Key Takeaways

What’s keeping your employees loyal — and what’s pushing them away?

The reality is that most employees don’t feel truly engaged at work, and it’s showing in the numbers. Up to two-thirds of employees are considering leaving their jobs. Even more concerning? Many don’t feel strongly one way or the other, meaning they’re just waiting for a better offer.

So, what’s missing? Why are so many workers disengaged, and what can you do to turn things around?

The key to retention isn’t just better perks — it’s meaningful recognition, a strong sense of belonging, and a workplace culture that truly values employees.

Why leadership needs to play a bigger role in culture

When it comes to company culture, leadership can’t afford to sit on the sidelines. Yet, many employees feel their leaders aren’t doing enough to nurture a positive workplace. Nearly half say leadership is minimally or not at all committed to improving culture, and trust in senior leaders is low.

This disconnect has real consequences — culture and leadership are key drivers of employee satisfaction and engagement.

In Achievers’ Employee Engagement and Retention Report 2020, you’ll discover why leadership’s role in company culture is more critical than ever and how a lack of commitment can hurt employee retention and performance.

Ready to create a stronger culture?

Leadership is at the heart of a thriving company culture. When employees don’t feel valued, they disengage or leave —  and that’s a trend no company can afford. The good news? Consistent, meaningful recognition can make a real difference. It’s a simple yet powerful way to rebuild trust, boost engagement, and align your culture with your business goals.
