Whitepaper
Our people are our superpower
Inspiring creativity, commitment and connection at Foundever™
Over the past few years, you’ve probably fallen victim to the cautionary headlines on your newsfeed like: “Is your employee thinking of leaving?”; “The mass walk-out”; and “The quiet quitting”.
And while you shouldn’t believe everything you read, the numbers don’t lie:
Over half of employees globally have expressed some level of intent to leave their job.
Only 23% of the world’s employees were engaged at work in 2022.
Low engagement costs the global economy $8.8 trillion.1
It’s safe to say a sizable shift has taken place that has rattled the global workforce, and it’s made at least one thing crystal clear: Organizations must adapt to meet employees where they’re at. At Foundever™, we have studied the impact of people sentiment for years and have concluded one concrete truth that we’ve molded our organization around, which has, in return, resulted in a massive increase in engagement and employee satisfaction. Put simply, the more engaged and satisfied our employees are, the happier our customers are, and the better our business outcomes. Having a people-first mentality has fortified almost every aspect of our organizational goals. To learn what actions to take to empower and engage your employees, you need to have a strong grasp on what’s happening in the world, what technologies are emerging, and where global sentiment in the workforce stands today. That said, in this whitepaper, we break down:
Current global workforce: Sentiment is suffering
