Employee Communications
Why It Matters

According to Gallup's 2026 State of the Global Workplace report, low employee engagement in 2025 cost the global economy an estimated $10 trillion in lost productivity. Gallup found 20% of employees are engaged, which is the lowest it's been since 2020. Over the past three years, manager engagement has dropped nine percentage points.

 

Communicating with employees using a variety of channels helps improve employee engagement by building trust, boosting morale, enhancing collaboration, promoting innovation, and reducing uncertainty. Manager and leadership communication is an important part of the mix too! Gallup found 70% of team engagement is attributable to managers.
