This document provides recommendations on how to measure individual employee engagement and whether to aggregate this data to an enterprise view. It demonstrates how the use of a strategic framework for employee engagement determines the key aspects that drive employee engagement, and how a framework of metrics can be developed that link positive or negative outcomes to one or more of the strategic drivers, to link cause and effect.

The document also demonstrates the linkage between individual engagement and the role and performance of management at all levels to understand and manage the conditions that impact actual engagement. It demonstrates the complexity and interconnectedness of values, behaviours, processes, systems, and relationships that create a system of inter-dependency responsible for the achievement of optimum employee engagement.
