Data from a recent annual report by Lattice, a people success platform, found that 86% of HR teams say they will focus on implementing more employee engagement programs in 2023 than ever before.

What’s more, 41% of respondents said that employee engagement surpassed “manager training” and “learning and development.”

A section of the report reads: “This year, talent acquisition isn’t just less important to HR teams; it’s near the bottom of their priority list. Absent the ability to hire talent from the outside, HR teams are investing in the people they already have.”

The survey results also revealed that the recent wave of current and upcoming pay transparency laws has captured the attention of HR leaders as a trend to watch.
