“Employees whose organizations provide a clear plan for integrating AI have a 15-point higher engagement rate than those without one,” the report said. Employee engagement increased to 53% when “frequent AI use, a clear plan for integration and active manager support” all came together, per Gallup. The single biggest factor determining employee engagement is manager support, per the report. The report found that workers who frequently use AI with the help of manager support show engagement rates that are 14 points higher than the national average. The report concluded that HR professionals need to rely on managers in order to improve the adoption of AI tools.
