Businesses are actively seeking to drive behaviour among their\nemployees and are tailoring their strategies to do exactly that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEmployee engagement begins with an open channel of\ncommunication between head office and the entire workforce and yet traditional\ncommunication methods typically exclude frontline employees,\u201d said Gys Kappers,\nCEO of Wyzetalk. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThis award shows how Wyzetalk is helping\norganisations, like Sasol, to be more productive and responsive by digitising\norganisational processes like payslip and leave processing &#8211; resulting in\nreduced overheads and improved service delivery.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cEngagement strategies today need to look beyond just\ncreating an information-rich and open work environment and look at\nincorporating employee experience to ensure that employees are satisfied and\nhappy in the workplace on all fronts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cData is a valuable metric, but we also cannot ignore employee behaviours and their impact on performance. By making use of people analytics, consistent communication and feedback, companies are gaining a much deeper understanding into areas such as performance, sentiment, recruitment and retention \u2013 critical areas of business performance. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;We are incredibly proud to receive this award. Industry recognition such as this is a testament to the work we\u2019re doing and the incredible results we are seeing with our clients, including Anglo American, De Beers Group, RCL Foods, Sasol, Sun International, Shoprite and Woolworths.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wyzetalk, a leading employee engagement company that connects large organisations with their frontline workers to improve communication, increase engagement and drive business performance, has been named Employee Engagement Consultancy\/Vendor of the Year at the 2019 African Employee Engagement Awards.
