Companies should address poor communication, lack of transparency, and problematic managerial actions to battle employee disengagement, according to a report from the Simmons University Institute for Inclusive Leadership.
The report focuses on women and suggests that addressing these barriers can drive performance, improve culture, and help all employees thrive.
The study found that women are far from reaching the 'always thriving' mark and recommends clear, open, and transparent dialogue, access to honest information, and addressing poor leadership behaviors as solutions.
Managers should focus on clear strategic direction, meaningful feedback, and providing clarity and autonomy to address employee motivation.
