Connection and engagement are two very popular buzz words in the HR industry today. We all have an idea as to what they mean, but how do we make these words personal and meaningful for our employees? With today’s workforce spanning five generations, the words “connection” and “engagement” have very different meanings for each of these groups. Millennials connect with their peers, employers, and even their favorite brands via their Smartphones. Baby Boomers may connect by reading a printed newspaper or speaking to a customer service representative to help them better understand a service or product, while Gen-Xers may prefer a combination of electronic and printed communication.
The challenge from an HR standpoint then becomes creating personalized and meaningful connections with employees that maximize engagement with their benefits and their company. It may seem like a daunting task, considering everyone’s preference for receiving information is different, but it doesn’t have to be. By managing and integrating information, such as HR benefits onto one platform, it makes the task feel less insurmountable.
