By Equoranda, an organization of training committed to developing the engagement and the efficiency of employees
Employee engagement in business is more than ever a strategic issue. The Gallup 2025 report*, just published, confirms a worrying global trend: the level of engagement and employee well-being fell from 23% to 21%.
A disengagement that would cost nearly $438 billion in lost productivity. However, in France, a slight positive shift is being felt, with an increase of 7% to 8%.
An encouraging signal, which calls for accelerating the process of developing more engaging and efficient work environments.
What Gallup recommends to (really) make a difference
The report highlights three key levers for improving engagement within organizations. At Equoranda, these levers have always been at the heart of our approach:
> 1. Train managers
L' engagement managers also fell: from 30% to 27%.
A worrying figure, especially when we know that only 44% of them have benefited from training .
👉 Our Modern Management Fundamentals® training courses are specifically designed to strengthen your professional effectiveness and your committed leadership posture.
> 2. Transmit coaching techniques to managers
According to Gallup, a manager trained in coaching can improve their performance by 20 to 28% .
👉 With our NEWS® Manager Coach and NEWS® Manager Team Leader courses, we help managers adopt a coaching posture, help their teams grow, and develop confidence, autonomy and engagement .
> 3. Offer ongoing support
The figures are clear: long-term support improves managers' well-being by 32% .
👉 This is why we design continuing training programs that anchor learning over time, in the service of collective performance.
And in concrete terms, how does Equoranda work?
Our belief is simple: an engaged employee is one who feels useful, recognized, and growing . To achieve this, we support leaders, managers, and teams around three pillars:
- THE VISION
To create and share the vision of your company or project to help align your teams and generate more engagement strategic issues. - MANAGEMENT
to develop the effectiveness of your managers. - RELATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS
To develop everyone’s “soft skills” to improve communication and interpersonal relationships.
98%
This is the average satisfaction rate of our trainees who praise the short and long term impact of our training and coaching for their effectiveness anchored in the professional reality of each individual.
