“Companies with engaged employees
- utperform those without engaged
employees by up to 202%.” GLASSDOOR 2015 “Employers in Europe and North America will require 16 million to 18 million more college-educated workers in 2020 than are going to be available. Companies may not be able to fill one in ten roles they need, much less fill them with top talent.” MCKINSEY GLOBAL INSTITUTE November 2017
