Companies in the U.S. dedicate a significant amount of time and resources to improve employee engagement, spending an estimated $100 billion annually on initiatives such as surveys, measurement and monitoring tools, and programs — yet most efforts fall short.
According to Gallup, only 23% of global employees and 32% of the U.S. workforce are engaged. Low engagement costs the global economy $8.8 trillion and accounts for 9% of the global GDP.For many companies, the root cause of low employee engagement may have less to do with internal issues and may actually lie with one, often-overlooked area: executive functioning skills.
