Empowerment is giving employees the power to do their job.
The concept of empowerment is closely linked to motivation and customer service. Employees need to feel that their actions count – and empowerment is about making this happen.
Empowerment is a catch-all term that covers:
- Giving authority to make decisions to front-line staff (e.g. hotel receptionist, call centre assistant)
- Encouraging employee feedback
- Showing more trust in employees
