When trust is key, employee engagement is a must.
The financial services industry is one built on trust and relationships. A highly engaged team who care deeply about the work they are doing alongside a robust and effective performance management process are therefore of the utmost importance.
Get a handle of both with our simple employee check-in.

We help a number of financial service clients with their engagement & performance challenges:

Why is employee engagement and retention important for the finance sector?
In a highly volatile industry with a continuing trend towards digitisation, where a thriving business is built upon great relationships and reputation, keeping staff engaged and in position is key to delivering a continued premium service that people can trust.

Employee benefits aren't always that effective
Historically, more so than many other industries, the finance sector has looked to encourage great work and engagement through the use of lucrative bonus programmes and other benefits.
These play a role of course, but plenty of research (both from academia, including Harvard Business School and businesses such as PwC) has shown they can often have a detrimental effect on employee engagement and workplace culture.
Weekly10 offers another solution.
Reducing employee churn needs to be a top priority
In 2019 the UK financial services sector faced a staff attrition rate of 13.8%, one of the highest of any professional service industry. With the average estimated cost of replacing an employee sitting just north of £30,000, this is likely a key concern for you and your business.
Improve productivity through building a change & disruption resilient culture
Volatility is a part of the business. When times are good they are great, when they are bad they can sometimes be really bad. Focussing on crafting a culture when people are intrinsically motivated to 'turn up' and be at their best is a vital strategy for top performance all year round.

Employee engagement for the financial services sector from Weekly10
The Weekly10 platform allows progressive finance firms to measure, adjust, improve and monitor the engagement of their people through a simple, light-touch weekly check-in.

Honest, open and owned feedback on a regular cadence
One of the key pillars of great employee engagement is open, two-way feedback between managers and their teams. By default our employee check-in is not anonymous (you have flexibility to turn anonymity per question), all answers are shared directly with managers and our comments feature allows for a conversation on any key points.
With studies finding staff want more workplace feedback than they are getting - millennial workers expect feedback to happen weekly, Gen Z even more frequently - and the power of timely feedback in impacting behaviour and performance, we believe a weekly check-in is the correct approach for most finance companies.
However, with Weekly10 you have the flexibility to set a cadence that is right for your firm's needs. Our team of HR professionals, technologists and psychologists will help you setup a feedback cycle that is perfect for improving engagement within your teams.
