To achieve this, staff will be surveyed to understand their interests, potential engagement initiatives will be developed accordingly, and staff participation will be diligently tracked.
The second key objective is to increase employee satisfaction score by 15% through surveys. The initiatives under this objective include implementing regular anonymous satisfaction surveys for all employees, analyzing the survey results to identify areas of dissatisfaction, and making necessary improvements based on the feedback received.
The third and final key objective moves into serious metrics by seeking to decrease staff resignation rate by a solid 5%. The initiatives leading up to this include implementing employee engagement and motivation programs, conducting regular employee feedback and satisfaction surveys, and ultimately improving the compensation and benefits package.
