Engagement Trends from the Global Development Workforce

What INGO Surveys Reveal About Leadership, DEI and Culture

3-Feb-17-2026-11-21-45-4376-AM

International NGOs are decentralising, rethinking power structures, and redefining leadership. But what do employees really think?

This research analyses engagement data from 24 global INGOs, uncovering the strongest drivers of engagement — and the areas where organisations still have work to do.

This research reveals:

  • The leadership behaviours most strongly linked to engagement
  • Why confidence in leadership varies widely between organisations
  • How DEI commitment influences workforce trust
  • The cultural factors that differentiate high-performing INGOs
  • Why learning from mistakes remains a sector-wide challenge

If you want to build a globally inclusive, high-performing workforce, the answers start here.
