Abstract: The level of enthusiasm an employee feels towards the job is called as Employee Engagement. An engaged employee cares about his performance and its effect on the organization. It is an internal state of mind that binds together work force, commitment and satisfaction in an employee. The organization has to look after its employees so that they can satisfy their customers. The management has to find out what the employees want so that the ultimate goal of organization is achieved. Strategies like Transparency, Empowerment, Purpose, Behaviour and Listening can be used to engage the employees. This study mainly focuses on the engagement strategies applied in selected software companies in Chennai and also aims to explore the strategies that drive employee engagement in software companies. This empirical paper also seeks to find the effect of the identified strategies on employee engagement.
