Engage For Success

CIPR Internal Communications Conference7th November 2012

10/04/2023 ENGAGE FOR SUCCESS 2

THE BIGGER PICTUREThe context for WHY Employee Engagement is critical:The 20th Century model was “Business as Usual”.MAKE EFFICIENT – aligned but not engaged, central direction, command and control.

TRANSACTIONAL OR TRANSFORMATIONAL?

Transactional engagement>A set of activities or targets

>Usually focussed around a survey

Transformational engagement>Employees integral to developing and delivering the business strategy

>Requires deep belief in the power of people to contribute

- new and creative products/services

- outstanding customer/client service and efficiency

>A belief that our people are the solution, not the problem

KEY ENABLER 1: STRATEGIC NARRATIVE

Strong, visible, empowering leadership provides a strong strategic narrative about the organisation, where it’s come from and where it’s going.

This gives a line of sight between the job and the organisation’s vision.The story is communicated clearly, consistently and constantly.

The past You are here The future

KEY ENABLER 2: ENGAGING MANAGERS

They:

focus their people, offer

scope and enable the job to get

done

treat their people as individuals

coach and stretch their people

6

KEY ENABLER 3: EMPLOYEE VOICE

There is employee voice throughout the organisation, for reinforcing and challenging views; between functions & externally; employees are really seen as your key asset – not the problem.

This voice is an informed one. Views are sought early and followed up; explanations are given if ideas/views not adopted.

Trade unions/staff representatives are part of the engagement architecture – collective voice matters

7

KEY ENABLER 4: INTEGRITY

There is organisational integrity – the values on the wall are reflected in day to day behaviours.

These expected behaviours are explicit and bought into by staff.

Keep it real – staff see through corporate spin quicker than customers or the public.

Integrity enables trust: no engagement without trust
