The Business Reporter, part of the Sunday Telegraph in the UK, asked 7 experts what is next for employee engagement?

Here is my abbreviated interpretation, using mostly their words, of what they believe:

Tony Thomson: A move to management by mutual consent

Frazer Rendell: Employees as players not pawns

Mark Quirk: Engagement at the center and real time measures

Claire Sporton: Amplify the voice of employees

Mark Allison: Engagement as a DNA type driver of the organization

Gary Cattermole: Stop using the buzzword and make engagement  inherent in what organizations do

Richard Lock: Get simple and move to engagement from people to engagement with people

I would agree with most of what was said. What do you think is next in the world of work for employee engagement?

I believe the future of engagement will be small, simple, significant, and sustainable as we engage every day with tactical and practical actions for the benefit of all: employees, organizations, customers, and other key stakeholders.
