HR Cruises

Sail on the high seas with your HR Colleaguesl

Jill Kopanis, SPHR

"Setting Sail towards a Culture of Employee Engagement"

 

 

 

Learning Objectives:

    1. Go beyond the statistics and data to understand the differences of a Satisfied Culture and an Engaged Culture;
    2. Define leadership opportunities to create a culture of engagement and how to position a culture of engagement that is sustainable; and,
    3. Learn to identify corporate 'Balloon Poppers" and 'Color Outside the Line' opportunities in your company.

 

Session Description:

 

"Because we have always done it this way". The 8 deadliest words that can sink a corporate culture. Employees are encouraged to be innovative by 'coloring outside the line'. Then leadership pops their employee's 'innovation balloon' with a century old list of guidelines. It is time to throw out a life preserver and create an engaged culture. But do you understand how to build that culture? It is not a survey and it is not a program. This interactive and engaging session will reveal how to make it happen. A few balloons will be popped during this session as we discuss real 'disengaged' corporate cultures and identify ways to build and sustain a true culture of engagement. Don't let your engagement efforts get stuck on a deserted island full of employee surveys. This session will open your eyes to a new vision of engagement and help you to set sail on a course towards building a culture of engagement that works.
