BZ (Barometr Zaangażowania): Thank you for finding time to tell us about engagement. Prof. Bakker, many practitioners and scientists used to say that the outburst of interest in employee engagement, or work engagement, which we witnessed about 10 years ago, was just a fashion. They were wrong: the interest is not decreasing but continues to grow. How do you think, why?
AB (Arnold Bakker) To put it in simple terms: due to the specifics of the contemporary world of work, in order to compete effectively, companies must not only recruit the top talent, but also be able to inspire their employees and enable them to use their capabilities to the full at work. What they need is employees who are engaged with their work!
BZ: So how would you describe an engaged employee then?
AB: Well, in a nutshell: bursting with energy, dedicated to his or her work, and immersed in daily work activities. An engaged employee is proactive and committed to high quality performance standards – he or she strives to excel at work.
BZ: No wonder they're in demand! I'd even say that if employers aimed for such human resources, this would be Frederick Winslow Taylor's "dream come true". As we all remember, nearly hundred years ago he said that the maximum prosperity of the employer has to be coupled with the maximum prosperity of the employee, which means also enabling the staff to do, to the greatest extent possible, such work which matches their natural abilities.
AB: Indeed, work engagement is an example of a positive organizational psychology concept, related with sustainable growth – and flourishing, with respect to both organization and employee.
BZ: Before we define engagement, could we clarify how it differs from other work-related constructs, such as – for instance – job satisfaction?
