Metrics that Drive Employee Engagement
The ‘SPEAK’ Model is a holistic approach to assessing Employee Engagement, focusing on five crucial aspects: satisfaction, purpose, empowerment, alignment, and fostering a culture of recognition. By prioritizing employee well-being and creating an environment where they feel valued and supported, organizations can cultivate a culture of engagement, productivity, and success.
S – satisfaction
Well-being starts with clarity, support, and trust.
Employee satisfaction is vital for a positive workplace culture. It influences morale, motivation, and job performance, fostering a sense of value and engagement among employees.
E – empowerment
Autonomy is emotional oxygen.
Empowerment fuels psychological well-being. We help build systems that give employees ownership over their work and voice in decisions that affect them.
P – purpose
People need to know their work matters.
We guide leaders in making the mission real and relevant at every level—so employees feel connected, not just compliant.
A – alignment
Harmony beats hustle.
When goals, values, and day-to-day tasks align, stress decreases and momentum builds. We help teams recalibrate toward shared direction.
K – kudos
Appreciation unlocks potential.
Kudos—genuine recognition—boosts morale, strengthens connection, and fuels a positive emotional climate. We help build habits of celebration into the flow of work.
