Only 21% of the Workforce Globally are Engaged. Whaaat !

Globally, 21% of Staff Are Engaged 

According to the well-respected Gallop organization, as surveyed in 2024 and published in 2025, a massive 79% of staff scored low to 'not engaged'.

If we were to break that figure down, many of that 79% would be actively searching for at least a new position and more likely, a new employer.

Others, for their own reasons, will choose to stay in their current position and with that organization.

Likely, many of these people will be at work physically, but will just be ‘going through the motions’.

The survey was conducted by the Gallup organization and reports global results. The cost to organizations through this lack of engagement, therefore lack of productivity, lack of innovation, and simply, a lack of caring about what the disengaged employees are feeling, is in the hundreds of billion dollars.

Engagement is simply an outcome of leadership. 
Poor leadership: poor engagement.

Positive, exemplary leadership builds engagement.

Leadership builds purpose and passion.

When team members are inspired and committed to the ‘shared vision’ they all WANT to get the best results.

And when the team members know they will be ‘enabled’ to perform at their best AND always recognized for their successes, the engagement scores soar.

Exemplary leadership does this.

And it’s not hard.
