    ASK THE EXPERT
Q: I keep hearing a lot about “employee engagement.” Isn’t that just about retaining your workers?
A:

Not quite. Employee engagement focuses on the HR and management practices that will motivate and retain your best performers. Retention alone – staying with an organization or longevity – is not necessarily a reflection of a motivated, productive employee. For more information, see the Employee Engagement article below.
