Dayforce Pulse of Talent Report: Empathetic Leadership Essential to Balance Employee Wants and Business Needs
08 Fevereiro 2024 - 9:00AM
Dayforce, Inc. (NYSE: DAY; TSX: DAY), a global human capital
management (HCM) leader that makes work life better, today released
results from its 14th Annual Pulse of Talent report. Findings show
that increased empathy from leadership is a cost-effective, and
often overlooked, productivity lever within an organization.
Almost half of respondents (48%) agreed that their organization
empathizes with employees. Among those who disagreed, 90% said
having leaders show more empathy would make a positive difference
in their work life, including improving their job satisfaction
(52%), improving their job performance (39%), increasing their
productivity (37%), improving mental health/levels of burnout
(48%), and making them more loyal (41%).
Additionally, more than 8 in 10 (81%) workers surveyed said
their employer made organizational changes in the last year. While
change and innovation are central to today’s workforce experience,
organizations can mitigate some of the challenges created by
transformation to benefit both employee and employer. The report,
which surveyed 8,751 employees at companies with at least 100
employees from around the globe, found that:
- Stress is high: 70% of respondents say more
aggressive performance goals/targets have increased stress levels.
When employees didn’t reach performance goals, 43% said it caused
them to lose motivation.
- Burnout and flight risk remain big concerns:
More than 8 in 10 (81%) respondents said they experienced burnout
in the previous 12 months, nearly the same level for three years
running. Flight risk (69%) was essentially flat from last year
despite growing uncertainty in the job market.
- Trust is lacking: Only half (56%) of
respondents say they trust their employers, and only 55% say their
employers trust their employees.
- Understanding and action are needed: 91% of
respondents said employers can take actions to help increase their
productivity, including creating better work-life balance (37%),
hiring more people on their team (32%), skills development (29%),
and more flexible work schedules (29%).
“Our research shows employers are caught in a balancing act
between a need for increased efficiencies to stay competitive in
the market while safeguarding employee wellbeing and trust, which
has been in flux since the pandemic,” said Katie Meyers, VP Global
Talent Management and Development, Dayforce. “The good news is that
tools and initiatives are readily available to help both sides of
this equation meet the challenges of an ever-changing workplace and
a boundless workforce.”
The survey found 85% of respondents approved of upgrading
workplace technology, with 69% saying new tech investments have
increased their productivity in the past year and 39% reporting
they have decreased their stress.
In addition, 50% of respondents think that artificial
intelligence (AI) can improve their productivity at work, and 80%
of surveyed employees were at least slightly interested in their
employer using AI to recommend new internal career and skills
development opportunities.
