POST-CONFERENCE WORKSHOP D
Using Assessment Tools To Understand Your Culture, Increase Employee Engagement And Create A More Effective Organization
"What makes this organization tick?" Professionals who ask that question are looking for insight into the cultural forces at play inside every organization—the intangible framework that determines what truly matters and engages its people, what brings them together, how things really get done, and where group attention and energy is focused.
During this interactive workshop, you will learn a step-by-step process for engaging employees in organizational culture assessment.
Specifically, you will learn how to:
- Define the strengths and values that are key to organizational success
- Recognize the shared "storylines" that exist across any organization
- Use those insights to more successfully communicate with and motivate employees
You will also be introduced to the Organizational & Team Culture Indicator (OTCI), a powerful new assessment/typological tool that uses the framework of stories we all know to measure and understand:
- Core group identity, purpose, meaning and motivation
- Communications style
- Approach to critical operating tasks
- Opportunities and challenges
They'll also be introduced to the Internal Brand Messaging Ladder, an easy-to-use communications model that helps organizations develop and customize messages that engage employees within the context of their own unique cultures.
Through real-world examples using both of these tools, participants will learn practical strategies for applying culture assessment to a wide variety of organizational initiatives, including:
- Branding and organizational identity
- Internal communications
- Values/vision/mission development
- Strategic planning
- Organizational and leadership development
- Mergers and acquisitions
- Change management
Ultimately, participants will learn how culture and character can be leveraged to create more successful, mission-focused and effective organizations.
