There is a big difference between employee satisfaction and happiness. A satisfied employee shows up at work, does his or her job and leaves. On the other hand, when employees are emotionally committed to their employer, they are said to be highly engaged. Your employees are no longer working simply for a paycheck or promotion. Newer generations want to care about both their work and the organization they for which they do their job. Engaged employees bring in their full effort so that they contribute more to the organization's overall goals. Why does discretionary effort matter? Because it means that they are doing their job without being asked, lowering their need to be constantly supervised and increasing their productivity, levels of customer service, sales, profits, and goodwill.
