It's a somewhat new concept that sort of combined happiness and work effort. Active engagement goes above and beyond, engaged employees are generally positive, disengaged employees are slightly negative, and actively disengaged employees are like cancer.

It's a nebulous concept that boils down to good employees are good, but gets management consultants paid.

Thank you for explaining.
