The Sivia Case
“As evidenced by the review process already in place under the ADP regime, it is possible to allow for a more meaningful review to be put in place without in any material way affecting the government’s objective of removing impaired drivers promptly and effectively from the road.”
Justice Sigurdson – November 30, 2011
Organizational Culture
Culture is the sum of all the individual
mindsets rolled into one set of common
agreements.
Employee Engagement
Employee engagement involves the interplay of three factors:
cognitive commitment,
emotional attachment and
behavioral outcomes that result from an employee’s connection with their company
Employee Engagement
Employee engagement is a heightened emotional and intellectual connection that an employee has for his/her job, organization, manager, or co-workers that, in turn, influences him/her to apply additional discretionary effort to his/her work.

WORK EXPERIENCE
Manager vs. Leader
The manager does things right; the leader does the right thing
The manager administers: the leader innovates.
The manager is a copy; the leader is an original.
The manager maintains; the leader develops.
The manager focuses on systems and structure; the leader focuses on people.
The manager relies on control; the leader inspires trust.
The manager has a short-range view; the leader has a long-range perspective.
The manager asks how and when; the leader ask what and why.
The manager has his or her eye always on the bottom line; the leader’s eye is on the horizon.
The manager imitates; the leader originates.
The manager accepts the status quo; the leader challenges it.
The manager is the classic good soldier; the leader is his or her own person.
Lead the Way…
Model the way
Inspire a shared vision
Challenge the process
Enable others to act
Encourage the heart
Be Persistent… Expect Good Results
Persevere through conflict; however, be mindful to discontinue failing strategies.
Make wise and courageous strategic adjustments when necessary
- expect the best outcome.
