Employee Engagement SOS?
<p>Is employee engagement a sinking ship?</p><p>According to Gallup, engagement is taking on water, with the firm’s frequently repeated survey findings showing an engagement rate of 31% — a 10-year low. But a closer look surfaces insights that lead us to believe employee engagement may be very much afloat.</p><p>We break it down in this AI-assisted conversation, based on the original Heigh Ho article <a target="_blank" href="https://heighho.substack.com/p/employee-engagement-gallup-merberg">Employee Engagement SOS</a>?

Understanding Evidence-Based Practice for Employee Wellness Leaders
<p> “How do we do an evidence-based wellness program when there is no evidence?”</p><p>This was a question asked of me by a distinguished wellness director. She also happened to be a physician who understood better than most the meaning of evidence-based practice. </p><p>You may agree or disagree that there is no evidence supporting specific employee wellness interventions, but for now, the more important questions are: How do you decide? And what is evidence anyway? </p><p>I've come to realize that most wellness leaders, as well as HR directors and CEOs, don't care about evidence and aren't even persuaded by it when it's presented to them. </p><p>So be it. But as today's episode makes clear, you'll be better equipped for wellness success if you understand what scientific evidence is; what its hallmarks are; and why — and this piece often gets lost — wellness programs should not be directed exclusively by evidence. </p><p>Wellness program leaders are especially likely to benefit from today's AI-assisted deep dive into evidence, as the conversation is shaped with your needs in mind. </p><p>To keep it tight, I had to omit some things I would have liked to include. But only the nerdiest listeners will object to their absence: The difference between prospective and retrospective studies; the definition and value of cluster randomized controlled studies, which are an important part of the scientific literature on wellness; more details about bias, systematic review, and meta-analysis; and the role of gray literature, like those white papers produced by commercial enterprises and nonprofit agencies.</p><p>Be that as it may, in an era when we all get drawn into conversations, especially around science, regarding what's true and what isn't, anyone willing to spend a few minutes with some attention on this lively, practical dialog will learn something relevant to your everyday life. </p><p>Off we go!</p><p>[Subscribe to Bob Merberg’s Heigh Ho newsletter at https://heighho.substack.com]</p> <br/><br/>This is a public episode.
