Engaged Educators
Engage Students
The most successful institutions and school systems invest in their most important asset -- the people who inspire and support student success. Gallup provides the analytics and advice to create engaged, inclusive work cultures that improve organizational and student outcomes.
The Impact of Employee Engagement in Educational Institutions
Employees who are engaged are involved in, enthusiastic about, and committed to their work and workplace. They remain at their organization longer, are better advocates for their brand and recommend their organization as a great place to work. Engaged employees are also less costly to their employer -- institutions with more engaged employees spend less in healthcare costs and report lower absenteeism and turnover rates.
And, most importantly, highly engaged educators and staff members produce more engaged and emotionally attached students, with lower levels of absenteeism, higher academic achievement and greater levels of on-time completion.
