D07 - Championing Cohesion and Collaboration Through Change

Cohesion and collaboration are key markers when seeking out a team's success. Individuals that feel connected to an outcome rather than being instructed are more likely to arrive at the desired result and be happier as they work towards that common goal. This session will discuss the differences between engagement and execution and how one can ensure the other. There is great value in engaging employees in the strategic planning process, as well as long- and short-term goals. This allows for the opportunity to feel empowered and committed not just towards a specific action item, but more importantly, to the team, the unit and the larger organization.
