KEY ENABLER 1: STRATEGIC NARRATIVE

Strong, visible, empowering leadership provides a strong strategic narrative about the organisation, where it’s come from and where it’s going.

This gives a line of sight between the job and the organisation’s vision.The story is communicated clearly, consistently and constantly.

The past You are here The future

KEY ENABLER 2: ENGAGING MANAGERS

They:

focus their people, offer

scope and enable the job to get

done

treat their people as individuals

coach and stretch their people

KEY ENABLER 3: EMPLOYEE VOICE

There is employee voice throughout the organisation, for reinforcing and challenging views; between functions & externally; employees are really seen as your key asset – not the problem.

9

KEY ENABLER 4: INTEGRITY

There is organisational integrity – the values on the wall are reflected in day to day behaviours.

These expected behaviours are explicit and bought into by staff.

Keep it real – staff see through corporate spin quicker than customers or the public.

Integrity enables trust: no engagement without trust
