Do not make assumptions about a disengaged employee's performance. While statistically, such employees do underperform, there can be other reasons too.

Managers influence the engagement of employees and can act either as a coach or boss. Help employees own their engagement. When an employee’s basic needs are met, they are more engaged.
Asking engagement oriented questions allows the employee to be able to think for themselves and to examine situations, analyze their own performance and generate great ideas or solutions.

For example: "This report has been on your desk for a while now. Are you having trouble getting the information you need to complete it? Do you need help?"
