Identify the failure points in employee engagement and satisfaction most likely to cause loss, and control them first.
Designing Employee Engagement Programmes and Measuring Satisfaction
Build a working method for employee engagement and satisfaction that stands up to scrutiny and survives daily pressure.
Course Overview
A process for employee engagement and satisfaction that managers quietly work around has already failed. People decide what engagement and satisfaction really means by watching who gets promoted. Organisations that document this area of people management and development properly resolve disputes about it far more quickly. Content is organised around the decisions practitioners actually face in employee engagement and satisfaction, not around theory headings. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of the people management and development discipline rather than to abstract argument. Improvement in engagement and satisfaction stalls when it depends on one capable individual rather than a defined method. Participants who influence employee engagement and satisfaction without directly controlling it will find the content directly usable. Participants gain a clear basis for measuring what engagement and satisfaction has actually achieved. The programme closes with an action plan for this area of people management and development that each participant writes for their own organisation.
