Employee engagement & Leadership developmentTHE OSICS NETWORK
Employee engagement is a critical aspect of any business. In today’s competitive business landscape, having a highly engaged and motivated workforce is essential for success.
However, many businesses struggle with issues of employee disengagement, lack of mobilization, and low motivation. These challenges can have significant consequences on productivity, profitability, and overall organizational performance and culture.
The consequences of employee disengagement and lack of motivation can be far-reaching, impacting various aspects of your business:
Decreased productivity and efficiency
Employees may not feel adequately engaged or valued. As a result, they may lack motivation and passion for their work. This can lead to decreased productivity and decrease in level of innovation in the development of new drugs and therapies. When employees are not engaged, they may be less likely to collaborate, share ideas, or go the extra mile to achieve breakthroughs.
Increase in absenteeism and turnover rates
If employees feel undervalued and see limited opportunities for career growth, they may become disengaged and demotivated. This can lead to increased absenteeism as employees may feel less committed to their work and more likely to take unplanned leaves. Additionally, the lack of career development prospects may prompt talented employees to seek better opportunities elsewhere, resulting in higher turnover rates directly impacting the productivity.
Poor customer satisfaction and decreased loyalty
Poor customer satisfaction and decreased loyalty can impact loss of business, backorders, impacting brand reputation and customer loyalty, lack of trust in product.
Reduced innovation and creativity
This can lead to reduced innovations as employees may miss opportunities to share ideas, exchange knowledge, or work together on multidisciplinary projects. Without effective collaboration, the company may struggle to leverage the collective expertise of its workforce, limiting its ability to innovate
Negative impact on overall company culture
Disengaged or demotivated employees can contribute to a toxic work environment, affecting the company culture and employee morale, resulting in silos and a fragmented work environment, leading to a decreased sense of unity and shared purpose.
Loss of competitive advantage in the market
This can lead to delayed drug development and product launches. Disengaged employees may lack the motivation to work efficiently, resulting in slower progress in research and development activities. This delay can give competitors an advantage, as they may bring similar drugs to market sooner, gaining a larger market share.

* VUCA stands for Volatility, Uncertainty, Complexity, and Ambiguity. It is a term that originated in the military world but has since been adopted by businesses to describe the current business environment. The VUCA world is characterized by rapid change, unpredictability, and ambiguity.
How we can add value in your organisation? By connecting the dots with employees and management to embrace cultural changes.
In one organisation, during a transformative phase, we recognized the importance of employee engagement and collaboration as key factors to ensure success. Through insightful workshops, we analyzed various aspects of workforce, including morale levels, team dynamics, and management involvement. It became evident that there were gaps in employee morale, collaborations, team building, and the methods of recognizing achievements and celebrations. To address these challenges, we conducted workshops with ground-level employees and shop floor supervisors, allowing us to understand their perspectives and concerns. By connecting the dots with management, we identified different models of mindset and behaviour that needed improvement. With a focused approach and open communication, we successfully implemented strategies to boost employee morale, encourage teamwork, and enhance management engagement.
