Activities Overview

There are a number of activities within the program including the 'Satisfaction @ Work Diagnostic' and 'Program Review' components.  The others are directly related to the seven Satisfaction @ Work indicators and are utilized in both an individual and collaborative team manner.

The program uses these seven indicators to measure staff satisfaction levels and by implication the impact of leadership within the organization.

Employees who are well led:

• Feel Valued - they are made to feel special and hence they act special.
• Are Open - they are receptive to new ideas and engage in genuine two-way communication.
• Engage in Feedback - they recognize the importance of regular constructive feedback to improving performance.
• Are Motivated - they have positive feelings about the job and have an intrinsic drive to achieve.
• Manage Differences - they ensure that differences are not allowed to get in the way but are celebrated and seen as a source of strength.
• Take Ownership - they take ownership for getting their needs met rather than complain.
• Are Conflict Free - they engage in proactive feedback and hence dysfunctional conflict is minimized and time is not wasted.

In conjunction with the job satisfaction surveys, these activites provide practical, interactive activities and excercises that promote active employee participation which should result in the organization becoming An Even Better Place to Work.
