London – February 10, 2016 – The world of employee engagement welcomes a new champion today with the launch of the Employee Engagement Alliance (EEA). The EEA is a new membership organisation that is designed to represent the interests of employee engagement professionals and encourage the development of world-class employee engagement programmes.

The EEA has eight core goals:
- To provide a voice for employee engagement professionals

- To gather proof of the business and human value of employee engagement
- To crystallise best practice based on member contributions
- To share knowledge between our members

- To provide members the opportunity to benchmark the impact of their employee engagement programme against businesses of the same size and in the same sector.
