THE BIGGER PICTURE

29/07/2013 ENGAGE FOR SUCCESS 2

The 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

THE EVIDENCE

>ENGAGEMENT LEADS TO PERFORMANCE

>Profit

> Income Growth

>Productivity

>Customer/Citizen Satisfaction

> Innovation

>Retention

>Wellbeing and Absence

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

8

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

9

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

ENGAGE FOR SUCCESS OUR STRATEGIC NARRATIVE

One third of UK employees are fully engaged

Organisational outcomes

For the UK Economy

So the Prime Minister launched a Task Force

To Raise the profile of the topic

To shine a light on good practises

WHO WE ARE

It is a voluntary movement:

Our currency is belief and energy

It encompasses private, public and voluntary force members, experts in the field and practitioners

Our belief:

People are the difference that makes the difference

People can be diminished or enabled to willingly offer their full capabilities and potential

We will not:

Develop models or paint by numbers solutions

Try to align definitions
