Case Study: Pro-Dex achieves employee engagement and turnaround success with Energage

Turnaround at Pro-Dex Fueled by Communication and Collaboration

Pro-Dex, a California-based manufacturer of specialized medical, dental, and industrial devices, needed to improve employee engagement and internal communication during a difficult turnaround after several years of financial losses. The company worked with Energage to benchmark and measure workplace sentiment, helping leadership understand how well communication was landing with employees and where trust and alignment could improve.

With Energage’s workplace survey and recognition framework, Pro-Dex’s leadership focused on a “share, listen, and implement” culture built around frequent in-person communication, monthly updates, and visible management. The result was a stronger sense of involvement and loyalty that helped support the company’s turnaround and Top Workplaces recognition, with Pro-Dex scoring +39% above its manufacturing-medical-devices benchmark on “I feel well-informed about decisions at this company” and +24% above benchmark on “Senior managers understand what is really happening at this company.”
