Employee Engagement

For organizations to be successful in recruiting and retaining staff and motivating them to produce excellent business results, moving beyond typical employee relations strategies is essential. Only when employees "choose" to use their discretionary efforts for the benefit of the employer will organizations reap the rewards.

Cross Wise offers four key services that support employee engagement efforts:

• Employee surveys (done in partnership with ResearchWorks Inc), focus groups and facilitated action planning helps employers develop a comprehensive understanding of employee satisfaction, interests and needs.

• Research and training to support organizational leaders in the practice of effective face-to-face communication skills further builds organizational capacity.

• Workshops to deliver a deeper understanding of the different generations in the workplace and their specific interests and needs - from both a communications and a human resources perspective. (see Communicating in a Multi-Generational Workplace)

• Communications strategy, advice and counsel support leaders in their ongoing efforts.
