<p>With the global economy looking like it has returned to pre-recession levels, 2015 has brought with it a shift in emphasis. With a healthier economy comes more mobility in the labor market- making employee engagement as urgent as ever. Turnover is up, essential skills remain elusive, multi-generation workplaces are the new norm and a technology-obsessed world has created opportunities and demand for a variety of new working set ups, ergo employers have a lot to deal with. How organizations engage their employees under these evolving conditions goes some way to identifying who wins the war for the best talent. In this year’s Global Perspectives Report we examine the employee perspective of these HR challenges. Through a global survey of 7,295 employees across 20 countries we have gathered perceptions of the employee experience in a range of workplaces. We have measured employee engagement levels and identified what is driving engagement, we have identified differences in the perceptions between key demographic groups and compared the views of leaders with the front-line. Our report provides a comprehensive narrative of the findings, including insight into strategies for addressing the pertinent issues and viewpoints from our specialist thought leaders.<span> </span></p>
