(From Business Wire) -- Lumesse, a global leader in integrated talent management solutions, today announced that it is making available as a free download the final detailed report on its global survey Inspiring Talent 2011 at www.lumesse.com/talentsurvey2011.The survey reveals that despite employee happiness at work, 29% of workers expect to leave their companies within five years. Four out of five employees also felt that their skills were not fully utilized, while almost half reported that their performance appraisal process was of little or no value. Based on a survey of almost 4,000 employees in larger companies in 14 countries, including the US, UK, Germany and China, the report examines employee attitudes to their jobs and employers in areas such as loyalty, job satisfaction, workplace pride, training opportunities and salary perceptions.Lumesse CEO Matthew Parker noted: "Some consistent messages come out of this free report regardless of age, gender and geographical location. It's clear that many people feel their skills are not used as well as they could be, and that many employers are not using effective performance appraisal techniques to help people contribute more. For many people the solution is going to be a move to a new job. That's a pity because overall the survey shows good levels of workplace pride and satisfaction. If employers can combine that happiness with better career management then the benefits are obvious - better retention, better performance and higher productivity."Read more.
