Who Is Dr. Kim Dunlap? The Story Behind Her Employee Engagement Mission

Discover who Dr. Kim Dunlap is and how her employee engagement journey reveals the real secrets behind inspiring and retaining motivated teams.
Who is Dr. Kimberly Dunlap—also known as The Engagement Doctor—and what ignited her passion for employee engagement? In this powerful story, Dr. Dunlap reveals how her early career experiences shaped her mission to understand workplace culture, employee motivation, and the deeper reasons behind job satisfaction.

After starting in an insurance company with a strong, supportive organizational culture, she experienced firsthand how an engaged workforce is built. But when she later entered a Fortune 500 company with a toxic work environment, she quickly learned why employees disengage, why employees quit, and why employee retention becomes a challenge when leadership loses sight of people.

This contrast inspired her seven-year research journey into diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI), DEI in the workplace, leadership and culture, HRM, and the core factors that reveal what makes employees engaged beyond a paycheck. Dr. Dunlap breaks down employee engagement strategies, practical employee engagement ideas, and even simple employee engagement activities that leaders can use to prevent burnout and understand why employees leave or why they quit their jobs.
