Employee engagement has been one of the most talked-about topics in human capital management for twenty-five years. And yet, despite the attention of professionals from every area of the business world—or maybe because of it—the term itself has never gained a universal definition. There’s no reason it couldn’t, though. What it’s not. Engaged employees are more motivated than disengaged employees.

It’s not just button-pushing. Asked to bring their whole selves to the job, modern knowledge workers crave work that engages their whole selves—including their emotions. Do emotions even belong in the workplace?

An idea as powerful as employee engagement seems like it should have been around forever. Businesses have always employed people, after all, and people have always done their best work when they’ve cared about the outcome of their efforts. But managers haven’t always talked about the need to engage employees the way they’re talking about it today. It turns 25 years old this month, to be exact.

What exactly is employee engagement? We know it’s a topic trending in every corner of the L&D world. We know it has something to do with being “all-in” on work. Mostly, though, we know that no one knows quite what it is. Dig into the issue for a few minutes and you’re likely to see more definitions of engagement than you have employees to engage. You don’t achieve it, you maintain it.

One of the most common terms around recruiting these days is candidate experience.
