Workplace Agility
Workplace Agility℠ | Barrier IdentificationA process where leadership teams, along with other management and individual contributors, identify barriers to optimum team performance. For organizations that want to improve employee engagement, removing barriers to performance is a great place to start.
By participating in Workplace Agility Barrier Identification, leaders gain invaluable insight into key questions across six dimensions:
- People – Do we have the most effective team? Do we identify and hire the best candidates, integrate them with the team, train and coach them effectively, successfully improve their performance, and retain them?
- Process – Do our processes effectively support our business? Are they well documented to support team training; do they evolve to support changes in business climate; are they appropriately enforced?
- Tools – Do our teams have the right tools? Do our business tools improve worker efficiency and effectiveness; do they adapt as our processes change; are staff properly trained; are tools accepted by our staff?
- Metrics – Do we have the right business metrics? Do metrics we report effectively provide decision-making information we need in an efficient & effective manner, and do members of the organization understand how metrics help us answer key business questions?
- Agility – Are we an agile organization? How effectively do we communicate; do we involve the appropriate stakeholders in project decisions; how do we deal with failure and share new learnings; how empowered are individual teams?
- Management Style – Do our managers positively impact employee engagement? Do they support and trust their teams; are they receptive to ideas from their team members; do they foster innovation; is there effective 2-way communication with their teams; do they consistently lead with integrity?
