Enhancing Employee Engagement and Performance with the Kirkpatrick Model

Are your employee engagement initiatives working? Have you actually asked your employees what they want? Engagement alone, without an effective strategy, won't drive performance and achieve organizational goals.

Join us for the latest episode of the Kirkpatrick Podcast, where hosts Vanessa Milara Alzate and James D. Kirkpatrick have an insightful discussion about enhancing employee engagement to drive performance. Tune in for practical strategies for connecting employees to the organization's mission and goals, defining critical behaviors, and creating a culture of open communication and continuous improvement.

Episode highlights:

• Prioritize Purposeful Engagement: Engagement isn't just about creating a feel-good atmosphere; it’s about driving real performance outcomes.
• Leverage Mission Alignment: Employees perform better when they see their work contributing to the bigger picture.
• Create Compelling Change: Develop critical behaviors collaboratively so both manager and employee agree these actions move the needle on performance.
• Evaluate Proactively: Move beyond a one-time assessment and implement continuous evaluation to gauge the program's effectiveness over time.
• Gather 360-Degree Feedback: Triangulate your data sources to find the truth and reveal actionable ways that employees can improve their performance and how you can support them.

With personal anecdotes about bosses who hit the mark, and others who dropped the ball, listeners will gain valuable tips for how to convey clear expectations in a digestible and motivating way, collaborate with employees to set key performance indicators tied to organizational outcomes, and collect honest, constructive feedback that will drive performance.
