“I’m going to a conference next month and the keynote speaker is Michael J. Fox.”. “Cool! Although, I just saw on Facebook that his health isn’t very good. I hope he’s able to make the event.”. Such was the conversation I had several weeks ago with a friend. I’d seen the post about Michael J. Fox on Facebook as well and hoped it wasn’t true. A bit of investigative work on my part revealed nothing reported (besides the “news” on Facebook) so I was hopeful it was just a rumor.

Some of these definitions include references or similarities to other common organizational behavior terms, to the point where “engagement” has become a catchphrase that includes all the positive feelings and qualities that we want in employees.
