In challenging the notion that employee engagement is a single, all-encompassing, one-size-fits-all measure of employee positivity, proactivity, anticipated longevity and other associated virtues, the Six Forms of Engagement offer the opportunity to tap into the different ways people engage with their organizations and work to get better outcomes.

I really enjoyed reading this article; especially the classifications of employees that we would typically dub as disengaged. My takeaway is that you really need a balance of all types of engagement levels and that employees will find themselves at a different end of the engagement spectrum at different times; similarly with the change management curve.
