Did You Know?
Engaging in conversations that may sometimes be difficult helps build strong, trusting relationships. The health of a relationship, team, even an entire organisation can be measured and predicted by the average lag time between identifying and discussing problems.
This is why our performance is significantly impacted when managers avoid difficult conversations and problems linger.
However, often promoted for their strong job skills rather than people management abilities, many managers lack formal training on how to approach sensitive topics effectively.
When individuals are not properly trained and informed, people don’t have the right conversations, or just don’t have the conversations at all. As a result, there’s a loss of trust and engagement.
Our training materials provide comprehensive guidance to help managers plan for, conduct, and follow through on pay discussions successfully.
Through years of pay and reward consulting experience as well extensive research into radical candour and carrying out crucial conversations, we can equip managers with the mindset, tools, and skills necessary for this crucial management responsibility.
How it Works
We will start by building our understanding of the processes you wish to communicate with employees. This will encompass key stages, roles, responsibilities, and outcomes.
We will do this through discussions with your HR team and/or process owners as well as reviewing available reference materials and previous comms.
We will also look to understand your organisation and culture more broadly, including:
- Key aspects of your reward strategy
- The kind of language you use
- Tone of voice
- Preferred style(s) of communication
At this point, we will be able to develop the relevant training and reference materials, which may include short videos, FAQ documents, one-pagers or employee guides.
Our priority will be to maximise the impact of the materials we develop within the agreed budget and brief for the project.
Reward Training – Inclusive Learning
We all learn and consume information in different ways. Offering a range of training materials will give your team members equal opportunities to develop a clear understanding.
Our reward and communications experts can create resources that cater to every employee or manager. We’ll ensure your company branding and tone of voice are maintained consistently throughout.
