2. Why People are important
• Energy Efficiency is a whole of business activity
• Use key people to shape, guide and inform outcomes
• An Energy Efficiency Champion backed by the Team is a key success factor
3. People - Strategic Planning
Identify the people you want to involve over the assessment
cycle:
– why are you involving these people?
– what skills/expertise/knowledge do they contribute?
– when do they need to be engaged?
– how are you going to engage them?
4. People – Iterative process
• Continuous engagement of people over the assessment cycle
• Build up expertise over time
• Progressive or iterative use of tools and resources, so your people build
on and learn from past experience
5. People – Lessons Learnt
• When planning who to involve in assessment process, learn
from what happened in first cycle:
– what worked well? - build on that success
– who wasn’t involved and should have been?
– who did you want to involve but had trouble engaging?
– how will you engage them this cycle?
6. Learning from the first cycle
“We have good support from the CEO but in the second cycle
we would like to get key senior divisional staff more involved
in EEO. We expect that by promoting what we have achieved
to date and briefing them on the benefits at the divisional and
company level then we will get more support for projects that
have not yet been funded or implemented.”

Editor's Notes
Energy Efficiency is a whole of business activity many employees are part of the energy efficiency process ownership of outcomes is critical unrelated business benefits may result – eg. OHS Use key people to shape, guide and inform outcomes involve the right people at the right stage of the assessment The experience of many corporations is that an Energy Efficiency Champion backed by the Team is a key success factor
We have already heard from Dominic today that the Department is encouraging corporations to take a strategic view of all aspects of the assessment process. This of course includes the involvement of the right people in the assessment process. But what does this mean in relation to people? One way is to make a list of all the people you intend to get involved in the assessment process. In doing so establish: Who are the right mix of people to get involved at various stages of the assessment process? set direction and buy-in provide data analysis to get good investigation and development of business case Why are you involving these people? What skills and expertise do they bring to the process? – a diversity of views and input can be a good thing What contribution will they make? When do they need to be engaged? How are you going to get them engaged? - energy savings KPIs for key personnel has been effective.
Continuous engagement of people over the assessment cycle not a one off exercise integrating energy efficiency assessments with existing business systems seek different levels of input over assessment phases (e.g. brainstorming, opportunity identification, business case development, implementation) Build up expertise over time develop expertise within and across sites / business activities network of energy managers Integration of people over time Progressive or iterative use of tools and resources - so your people build on - and learn, from past experience. reinvest proportion of energy savings into more opportunities
When planning who to involve in the assessment process, learn from what happened in the first cycle: what worked well? - build on that success who wasn’t involved and should have been? who did you want to involve but had trouble engaging? how are you planning to approach things differently in the second cycle in order to get a more integrated approach from all those you need to be involved? articulate this in your next AP and use it as engagement process
A copy of the publication – “Lessons learnt at the 2011 EEO workshops” is available to you all today. It has some great suggestions in it about how to build staff awareness and engagement in energy efficiency. One example on page 5 of that publication is from Amcor Australasia: “ We have good support from the CEO but in the second cycle we would like to get key senior divisional staff more involved in EEO. We expect that by promoting what we have achieved to date and briefing them on the benefits at the divisional and company level then we will get more support for projects that have not yet been funded or implemented.” Matea Čehovin, Sustainability Business Analyst, Amcor Australasia – Day 1 Workshop, Melbourne
