A CIPR Advisory Group on Employee Communications and Engagement has been established, recognising the need for challenging assumptions and unprecedented levels of professional collaboration on employee engagement across industry.

An independent group of experts, their focus is to help shine a light on the best examples of employee engagement for those leaders and practitioners who believe "there must be more to engagement than this", and who are ready to move to the next level.

Their five aims:

  1. Working with organisations to advocate the importance of the role of leadership in engaging the enterprise, we are committed to working in partnership with other chartered institutes such as the CIPD, and the CIM to develop leadership capability in employee engagement and communications.
  2. Sharing experience by focussing on lessons learned from what goes right as well as wrong. Committed to conduct industry research, and showcase good practice, especially amongst those who may be too modest to promote themselves.
  3. Providing thought leadership and a forum for debate, presenting diverse views and contributions from practitioners and opinion formers that have no commitment to a party line but a shared passion for helping organisations bring their strategy to life through their people.
  4. Inspiring CIPR members, setting professional standards and encouraging Continuing Professional Development and the confidence to take a proactive role in building strong and innovative companies.
  5. Influencing the influencers, creating a dialogue with key business executives and academics to develop a widely shared understanding of how true engagement can drive mutual benefit for employees and the employer.
