The Impact of Leadership on Employee Engagement

By Rieke Weller

Research Paper (undergraduate) from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: 1,0, University of Aarhus (Management), language: English, abstract: An analysis of the relationship between leadership and employee engagement and the impact of the direct manager. This relation will be further examined through the practical example of Company X' annual employee engagement survey. Leadership has the potential to influence the factors that affect the engagement level of the workforce to a great extent and is a crucial element when developing and increasing employee engagement. The aim is to leverage employee engagement in order to reach a high performance within an organization. But the discrepancy between the perceived importance of engagement and the level of engagement that actually exists in corporations today presents a serious gap between employees, organizations and Human Resource professionals. When tying employees and employers together in an employment relationship, it is expected that organizations align the interests of their employees to those of the firm. This is essential to make sure that employees act in ways expected of the organization and aligned with the corporate objectives to positively impact the outcome.
