Improve the Employee Experience Simply by Asking Better Questions
Presented by Deb Calvert
When HR and frontline managers work together to build a better employee journey, the "glue" that holds all the technology, systems, processes, and training together is the day-to-day interaction between employees and their managers.
When HR builds people practices, learning and development programs, talent acquisition protocols, and engagement initiatives, the make-or-break determinant of success is whether or not stakeholders will understand and fully embrace them.
In this highly interactive workshop, we'll focus on one powerful tool that gets people connected, builds buy-in and commitment, and is often the key ingredient in accelerated success. By simply asking better questions, you'll improve every aspect of the employee experience.
Participants will learn:
- How to improve the questions asked in Behavioral Interviewing and make a great first impression on candidates.
- Key questions every supervisor should be asking to boost employee engagement.
- What kinds of questions build inclusivity and create a sense of belonging in the organization.
- The importance of creating clarity and using questions to be a sensemaker.
- Why managers who ask quality questions out-perform managers with all the answers.
This program is truly a workshop, so come prepared to craft questions that you can immediately apply throughout your organization.
