Employees who are good at what they do and love what they do are more engaged. Employees who see their value, are appreciated and are openly trusted are more engaged. Employees who are given the freedom to own their performance and be held accountable for their impact are more engaged. Employees who feel capable, confident and competent are more engaged.
