Sustaining employee engagement - How to ensure your employees are healthy, happy, and productive
Overview
Most people have problems making change efforts last. The typical kaizen is usually very successful -- but that success is often very short lived. Why does this have to be? Well, it does not.
We will present a series of three workshops to explain how you can improve the “stickiness” of your projects by improving your workforce engagement. This webinar will be a 1-hour introduction to show precisely how you can measure your engagement levels and achieve sustainability of improvement efforts. We will go through how you can measure your current levels of engagement, focus on the areas needing attention and make the necessary improvements.
We will show you how to use the System Dynamics model and other techniques to satisfy the intrinsic needs of the entire workforce where people are not only productive, but at the end of the day, they can say they achieved joy in their work. This happens when the management team can create an environment where “people have the opportunity to perform well and are able to become the best version of themselves at work.” You get all this for your people but also you will find the costs, accidents and employee attrition measurably drop, while profits, productivity, delivery, and morale measurably improve.
This webinar is designed for 1-hour, and we have designed it with lots of time for Q&A. Join us for this introduction to our workshops and watch the smile-to-frown ratios in your facility … skyrocket.
