  5. Successful businesses depend on high employee-employer ties to increase engagement.Keeping in touch with your team is super important because it makes them work harder, do better quality work, and stick around longer. So, staying connected with your staff is key to their happiness and the company doing well.

  6. Great article, Ranga. I can see you have used real time examples in this piece of work - excellent! Though I think your examples primarily focus on Google and Zappos which are technological companies. It would be good to see a broader range of industries (e.g. Healthcare, retail, manufacturing etc). This would provide a better wholesome understanding of how employee engagement strategies vary and develop across different sectors. "At Toyota Motor Corporation, the emphasis on cross-training and employee feedback channels has led to a more engaged workforce. Employees appreciate the opportunity for skill development and feel empowered to contribute ideas for enhancing productivity."(Johnson, R et al, 2019)
