It makes you wonder how they do that, right? Imagine how valuable it would be if your large distributed workforce acted with that kind of synergized action in their daily health, safety and security practices. That’s called Work Force Synergy.
When an enterprise is synchronized, team members learn and practice the same skills simultaneously to maximize its potential. Can you imagine the value of your investment in wellness, safety, security programs if all team members, no matter where they work, would learn and practice common:
“¢ Healthy work habits that enhance performance and reduce risk of injuries?
“¢ Safety routines, emergency procedures and action plans?
“¢ Security protocols, control system use and access procedures?
Imagine the benefits of pushing an effective, meaningful, relevant e-Learning module providing health, safety and security insights, procedures and resources to every team member simultaneously just prior to the move. Then, imagine releasing an annual refresher of these procedures to everyone along with results of the previous year’s progress. And, imagine this same module being re-purposed for new team member onboarding.
Imagine having team health, safety and security synergized across the entire enterprise.
Whether there are 200 or 20,000 in the enterprise, whether you’re located on a large campus or supporting facilities across the globe, a solid case can be made for developing learning elements that ensure consistent health, safety and security practices enterprise-wide. We’d love to show you how we’ve done this for clients like you.

Why care about improving enterprise negotiation skills?

Of all the items on your enterprise priority list, who would ever think of taking the time to train team members with negotiation skills?
The truth is, nearly everything we do involves negotiation. If it involves people, it involves negotiation. And, with today’s technology, good negotiation skills are essential whether you are face-to-face with a coworker, on a video conference with your project team, or exchanging IMs with a traveling colleague from across the globe.
Why negotiation skills are important to the enterprise
Did you know that small adjustments in posture, attitude and positioning can make a huge difference in the outcome of your conversations? Practicing a few simple negotiating techniques can impact the decisions people make every day.
When applied widely through the organization, negotiation skills can improve enterprise efficiency, performance, engagement, and even profitability. Applying negotiation skills through appropriate training, practice and reinforcement can be one of those invaluable, essential work force synergy tools that give an enterprise a competitive edge.
“As every company becomes digital, it’s going to change your leadership style, the skill sets you need, and how you work with teams.”
John Chambers, Executive Chairman, Cisco Systems
Who would ever think of making negotiation a priority employee skill? Those leaders who wish to take their organization to the next level, that’s who.
Because talented negotiators typically exhibit superior interpersonal skills, powers of persuasion, and problem solving, resulting in reducing conflicts, improved team collaboration, and relationships building, perhaps upgrading your teams with negotiation skills should be given a serious look!

Four ways occupants can help achieve your LEED ROI

Have you just opened or are planning a LEED (Leadership in Energy & Environmental Design) building? No doubt you and your planning team just can’t wait to see it all come together…and no doubt that executive leadership has high expectations for the return on their LEED investment. You can do that by influencing occupant sustainability behaviors.
With the disruption of the move to the new workplace, you can imagine things like recycling a coffee cup, details of the gray water system and conserving energy won’t exactly be top-of-mind for occupants…that is unless you do something about it!
Occupant actions could have a significant impact on LEED results
Did you know that the behaviors of occupants can influence the sustainable results achieved by 30% or more? What’s your plan convince the building occupants to appreciate and actually take advantage of the sustainable features?
Consider these four ways you can spark sustainable participation of building occupants in order to maximize your LEED investment:
1. Discovering details on the building design and sustainability features. Most people are naturally drawn to conservation, so tell them so they can be proud to be a part of it.
2. Getting jazzed about working in a sustainable environment. The more they know about the automated thermal systems, special acoustics, low energy lighting, green purchasing, and personal controls, the more they’ll be prone to own it.
3. Learning the impact that simple daily actions will have in achieving energy and water conservation, recycling and waste management, and setting sustainable commuting goals. Go out of your way to demonstrate the systems in the first few days to prime their sustainable actions to make them permanent habits.
4. Emphasize the contribution each occupant can make in sustainability through workplace stewardship by encouraging life-cycle decision making, following policies for retiring equipment, selecting service providers, and other key actions important to system success.
There’s little doubt about the value of driving the sustainable behaviors of building occupants and visitors. To do that, you’ll need to make sustainable behaviors a bigger part of everyone’s daily routine. With a bit of education, simple guidance, incentivized encouragement and peer recognition, the behaviors of your LEED building occupants and visitors could result in a substantial return on your sustainability program investment.
