WellBeing At Work, the workplace platform established by WellBeing World, and BPP Professional Education, Jersey’s largest on-island tutor team, are continuing their partnership to host a one day Employee Engagement seminar, ‘VOICE: Getting Heard’.
Latest CIPD research shows a deterioration in Employee Voice, and Employee Engagement levels at a record low. Pointing to a worrying decline in the satisfaction of employees in respect of their ability to feed views upwards, the research also highlights a particular deterioration in the extent to which employees feel leaders consult them about important decisions.
Employee Voice also the KEY to Innovation – and Corporate Governance
Employee voice is key employee engagement – and also to to innovation and strategic planning, providing market insight from frontline customer interface. Equally importantly, healthy employee voice can also help support effective corporate governance and risk management by allowing everyone in the organisation to voice their concerns about potential risks to the business, at an early stage.
VOICE: Getting Heard is the second seminar being run jointly by BPP and WellBeing At Work. The one day seminar has been created for business owners, managers and employees, and will be led by newly appointed BPP MD, Natalie Dimond, and Ian Lucas, BPP Professional Development Programme Leader; it will be chaired by Beverley Le Cuirot, Founder and Director, WellBeing World.
Participating practitioners offering practical solutions to immediately apply back in the workplace will include Lincoln Miles of Miles Professional Development; Peter Mac: Cognitive Hypnotherapist; Grant Henderson of Active Ergonomics; and David Witherington, Director of JACS.
This is the first time an Employee Engagement course has been delivered in this way in the Channel Islands.
Natalie Dimond, MD at BPP Jersey said: “Everyone in business, at all levels, will benefit from finding their innate inner confidence, giving them the ability to speak out and to be heard, effectively and persuasively; and to enable their colleagues to do the same. We are delighted to be working with WellBeing At Work once again to bring their unique, new dimension to this essential business skills training course.”
Beverley Le Cuirot, Founder of WellBeing At Work added: “Research shows that being heard is a key driver of employee engagement, and that feeling listened to is the most important factor in determining how much employees value their organisation.
Mrs Le Cuirot added: “Not only that, employee voice is the key to business success especially when innovation and effective corporate governance is at stake. It is in everyone’s best interests to use everything in their power to find the edge in business; employees hold the key to this.”
