VENUE
Surprise your hard-working team members with a breathtaking place!
WE ARE NO LONGER IN A 'COMMAND AND CONTROL' MANAGEMENT!
Ask your Business Unit Manager / Team leaders instead of the CEO to present THEIR vision of the strategy. An 8-minute presentation with no more than 3 slides. 'Shoot the pianist' : let the attendees (middle management) discuss, analyze, criticize and ask questions about the WHY, HOW and WHAT.
'TOUR DE TABLE'
Let every participant express him / herself why he / she believes in the strategy and what are his / her doubts.
Invite the people to be transparent about their perceptions & feelings.
That will bring your people together.
USE BREAKOUT ROOMS WITH DIFFERENT TOPICS
- Let the people translate the values into 'expectations'. How can we make them visible,
tangible?
- How can we cascade them to the middle management / work floor?
- How can we help and support each other better in order to reach the results.
STORYTELLING
Let your people tell about their self-victories; why they like / love your company, why they like their customers, why they like the colleagues, …
EVALUATION
Dare to ask your people to evaluate the session at the end of the day. What they liked most. What they liked less and ask everyone for a strong commitment!
FOLLOW-UP
What to do the day after tomorrow! Who is taking the lead to follow-up the good intentions with of course support and commitment of top management.
Don't forget HUMOUR because HUMOUR brings people together!
