"Studies reveal that disengaged employees are 18% less productive on average, and their disengagement leaks into customer interactions, harming service quality and brand loyalty."
"Disengaged employees contribute to a culture of compliance rather than innovation, problem-solving, and transformation, significantly hindering organizational progress."
"A disconnect between leadership and workforce is a more pressing concern than technical lag in adopting AI, as it erodes alignment and trust within organizations."
"GALLUP'S 2025 report shows global employee engagement declined to 21% in 2024, marking an alarming trend for business leaders focusing solely on AI investments."
The rise of AI presents a potential productivity growth of $4.4 trillion, yet corporations face a critical challenge: a disconnect between leadership and workforce. Only 1% of leaders consider their AI deployment mature, with 92% planning to increase investments. However, Gallup's report indicates declining employee engagement, now at 21%. Disengaged employees are less productive, which impacts customer service and innovation, resulting in costly staff turnover. Addressing workforce engagement is essential for harnessing AI’s promise and enhancing overall business performance.
