KEEP IT SIMPLE….

‘A workplace approach designed to ensure that employees are committed to their organisation’s goals and values, motivated to contribute to organisational success and able at the same time to enhance their own sense of wellbeing.’

Professor David Guest

‘It’s the people, stupid!’

with apologies to James Carville

THE BIGGER PICTURE

03/05/2013 Engage for success 13

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.

THE CASE FOR ENGAGEMENT

03/05/2013 PRESENTATION TITLE IN FOOTER 16

BARRIERS

‘Spare me another **** HR/comms initiative’

‘Don’t you know there’s a recession on?’

‘I’ve not got time for the soft and fluffy stuff’

Spreading good practice

Leaders modelling behaviour

Command and control

Micro-managing

People skills for the line

Takes time, application, consistency and effort

Transactional – ie survey – rather than transformational – ie culture change

17

DISENGAGEMENT IS NOT INEVITABLE

Research shows that how an organisation deals with redundancy has greater effect on employee engagement than job losses themselves (Roffey Park 2011)

Engagement has stayed high in high performing companies through the recession. Among results of engagement:

improved product quality

more technical innovation

Better internal co-operation

managers encourage people to learn from their mistakes

goals clearly defined

career opportunities and performance management strengthened

(Towers Watson July 2010)

19

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

20

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

21

KEY ENABLER 3: 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

22

KEY ENABLER 4: 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.

23

A government sponsored, employer led Task Force (TF), to spearhead a movement

to enhance levels of employee engagement across the U.K. workforce.

Launched at No 10 Downing Street by the Prime Minister and BIS’s Ed Davey in

March 2011.

ENGAGE FOR SUCCESS - THE NEXT STAGE

Supported by a high level sponsor group and by Guru and practitioner groups. TF already looking in more depth at barriers and practical challenges to engagement. Practitioners’ national network and major website

Employee voice matters – let’s get

loud!

Dr Martin Reddington

Engage for Success Essex 26 April 2013

“…An insight-driven function…In this way HR uses much of the

work from its core activities to further inform the organisation

about challenges, course correction and big opportunities.”

“….A Business Savvy function.. We wanted to get into a

conversation with practitioners about what they think business

savvy is…”

Four ‘foundations’ that help build business savvy in HR

professionals and their teams…..

(CIPD, 2011)

High Performance HR

Comfortable with social media and its uses in organisations

Understanding people performance recipes and employee

engagement

Using ‘big data’ to optimise organisational effectiveness

More individualisation of the relationship with top management
