Engagement Theory
In simple terms, engagement is often defined as the level of ‘discretionary effort’ your employees are willing to give to help you achieve your organisational goals - their readiness to drip blood, sweat and tears on your behalf. Although these sentiments are highly relevant, there is more to engagement than just discretionary effort. Through in-depth academic and scientific research, Gravitas Analytics has developed a market-leading construct of engagement - GATE® Gravitas Analytics Total Engagement which clearly maps the theoretical basis of psychological engagement, corporate loyalty and strategic alignment.
All elements of Total Engagement are strategically focused on serving your organisational objectives and are characterised by:
- A willingness to exert considerable effort on behalf of your organisation.
- A strong belief in, acceptance of and alignment to your organisation’s goals.
- A pride and identity that fosters a desire to stay within your organisation.
Total Engagement not only identifies the emotional and physical commitment of individuals but also their levels of cognitive awareness, which is critical in ensuring that the discretionary effort being pledged is correctly aligned to benefit both your organisation and your employees.
Well-being Theory
Well-being can be described as how people feel and how they function; on a personal, social and working level, and how they evaluate their lives as a whole. Most people spend the majority of their waking life at their place of work so the impact an organisation can have on an individual’s well-being should never be underestimated. The number of mental health issues now being experienced due to work has increased dramatically and a sense of urgency to address the issue is transcending at senior level.
Through detailed research Gravitas Analytics has identified a premier construct of well-being that accurately maps well-being and its key elements, the model captures:
- The factors that influence well-being, focussing on key workplace influencers, eg. workload, stability, conditions, management etc.
- The level of positive functioning at work, such as; competence, sense of control and relationships, to name a few.
- The positive feelings experienced at work, such as; contentment, stimulation, purpose etc.
When people function well and experience positive feelings at work we see them as ‘flourishing’ with positive well-being. The Gravitas measurement of well-being is based on this robust and scientifically sanctioned theory.

The Measurement
To complement the mapping of engagement and well-being, Gravitas Analytics has developed psychometrically balanced survey questionnaires that accurately measure opinion across key areas. Completed either online or on paper, they use a 7-point Likert scale to sensitively capture a wide range of responses. Survey questions are carefully engineered to avoid typical survey pitfalls such as bias, ambiguity and priming.
All too often in the marketplace employee satisfaction surveys are packaged and labelled as engagement or well-being surveys without any consideration to the structure of the survey. Gravitas Analytics has a much more focussed approach so you can rest assured that questionnaires, whether full assessments or pulse surveys, actually target and comprehensively map what they claim to measure. This is known as ‘construct validity’ and is critical to the viability of any research.
Factors
Full survey assessments accurately measure key sub-constructs, known as factors, that drive engagement, loyalty, alignment and well-being. The questions in each factor provide coverage of the sub-construct being measured, and most importantly the questions are precise, fully actionable and of practical importance.

The Analysis
Gravitas Analytics provides a level of analysis that goes well beyond the norm, thus offering a high-end tool for any engagement initiative. The true pulse of your organisation is identified through in-depth enquiry across all levels, highlighting the strength of opinion on different aspects of your operation.
Descriptive statistics are used to summarise data in a meaningful way and to show you emerging patterns that make it easy to interpret the research findings. These descriptives are a fundamental part of your statistical toolkit, but they are just the first step. Inferential modelling will help you to reach conclusions that extend beyond the immediate data to fuel corporate decision-making. By far the most critical output of any employee engagement survey is the identification of the key drivers that are influencing engagement and loyalty, and these can only be accurately derived from advanced inferential techniques.
Taking the analysis to even greater depths, Gravitas Analytics delivers insights into areas of particular interest and importance, such as; management team engagement levels, engagement by demographic, levels of fulfilment and how the workplace is affecting well-being, the leadership ability of your line managers and your ROI (return on investment) for human capital. After a comprehensive analysis of the results, Gravitas Analytics will prioritise your actions based on the survey results and their statistical significance.
