EPISODE DESCRIPTION
Employee engagement is not a nice-to-have. It is the difference between a team that checks out and a team that stays, grows, and performs.Debbie Erie sits down with Tansy Baxter, founder of Tansybee, for a candid conversation about what actually drives engagement at work – and why so many companies get it wrong. From the danger of collecting survey feedback and then ignoring it, to the simple power of recognition, clear values, and better onboarding, this episode breaks down the practical shifts that can transform culture fast.You’ll discover:
- Why employee surveys can do more harm than good if leaders don’t act on the results
- How to close the gap between leadership perception and employee reality
- Why recognition works best when it is tied to company values and individual motivation
- How poor onboarding and unclear job expectations quietly fuel attrition
- Why communication fails when leaders send information but never create understanding
Tansy shares how she uses anonymous culture surveys, leadership conversations, and prioritised action plans to help companies identify the quickest wins with the biggest impact. She also explains why engagement is not just about morale – it affects productivity, customer satisfaction, mental health, retention, and ultimately profitability.Debbie and Tansy also dig into the overlooked human side of work: listening properly, respecting feedback, making space for honest conversations, and understanding that one-size-fits-all recognition rarely works. If you lead people, manage teams, or want to build a workplace where people feel valued instead of drained, this conversation will hit home.Tansy Baxter is the founder of Tansybee, specialising in employee engagement and workplace culture improvement. She helps organisations uncover what is really happening inside their teams and turn feedback into meaningful action.Essential listening if you want happier employees, stronger retention, and a company culture that actually works in the real world.
