Culture & Employee Engagement
Your organization’s ultimate goal is to be successful, and your people are key to its success. An employee’s journey at your organization should be a fulfilling and rewarding experience from the time the offer is made until the employee’s very last day. A positive employee experience translates to productive, engaged employees, and boosts your employer brand.
The new generations in our workforce are demonstrating the need for flexibility, creativity, and individualism in the workforce. Attitudes about culture, talent, and demographics have shifted to become more inclusive, diverse, and technologically advanced.
It’s important for any organization to periodically review and assess its organizational effectiveness, including employee engagement and overall culture.
Culture
Your organization’s culture reflects the beliefs, values, attitudes, expectations, and practices that guide, influence, and inform the actions of your leadership and employees.
The slow shift in the workforce’s generational makeup plays into the talent retention and engagement at an organization and affects its culture. Each generation brings different strengths, mindsets, skills, and experiences to the playing field and will create a formula for organizational and employee success.
As generations change, your organization’s culture must reflect change. Increasing connectivity among the staff, diversifying the workplace, and granting more independence are just a few of the ways in which progressive companies can win over and develop these new generations. Creating energizing initiatives for employee engagement will enhance your success as a business.
By conducting a cultural assessment of your workplace, we can determine what both leadership and employees see as your organization’s culture now and what they want it to be for the future. Giving employees a voice and letting them know they have been heard is key to this process.
Based on the results of the assessment, we can help you take the steps needed to create an employer brand that fits your organization’s culture and the HR policies needed to align to that culture, including:
- Create communication plans and strategies.
- Align talent acquisition and recruitment with your culture.
- Create programs, policies, and initiatives that align with culture.
- Tie community involvement with employee retention.
- Align strategic plan with mission, values, and culture.
People Development
Your people are your greatest asset. Employees who receive ongoing feedback and undergo meaningful and consistent training and development are more likely to advance and succeed within your organization, and, in turn, contribute to your organization’s success.
We help you develop a strategic approach to identify and define your employees’ journeys and expand their skills and knowledge so they can grow with your organization. We take steps to identify the key roles and responsibilities, as well as the critical skills, knowledge, and abilities your employees need to be engaged and successful.
To support your employees in their growth, we will help you:
- Create career paths and frameworks to provide your employees with roadmaps to success.
- Assess and develop management and leadership competencies to help employees see themselves as the future of the organization.
- Develop and deliver employee, management, or leadership training and workshops.
- Provide management, leadership, mentoring and peer coaching.
Together, we develop a communication strategy to ensure leadership and employees’ expectations are aligned for the future success of all employees. Employees will see that the organization is committed to their growth and success as individuals, and they will be more engaged and productive. This in turn will lead to the growth and success of the organization as a whole.
