How to Increase Retention and Productivity through Belonging at Work
Employees with a strong sense of belonging are three times more likely to be productive and committed to their jobs. The Achievers Workforce Institute (AWI) Belonging Model identifies five pillars of belonging: welcomed, known, included, supported, and connected. When workers feel all five of these factors they are three times more likely to feel at strong sense of belonging.
According to recent AWI research, 77% of HR leaders are worried about a coming recession, and the #1 concern is increasing productivity. In this panel discussion, we look at the role belonging plays in driving critical business outcomes, and talk about how you can use technology to foster a strong sense of belonging for every employee.
Join us to learn:
- How companies can create a sense of belonging in the hybrid workplace
- The Five Pillars: how to create a culture of belonging
