For 11 years of my career I ran a digital marketing and brand agency. In the time I was there I worked on hundreds of brands for clients of all shapes and sizes, and in all fields and particularly loved the creative outcomes of the work we produced.
The term &lsquo;brand&rsquo; has a lot of different connotations. In retail, a brand often associates a product with it&rsquo;s manufacturer and gives a sense of identity and often value to the product. It can have tangible elements such as a logo, colours, typefaces, materials and slogans, all of which make the brand instantly recognisable and give it a sense of identity.
Good brands are consistent and well recognised. If you remove the logos and writing from a whole variety of consumer products you can still easily identify those brands by other facets such as colour and design.&nbsp;
Building an amazing brand inspires huge customer loyalty. The nirvana of any good brand is to inspire such deep rooted psychological love of the brand, that your customers won&rsquo;t consider other options. Personally I wouldn&rsquo;t consider any tech hardware options other than Apple.
The way that Apple products have been woven into the fabric of my everyday life means that it&rsquo;s different for me to move anywhere else now, but I also love the brand for a whole bunch of reasons including usability, design, marketing and of course the founder vision created by the late Steve Jobs.
For consumers, brands inspire loyalty. With that loyalty, your customers become sticky and keep on buying. But how does this brand loyalty transcend into your workforce?
&nbsp;
<h3>What is 'employer brand'?</h3>
In the same way that marketers create a compelling &lsquo;customer brand&rsquo; to inspire customer loyalty, so too must HR teams create a compelling &lsquo;employer brand&rsquo; that they can apply to the entire employee lifecycle.
All businesses have an employer brand. It&rsquo;s the way in which businesses differentiate themselves in the labour market to recruit, retain and engage people. It helps businesses gain a competitive edge in the recruitment of great people and establish greater credibility.&nbsp;
In the CIPD 2008 guide &lsquo;Employer Branding - A no nonsense approach&rsquo;, employer brand is defined as '...a set of attributes and qualities, often intangible, that makes an organisation distinctive, promises a particular kind of employment experience, and appeals to those people who will thrive and perform best in its culture'.
In the wider context of the business, a solid employer brand should be linked to a company&rsquo;s values, policies, people strategy and external brand. Without this there can be a huge misalignment between the type of people that the company hires and their ability to deliver the brand promise outlined by the marketing team.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Why is it so important?</h3>
Developing a high value &lsquo;employer brand&rsquo; can benefit a company in many tangible and intangible ways.&nbsp;
For marketers, a quality &lsquo;consumer brand&rsquo; makes it easier to attract, engage and retain customers and build extreme loyalty. This is known as the customer lifecycle. For HR people, adopting the same approach builds extreme loyalty with employees for the &lsquo;employee lifecycle&rsquo;
&lsquo;Employee lifecycle&rsquo; is the experience that an employee has with their employer. It can start way before they ever become an employee, but is associated with their experience of how they are recruited, onboarded, managed, rewarded, communicated to and ultimately how they exit.&nbsp;
Positive experiences in these areas will lead to a better &lsquo;employee experience&rsquo; and build an engaged employee that feels valued and respected by their employer. The payback here is that they usually want to work harder to adopt the company&rsquo;s mission , vision and values in their working behaviours. Even if a highly engaged employee chooses to leave the organisation, chances are they'll still add value by acting as a &lsquo;promoter&rsquo; of that organisation; telling everyone they know about their positive employee experience! Conversely a negative experience in one or all of these areas can have the opposite effect, as was experienced by Brewdog recently.
&nbsp;
<h3>How do you create and amazing employer brand?</h3>
This is where a blog could easily become a 100 page whitepaper. There is a written methodology to this, which is very similar to the marketing methodology around customer brands. This involves;
<ol>
<li>Discovery -&nbsp;Understanding more about your employees, your management and the&nbsp;current situation</li>
<li>Creation -&nbsp;Analysis the data from your discovery process and create an employee value proposition</li>
<li>Implementation -&nbsp;Getting the employee value proposition out there and embedding it into the culture</li>
<li>Maintenance -&nbsp;Ensuring that the company lives and breathes the employer brand through careful measurement and optimisation&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
This is not a one-off exercise, this is a strategic exercise and it&rsquo;s an ongoing exercise too. In just the same way that a consumer brand can be devalued overnight, so too can an employer brand so it&rsquo;s vitally important that building an employer brand is viewed as an exercise in continual improvement.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Make a start today - The discovery!</h3>
Without a good discovery (or good research) you run the risk of making the wrong decisions or even reversing some of the good you&rsquo;ve managed to achieve. I&rsquo;ve seen first hand how the car industry invests millions of dollars into market research to ensure that they make good decisions about the future of their products. These sums are huge, but the consequences can be billion dollar losses.
Using great technology and great methodology to achieve a great discovery is helpful. Running workshops with your senior management, running focus groups with your employees and conducting employee engagement surveys are a great start. If you have a great way to collect this data, to measure improvement and importantly to understand &lsquo;what good looks like&rsquo; then you&rsquo;re taking your first steps in the right direction.&nbsp;
And as a final thought, don&rsquo;t get hung-up on the scores - these are often vanity metrics. Instead invest your energy in the qualitative feedback that comes back from your employees. That&rsquo;s where the great ideas come from that help you build a brand that your employees really buy into.
&nbsp;
We&rsquo;re here to help you make that start. Drop us a message on our contact form and we&rsquo;ll show you how.

Why should it matter so much to your business?

Your Employer Brand

If you have a healthy relationship with the people in your team, a resignation shouldn&rsquo;t come as a surprise; here&rsquo;s why.
There are 3 reasons why a member of your team would resign;&nbsp;&nbsp;
- Career development,
- Personal circumstances
- Personal engagement in the business or team.
As a leader, you have an opportunity to see a problem emerging in every one of these circumstances. As such you should see a resignation coming. To understand more about how you can identify these problems, let&rsquo;s dig in a bit deeper.&nbsp;
&nbsp;
<h3>Career development</h3>
A key part of a leader's role is to actively manage the careers of their employees (for those who want it). As such, a well managed employee would stay in an organisation if presented with the right opportunities.&nbsp;
Leaders can have a huge impact on the progression of an individual in their team and beyond. This could be through creating opportunities for them to progress. But it might also be knowing when the opportunities have run out.
If you&rsquo;re working with your employees to understand what they want in their careers; you&rsquo;ll know if you&rsquo;re able to meet those needs. You&rsquo;ll know if their compensation is enough for them; if the next role they want to move into is achievable and if there are enough opportunities to keep them feeling challenged and valued.
So when they get contacted via LinkedIn about a &lsquo;great opportunity&rsquo;, you&rsquo;ll have a good sense of whether they are going to take the call or not. And whether that call might lead to a resignation.
There might even be times when you are expecting that resignation. You might even have been the catalyst. Maybe you&rsquo;ve been transparent and said that you don&rsquo;t think that new opportunities exist for them in the organisation in the future. Your work as a leader is done, they&rsquo;re ready to fly the nest!
&nbsp;
<h3>Personal circumstances</h3>
Good leaders should have an understanding of their employee&rsquo;s circumstances outside of work. This includes their health, their family and their personal motivations for coming to work. It&rsquo;s all part of taking care of the wellbeing of employees.
Having a good understanding of a person&rsquo;s personal circumstances will help you understand if a resignation might be on the horizon. This is not about being intrusive into employee&rsquo;s lives. It&rsquo;s about understanding the whole person. So when Dave&rsquo;s wife gets the big promotion in Scotland and they need to relocate, it isn't a complete surprise.
These types of resignations can still blindside you. People&rsquo;s circumstances can change in a moment (hello lottery win!). But they can also be the most preventable. It&rsquo;s possible to support employees through ill health, through caring responsibilities and even relocations, depending on the role.
&nbsp;
<h3>Personal engagement in the business or team</h3>
The final reason why someone might leave an organisation is a big one. They just don&rsquo;t enjoy it anymore.&nbsp;
Maybe the organisation has moved on and they didn&rsquo;t move with it, maybe they&rsquo;ve changed and the organisation hasn&rsquo;t. Maybe they&rsquo;ve fallen out of love with the vision and don&rsquo;t see their part in it anymore. Maybe their job is just not challenging them any more.
You should be able to get a feeling for an individual's personal engagement through open and honest communication. Having a strong relationship with your team will help you to understand where there might be cultural gaps opening up.
You can use tools such as employee feedback surveys to gain more insight. These can give you a sense of common challenges across a team and will help give you a starting point of where individual engagement might be waning.
If an unhappy employee has opened up to you about their personal engagement levels, it's an opportunity to have a conversation about whether it&rsquo;s something that you can fix. If it isn&rsquo;t, you can be honest and they can make an informed decision about their future. Again, when a resignation comes, it shouldn&rsquo;t be a surprise.
Let&rsquo;s be realistic, there is always going to be the occasional time you get caught out. Something you didn&rsquo;t see coming. But maybe think about your team now, which of the above reasons is the most likely reason you&rsquo;d end up with a resignation on your desk? Can you do something about it? If you can, go do it before it&rsquo;s too late!
&nbsp;
At Ten Space we can help you understand engagement levels in your team and capture individual feedback that helps you strengthen your team, reduce attrition and prevent surprises!<a href="http://www.spacehr.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;</a><a href="http://www.spacehr.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">www.tenspace.co.uk</a>

A resignation shouldn’t come as a surprise; here’s why.

Why ‘zero resignations' should come as a surprise

Diversity and Inclusion aren&rsquo;t new topics for organisations. UK Businesses have made some progress in diversifying the workforce. Mainly through legislation and increased awareness of the positive impact a diverse workforce can have on business performance and engagement.
Take for example, the improved&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mckinsey.com/featured-insights/diversity-and-inclusion/women-in-the-workplace" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">representation of women</a> in management roles. Yet there are still significant opportunities for improvement, both when it comes to gender diversity in organisations, and other under-represented groups too.
Where does belonging come in? The sense of belonging in a group is a fundamental human need. So much so, that we have adapted our behaviours to minimise our lack of belonging. In an organisational setting, this can negatively affect underrepresented groups, impacting on mental health, wellbeing, engagement, performance and the likelihood that they will progress to a leadership role.
For all groups, it&rsquo;s important that they see people they identify with in leadership positions. This can raise the question: Does someone like me belong and have the opportunity for success here?
&nbsp;
<h3>Diversity</h3>
75% of employees think<a href="https://www.quantumworkplace.com/future-of-work/diversity-and-inclusion-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;</a><a href="https://www.quantumworkplace.com/future-of-work/diversity-and-inclusion-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">more diversity</a> is needed in the workplace.
In a diverse workplace, employees with a wide range of characteristics and experiences work together. Visible traits of diversity include: age, gender, language, region, race &amp; skills. Invisible traits of diversity include: religion, culture, education, sexual orientation, socio-economic status.
Here are a few benefits of having a diverse workforce:
<ul>
<li>Innovation -&nbsp;Diverse people bring in different perspectives to solve a problem. This can happen fast and efficiently with diverse minds coming together.</li>
<li>Hiring &amp; Retention -&nbsp;High quality talent understands the value of diversity. Employers who support diverse work cultures have better chances to get and retain higher quality talent.</li>
<li>Brand Value -&nbsp;Diversity initiatives bring in reputation and brand value of organisations that work across cultures.</li>
<li>Engagement -&nbsp;When companies support D&amp;I initiatives, 83% are more&nbsp;<a href="https://www.glassdoor.com/employers/blog/diversity/?nabe=6392912005562368:1" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">actively engaged in their work</a>.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h3>Inclusion</h3>
48% of employees believe that<a href="https://www.quantumworkplace.com/future-of-work/diversity-and-inclusion-statistics" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;respect</a> is the most essential factor for a culture of inclusion.
Diversity does not exist without inclusion. Employees who feel included are likely to be more engaged with their team. Higher employee engagement drives higher levels of productivity, retention, and a company&rsquo;s overall success.
Here are a few ways approaches to increase inclusion:
<ul>
<li>Open communication -&nbsp;Leaders and teams need to value each other&rsquo;s thoughts, opinions and ideas. Employees should feel confident &amp; safe to communicate openly. Transparency, mutual respect and acceptance is more likely to drive inclusion. An anonymous&nbsp;<a href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/platform" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">survey</a>&nbsp;tool can be a great way to create safety in providing feedback to support an open communication culture.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Leadership training -&nbsp; Leaders have the biggest influence in creating an inclusive workplace. Enough training and support must be given to new leaders to build inclusion into their leadership style and make it a fundamental part of how they manage a team.</li>
<li>Showcase inclusive culture -&nbsp;Organisations need to show that they promote an inclusive culture.&nbsp; As an example, sponsoring events and activities to promote inclusive culture to be a visible ally to under-represented groups.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h3>Belonging</h3>
Belonging has a strong correlation to commitment and motivation at the workplace. It directly influences employee satisfaction, performance and retention.<a href="https://workplaceinsight.net/less-than-one-third-of-uk-employees-feel-they-belong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;Only&nbsp;</a><a href="https://workplaceinsight.net/less-than-one-third-of-uk-employees-feel-they-belong/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">32%</a> of UK office workers feel as though they completely belong within their company. There is definitely room for improvement.
Here are some benefits to belonging in the workplace:
<ul>
<li>Good for business -&nbsp;If workers feel like they belong, companies reap large benefits. High belonging is linked to an increase in job performance. This results in a drop in turnover and an increase in annual savings for the business.</li>
<li>Belonging fosters team collaboration -&nbsp;When employees feel like they belong, they&rsquo;re much more likely to share ideas and work together toward a common goal. Workplace belonging can help teams feel more inspired, understood, and trusted.</li>
<li>Allies prevent exclusion -&nbsp;When employees feel they have allies committed to their inclusion, they&rsquo;re less likely to feel excluded from projects. Even one ally that shows fair and inclusive leadership can foster a sense of belonging in a team.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
<h3>Being an ally as a leader</h3>
Diversity and inclusion is becoming increasingly important for keeping employees engaged.&nbsp;74% of employees believe<a href="https://www.hr.com/en/resources/free_research_white_papers/the-state-of-employee-engagement-in-2018-mar2018_jeqfvgoq.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">&nbsp;leadership</a>&nbsp;is the biggest influence on engagement.&nbsp;Talent leaders need to step up and ensure their organisations foster more inclusive workplaces. This will increase employees&rsquo; level of engagement and enhance bottom-line performance.
If staff have low trust in leaders or poor relationships with line managers, it&rsquo;s highly likely to manifest in disengagement. If you want to improve employee engagement, start with D&amp;I - it has a multiplier effect.&nbsp;
Here&rsquo;s 3 ways you can become an ally as a leader in your workplace:
<ul>
<li>Work hard to encourage participation from everyone on your team -&nbsp;If you&rsquo;re leading a meeting or a project, explicitly invite participation from everyone, and if someone has not contributed, invite them to share their thoughts either in the moment or afterward.</li>
<li>Acknowledge people&rsquo;s expertise and skill -&nbsp;People with underrepresented identities often find their expertise and skills are regularly questioned and held to higher standards. Make it a point to acknowledge their expertise and skills, and solicit their opinions and ideas.</li>
<li>Recognise people&rsquo;s achievements -&nbsp;One of the best ways to share with your colleagues, team members and the world what someone has accomplished is by recognizing their achievements.&nbsp;<a href="https://www.spacehr.co.uk/blogs/3-keys-points-to-getting-recognition-right-in-your-team" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">Check out our tips</a>&nbsp;on getting recognition right in your team.</li>
</ul>
&nbsp;
A great way to discover where your organisation is lacking in D&amp;I is through anonymous feedback surveys. At Ten Space, we can help you check in on the engagement and wellbeing of your team. Check out how we can help at<a href="http://www.spacehr.co.uk/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer"> www.tenspace.co.uk</a>.

Employee engagement is crucial for accountancy firms as it directly impacts productivity, client satisfaction and firm reputation. Engaged employees are more likely to go the extra mile to understand client needs, provide tailored solutions and build long-term relationships. High levels of engagement reduce turnover rates, saving recruitment costs and preserving institutional knowledge.
                

Measure employee engagement in accountancy firms through regular surveys assessing factors like job satisfaction, work-life balance and alignment with firm values. Include questions on communication effectiveness, career development opportunities and recognition. Analyse survey results to identify areas for improvement and gauge overall engagement levels.

 A great employee engagement platform will give you the data, insight and feedback you need to enact real change in your organisation. Using a third-party platform adds an extra layer of trust. By segmenting the data from engagement surveys, you can uncover valuable insights specific to different employee groups. You can find where your problems are coming from and create targeted actions.

How it works

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">What is Employee Engagement?</h3>To put it in its simplest form: Employee engagement is the level of commitment, enthusiasm and dedication employees have towards their work and the organisation. Enhanced employee engagement reveals itself in employees reaching their full potential and delivering exceptional performance at work.</div>

Measuring employee engagement in your legal firm can be achieved through regular employee surveys. This first step is critical in gathering data that will help you make decisions. Ideally you should be surveying your business every month so you can quickly observe any drops in engagement and affect a plan quickly to resolve issues. Regular surveys provide the data you need to build a strategic engagement plan based on real information, not gut feeling.


Using an ‘engagement specific’ survey platform will help you gather data faster, more securely and more accurately. The right platform will also make it easier for people to submit their responses in a way that’s easy for them. You’ll be able to compare results over time to analyse trends. By segmenting the data from engagement surveys, you can uncover valuable insights specific to different employee groups. You can find where your problems are coming from and create targeted actions.

Once you’ve done your first survey, things will become instantly clearer. You’ll start to see the hotpots in your company by a variety of segmentation criteria such as team, location, gender, role and tenure. Open-ended feedback will often help provide a solution to the challenges you’re seeing. We’re always amazed how much insight a first survey provides to our customers from a high level right into the detail. Measuring consistent data-points over time will help gain a deep understanding of how to build your strategic plan.


Build your employee engagement strategy

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">High engagement means higher performance</h3>Employee engagement is a critical activity for professional services firms. Retaining your high performing people will help you build a high performing legal practice. 

But if you don’t have a way to measure engagement and understand when engagement is dropping, you run the risk of losing your top performers and a potential domino effect of top talent.</div>

<div><h3 class="heading pb-4">What is the Employee Engagement model?</h3>Some believe engagement is solely about having happy employees, but engagement goes beyond this. Enhanced employee engagement reveals itself when your employees reach their full potential and deliver exceptional performance at work.At Ten Space we use a simple model. It helps you explore engagement in your organisation. It shows you where you already excel and where you need to focus to improve.</div>

When your employees feel connected to the mission of the company, their engagement improves significantly. They find meaning and purpose in their work, knowing that their efforts contribute to something larger than themselves. They become more invested in the success of your organisation, leading to higher productivity, increased job satisfaction and a stronger sense of belonging within the team.

A great leader inspires and motivates their team members, earning their trust and respect. They provide clear direction, guidance, and support, allowing employees to perform their best and reach their full potential. A great leader creates a sense of empowerment, job satisfaction and loyalty among the team, leading to enhanced employee engagement and overall success.

 Employee engagement improves when your employees feel fulfilled in their role. When individuals find their work meaningful and aligned with their values, they are motivated to invest their time and energy into their work, going above and beyond to achieve goals. This positive mindset and attitude contribute to increased productivity, stronger teamwork and a happier work environment, ultimately enhancing overall employee engagement.

The highest-performing teams have one thing in common: psychologically safe workplaces. Psychologically safe workplaces promote healthier, more productive and more inclusive workforces. They also provide the environment in which innovation can thrive and people can perform at their best.

Ten Space is the platform to gather regular employee feedback. Every month, your employees are able to offer the feedback and insight you need to create positive change throughout your organisation.

The Ten Space engagement model underpins the data. It ensures a consistent approach to capturing feedback that can be measured over time. Our platform helps you build the perfect question set to understand the real issues preventing high engagement. 

 Ten Space does all the hard work, saving you days of admin. Questions are sent via email, WhatsApp or SMS and responses are gathered back in the platform. No matter where your employees are or how they work, there is always an easy way for them to provide their feedback. 

See responses as they're being submitted. Our dashboards display real-time information for you and your managers to access valuable insights at any time. This allows you to spend less time collating data and more time taking the actions that matter to build higher engagement.
