Action-learning session to develop a plan to engage your people in recovery
Not surprisingly we have been doing a lot of consulting work helping organizations to engage their people to aid recovery. We want to capitalize on this and make the learning more available through some short learning sessions which can also be applied to specific companies to act as a planning process to create specific plans to engage for recovery.
The intention of these action-learning sessions is to provide participants with a practical framework to help design a process to engage leaders and employees in preparing for recovery and growth. They are designed to be fast, informative and specifically useful to those trying to reframe the institution towards recovery.
We cover eight key topics:
- Engage for changes’s well-researched definition of what really causes people at work to engage themselves.
- Engaging the leadership team around a shared recovery vision and strategy which energizes them and demonstrates that they are engaged as a team.
- Helping the leadership/change team to minimize top-down decisions and devise the invitation to others to participate in strategy development and especially in strategy/operational execution.
- Enabling the leadership team to distinguish between a communication cascade of pre-decided messages and a real engagement process and as guides rather than gods with all the answers.
- Designing well-governed engagement interventions which provide an authentic opportunity for chosen groups or everyone to contribute and to be accountable for their contributions.
- Integrating the engagement process with the business cycle so that it is and is seen to be integral to improving execution rather than a separate soft process.
- Showing how a complementary communication process can give meaning and context to the engagement process and stimulate sustained action.
- Building a coalition to help you move the engage-to-recover programme forward.
