One of the most interesting and engaging people I have had the privilege to meet is Jonathan Austin founder of Best Companies and an expert in workplace engagement. Here are the eight key factors Best Companies research shows matter in becoming an employer of choice

“Leadership
How employees feel about the head of the organisation, senior managers, and the company’s values and principles

My Manager
How employees feel about and communicate with their direct manager

Personal Growth
What employees feel about training and their future prospects

Wellbeing
How employees feel about stress, pressure at work, and work life balance

My Team
Employees feelings towards their immediate colleagues and how well they work together

Giving Something Back
The extent to which employees feel their organisation has a positive impact on society

My Company
The level of engagement employees have for their job and organisation

Fair Deal
How happy employees are with their pay and benefits”

Would you rate your organisation as remarkable in each of these areas?

Be remarkable
