“The idea that engagement drives performance is backward logic that doesn’t make a bit of sense.” I think a more accurate assessment is, trying to increase on a broad scale levels for the the typical employee with measurable bottom line impact is questionable. Employee engagement is huge if it’s authentic and high powered. Take the top 5% at any company. Likely no software product made them that way, it’s just who they are.

I don’t think McKinsey will give you strategy advice and then take a cut, unless it was a pretty binary scenario.
