The other day, I read a piece in the July/August 2017 issue of Human Resource Executive, and it sparked something that I have been thinking about for some time. How much real value is there in the once-a-year-make-the-back-of-the-house pretty engagement survey? Fellow HR professionals, how often have you had to practically place guns to the heads of your managers to ensure their people are filling out questionnaires? All we want is for those employees to love us once a year.
