Engagement MAGIC®

By gathering and analyzing over two decades of employee engagement survey responses and numerous psychological studies, we distilled the five basic keys of employee engagement into meaning, autonomy, growth, impact, and connection, (i.e., M-A-G-I-C). Since we are all different, each of these keys plays a unique role in how engaged we are in our work (and life).

Based on over 28 million employee survey responses across 70 countries—the most extensive employee engagement survey database of its kind—ENGAGEMENT MAGIC® combines principles of psychology and motivation with solid business concepts. Written by internationally recognized experts in leadership and employee engagement, ENGAGEMENT MAGIC® provides actionable advice that will reduce employee attrition, encourage initiative, drive growth and profit, and increase personal engagement in one’s work.

Research-Based Employee Engagement Survey Questions

As an expert employee survey provider, we customize each survey to collect relevant and actionable feedback from your employees. We use specific engagement questions to measure your employees level of engagement along with actionable questions that measure employee satisfaction.

Employee engagement is much more than being content with pay and the ability to leave at 3 pm. That contentedness is merely job satisfaction, and though satisfaction is generally enough to retain employees, it’s not enough to ensure productivity. On the other hand, employee engagement does promote increased productivity.

The ENGAGEMENT MAGIC® Framework

MEANING Your work has purpose beyond the work itself. Two types of meaning contribute to engagement:
Inherent Meaning and Associated Meaning.

Autonomy The power to shape your work and environment in ways that allow you to perform at your best.
BOUNDARIES + FREEDOM + ACCOUNTABILITY = AUTONOMY

Growth Being stretched and challenged in ways resulting in personal and professional progress.
