Employee Engagement vs Satisfaction
1 PagesThe text explains that while employee satisfaction is important, it is only one part of true engagement. Satisfaction is transactional and focuses on basic needs such as pay, safety, tools, and respect, resulting in short-term happiness that is largely controlled by the organization.

It is built on long-term feelings of meaning, growth, autonomy, impact, and connection, and is a shared responsibility between the employer and the employee.
