    Employee engagement is the emotional commitment an employee has to an organization and its goals. But employee engagement doesn’t mean the same thing to everyone. Unfortunately, only 1-in-3 employees are engaged, with the other roughly 70 percent costing businesses $300 billion annually in the U.S. With new and diverse people being born and entering the workforce every day, a tailored plan to engage them needs to be established.
