Papers by Clair Doloriert
Purpose – Employee engagement (EE) is a highly popular topic within workplace research, but has
been studied almost exclusively from a quantitative, survey based approach, both in academic and
consultancy led research. Yet, employee engagement is essentially an individual concept, concerning
self, and this highly personal dimension fails to be captured in positivistic surveys. This paper offers a
novel methodology in an attempt to address this deficit.
Design/methodology/approach – This complex concept needs to be studied from a more
interpretivist and ethnographic angle, acknowledging that EE exists within a cultural context. The
paper proposes the use of a contemporary, and somewhat contentious, form of ethnography,
autoethnography (AE) that weaves together the researcher’s personal and participants’ experiences to
illuminate the phenomenon.
Findings – This paper briefly reviews extant literature on employee engagement, explains
autoethnography and argues that AE is a highly suitable method to capture both the individual and
social nature of self in employee engagement.
Research limitations/implications – To understand how employee engagement works, we need
to get at the depth of the concept, and the paper offers an innovative methodological contribution to
achieve this. To date, this approach has received limited attention and only minimal anecdotal
evidence is presented to support the argument for AE. However, there is substantial scope for further
research adopting this novel, collaborative approach.
Practical implications – An autoethnographic approach provides both emic (insider) and etic
(outsider) perspectives on the phenomenon, thus harnessing both the experiences of those involved in
AE initiatives (e.g. HR practitioners managing EE and employees being engaged) but also the
researcher’s experiences and interpretations of being engaged in their work, to elicit more rich, layered
insights. Such nuanced understanding can help facilitate more appropriate, authentic and realistic
interventions to harness employees’ whole self and engagement.
Originality/value – Autoethnography provides an innovative approach to studying employee
engagement, offering an appropriate alternative to quantitative, snap-shot studies and is more in
keeping with the founding scholar’s intentions for research on this topic.
