We work together to identify approaches towards this end, put them into practice, and share those that are successful. In dealing with the barriers to gender equality, we need to be open to all the forces at play. It’s not all about policies and initiatives. Behaviour is also a big part of it. What are the norms and relationships that we would like to see in our organisations? Are some of the barriers to do with how we work together and interact every day? Most certainly they are. We would all like to think that we have an environment that is respectful and inclusive, that gender is never a limiting factor, and when issues arise people feel at ease to talk about them. The reality is there is an undercurrent of behaviour that perceives and treats women differently. It often masquerades as a joke. So common in some organisations, this behaviour has become an accepted part of navigating workplace dynamics. Everyday sexism affects everyone, but more frequently and to a greater extent, women. And gender is non binary. Gender expression and gender identity influence people’s experiences of everyday sexism. Men also experience problems with outdated male norms and stereotypes. With this in mind, we committed to understand more and take action to address the most prevalent forms of everyday sexism. Is everyday sexism just thoughtless banter? Is it real? Does it reflect views about the roles of women and men at home and at work? Does it matter? Some say it seems to be ‘all about women these days’. Unless we tackle everyday sexism, the best policies and initiatives aimed to achieve gender equality will not deliver the progress we require – there will be a limiting behavioural force holding people back. We are not raising

B.N., Associate Professor H.N. College of Commerce Solapur Introduction The concept of „employee engagement ‟ is rapidly gaining popularity and use in the workplace. It is a need of the organization but it having some confusion in the minds of business persons about its definition, how to implement and measured. Employee engagement (EE) can be defined as an employee putting forth extra discretionary effort, as well as the likelihood of the employee being loyal and remaining with the organization over the long period. Research shows that engaged employees: perform better, put in extra efforts to help get the job done, show a strong level of commitment to the organization, and are more motivated and optimistic about their work goals. Some organizations look towards EE as competitive advantage. Corporate results have proved that there is a strong link between conceptualization of EE, workers performance and business outcomes. This paper is based on conceptual research and reviews the current literature of EE, definitions, importance of EE, Importance of EE, and Elements of EE, Impact of EE, and Gallup 12 question model of EE, EE in India. Literature Review Employee Engagement: Definitions One of the most issues concerning the concept of employee engagement is that there is no clear definition. Practitioners, corporations, and academic researcher give various definitions. There is no consistency in definition, and engagement has been operationalised and measured in many diverse ways.

DESCRIPTORS *Guidelines; Interpersonal Communication; *Job Skills; Listening Habits; *Listening Skills; Work Environment IDENTIFIERS Listening Strategies ABSTRACT This article examines the listening process and factors affecting listening. It also suggests general guidelines for teaching and assessing listening and gives examples of activities for practicing and developing listening skills for the workplace. Listening is a demanding process that involves the listener, speaker, message content, and accompanying visual support. Listening is an active process of selecting and interpreting information from auditory and visual clues. Many events constitute listening (e.g., the listener determines a reason for listening, takes raw speech and deposits an image of it in short-term memory, recalls background information to interpret the message, assigns a meaning to the message, and checks that the message has been understood). Teaching workplace listening skills requires activating background knowledge and vocabulary. Pre-listening activities set the stage and review what the learner already knows. Post-listening activities help the learner assess success or failure in carrying out the listening task.
