have established the point most of us already know intuitively: simply put, when employees feel a real connection to their job, they work harder and stick around longer. As a business owner, you want that because it means less turnover—bypassing the time and money costs of onboarding new hires—and more productivity from your team.

Just having the same team in place for as long as possible is, in itself, an asset. The more your employees work together, the more they know each other's strengths and weaknesses. It's easier for them to collaborate well. Also, feeling stable and having a steady routine can really lift spirits at work. All businesses go through ups and downs, but seeing the same friendly faces every day can make a big difference in how employees weather the storm.
 
Given how important it is, employee engagement is a hot topic in the business world. In this article, we'll be taking a closer look at one of the many ways to shore up engagement among your employees you may not have considered before: financial training.

Once upon a time, there was this thing called a traditional matchmaking agency. If two lonely people wanted to meet each other, they would pay an agency to organize a matchmaking event.

Then came the Internet and soon followed dating apps. You didn’t need an agency to do the work for you. Just had to fill in some information and let the app do its work.
Similar is with the recruiting process. We had, and still do, recruiting agencies whose job is to look for talent and try to persuade them to join your company.
 
Enter LinkedIn: the world’s largest and most important business social platform thus far. And LinkedIn was launched in 2003, with what purpose? You guessed it - for recruiting the workforce.
 
Twenty years later headhunting agencies still exist, but to be on the hiring market and not to have a LinkedIn profile is almost unimaginable anymore.

 

So, let’s investigate what LinkedIn brings to the table, and which changes are happening as we speak that will make it even bigger.
