Audrey Widjaja,�Partner and Practice Leader,�Talent, Rewards & Performance, Aon Greater China�said:�"As
Chinese companies grapple with a multi-generational workforce and increasing
competition for talent from start-ups, they must transform their people practices.
Best Employers invest in continuous dialogue by combining data, analytics and
digital technology to create feedback loops that drive self-sustaining
improvement enabling staff to maximise their potential."

Peter Zhang, Chief Executive Officer, Aon Consulting, Greater China, said: "A 5%
increase in employee engagement is linked to a 3% increase in revenue growth in
the subsequent year, according to Aon's research.
When
organisations have high engagement levels, employees say positive things about
working there, strive harder in their jobs, and stay for the long term driving
business performance. As Chinese companies aim to capture global markets, they
must have agile HR practices that enable them to work different to enhance both
customer and employee experience.
