HR.com's HR Research Institute Announces 'The Future of Employee Engagement Advisory Board' for 2021 to Guide HR Research and Virtual Event

HR.com, the largest network of human resources (HR) professionals, has announced the 'The Future of Employee Engagement Advisory Board' for 2021. The board will provide senior HR executives valuable insights that will help define the future and importance of employee engagement in today's organizations through annual research and education of HR professionals.

Working closely with HR.com's HR Research Institute (HRRI), the newly-appointed board of industry experts and thought leaders will counsel on the most impactful topics and key areas within employee engagement to positively and effectively guide primary research. The upcoming research study will provide a detailed snapshot of where organizations are with employee engagement today, and how they can prepare to thrive over the next few years.

The research insights and findings will be published in a major HR Research Institute report and will be further distilled into a two-page infographic. The results will also be featured at the complimentary virtual event, The Future of Employee Engagement 2021, taking place November 3-4, 2021. Free for interested HR professionals, this two-day event will include webcast sessions with experts who will examine trends and strategies associated with the critical issues around employee engagement.

The advisory board's guidance will be invaluable in ensuring both the research and the virtual event are best-in-class for HR professionals in attendance.

The state of the industry research will look at all relevant factors that have affected engagement trends to provide a snapshot, including:

• Examination of everything from how organizations define and measure engagement to what HR and managerial practices have a positive or negative impact on it.
• Detailed information from the practitioners who have the responsibility of actually moving the engagement needle.
• Potential connections between organizational performance and engagement, with the goal of discovering how they interrelate.
