| Program Description |
The
success of today’s organization depends on unleashing and maximizing the talents of
its workforce. This program explores the conditions of commitment in bureaucracies and the
factors and practices that can enhance the value of each employee’s contribution.
Using a video case study, participants follow and assess a manager in a government agency
as he faces the leadership challenges of building commitment in his work unit.
Participants then identify practices that promote employee commitment and analyze factors
that influence an employee’s willingness and ability to take initiative. When coupled
with Creating the Results You Desire, these programs greatly enhance culture
change. |
