The WHY of Work: Aligning Passion and Strengths to Get the Job Done
Thursday, April 11 | 9:00am - 10:15am
Session Description:
Staff usually understand what they do for work, but can everyone articulate the "why" of their work? This session will help individuals identify their own personal strengths both external and internal and how to apply those strengths to the work they do to add meaning and purpose. We will outline steps for supervisors to support their staff and staff’s WHY of work which will also create retention and sustainability in the workplace. By using the four basic leadership practices, this will empower you and your staff to better define the WHY of the work which in turn creates buy-in and loyalty for all levels of staff.
