COVID19 and quarantine culture have fundamentally changed how we work individually and how we collaborate with our teams. We were not prepared for it, but it happened. And this point, we have even stopped complaining about remote work and embraced working from home by establishing new norms.<\/p>\n

The phrase \u2018work hard party harder\u2019 too has got a new definition as our lives are now being reflected through screens. With social distancing being the new normal, virtual house parties and work from home are some of the practices we are getting used to. Not only this but also people have found solace in connecting via applications. Whether it is content creation applications such as TikTok and Instagram, or video conferencing ones such as Zoom and Microsoft Teams, interacting is now a few taps away, rather than a few steps.<\/p>\n

Employee Engagement too becomes a challenge in this new COVID19 world. HR departments and organizations as a whole need to understand how they can plug in the best of employee engagement activities by adhering to the new world order as we battle out the coronavirus.<\/p>\n

In this pandemic-ridden world, communication has found newer and better ways. As the young explore unique techniques, older consumers are also discovering some of those modern ways of communication that they had simply ignored or actively shunned so far. There is a visible change in the way we interact, with communication moving away from desktops and laptops to mobile phones.<\/p>\n

However, in this era of COVID19, they have also become a useful tool in turning around business communication. Mobile phones have opened multiple avenues of creation and communication, thus leaving room for innovation in employee engagement techniques as well.<\/p>\n

From social media usage to mobile websites and even app versions, all our communication is going mobile. It\u2019s high time we tapped on its energy too apart from its screens, and channelize it in employee engagement.<\/p>\n

What is Employee Engagement?<\/h2>\n

To delve further into a mobile-centric world of COVID19 and how it can be used to create unique employee engagement, we need to understand what exactly employee engagement is<\/a>. To understand employee engagement, we have to first clarify who is an engaged employee.<\/p>\n

Here goes:<\/p>\n

An engaged employee is one who is totally absorbed in work and is well-versed with the organization\u2019s vision, mission, and policies, to the tune of imbibing its ethics. He or she is highly motivated and is enthusiastic about work as a whole.<\/p>\n
