Great Work Kickstart
Managing overwhelm
You know the people in your team and your organization can and should do more Great Work. This is the work where the real value lies. It’s the foundation of the organization’s strategic growth and on-going success. It increases the impact that’s made. And it increases the sense of employee engagement at work and commitment that’s felt.
But how do you get started when everyone is so busy managing overwhelm and struggling to stay focused on what really matters? And even if you do get started on Great Work, how do you stay focused and keep going when it’s so easy to be distracted by the busywork?
Increase employee engagement at work…
Based on Do More Great Work, the best-selling book by Michael Bungay Stanier, this program can help turn the tide. It’s specifically designed to give employees the self-management skills they need to increase their personal effectiveness. Each program session is customized for individual clients, but all have the same objective: to help your people support the organization’s goals while they find, start and self-manage their own Great Work.
As a participant, you will:
- Untangle the difference between Good Work and Great Work (and why you should care)
- Point to the sources of Great Work (and learn which is the only one you can control)
- Uncover the seeds of where you can seek out your own Great Work (there are at least two places to look)
- Discover why companies such as Google use projects as a key way of staying focused on Great Work and practice using the Great Work Project template
- Learn how to align your Great Work Project with organizational needs
- Engage the power of creativity and employee collaboration to build a rigorous action plan to kick start your Great Work Project
- Share strategies to balance your competing responsibilities
- Develop ways and means to help you stay ‘on track’ and stay focused more effectively on your Great Work
Employees, managers and leaders will leave with a Great Work Project Plan that not only increases their sense of purpose and engagement, but will also contribute directly to the organization’s strategic goals. They’ll learn ways to stop managing overwhelm and concentrate on the work that matters.
