Ep 237 O.C. Tanner Proves the ROI of Employee Fulfillment and Culture
Denis Beausejour joins Bernie Borges to discuss insights from O.C. Tanner’s research on how employee fulfillment directly impacts workplace culture, retention, and performance. Denis is Managing Director at the 98 year old company with a stellar reputation for employee recognition and engagement solutions.
Dennis shares insights from O.C. Tanner’s highly acclaimed Global Culture Reports, highlighting the latest trends around generative care, mental health, and the critical role of leadership in fostering employee well-being. From practical strategies like the "difference maker" campaign to real-world examples of companies excelling at employee fulfillment, this conversation is packed with actionable ideas for leaders at every level.
🗝️ 3 Key Points Discussed
1️⃣ The Six Magnets of Culture: We explored the six crucial factors that foster long-term employee retention and satisfaction—purpose, opportunity, success, appreciation, well-being, and leadership—and how they shape a truly great work culture.
2️⃣ Fulfillment vs. Engagement: The conversation clarified the nuance between simply engaging employees and actively creating fulfillment by providing growth, connection, appreciation, and ownership, especially during challenging times like the pandemic.
3️⃣ The Role of Leadership: We discussed how leaders can drive fulfillment by supporting work-life balance, building community, recognizing individual contributions, and helping align personal and professional aspirations.
Main takeaway:
Focusing on genuine fulfillment, rather than just engagement metrics, leads to thriving individuals and organizations—fulfillment is at the heart of building purpose-driven teams that get good work done.
