Developing the Coaching Skills for Your Managers and LeadersErin Boettge
What are the obligations of managers? The answer to this question varies from organization to organization based upon a number of factors such as industry, culture, department, skill level of the team, etc. Regardless of the organization, at the very heart of this question lies a dilemma.
Managers may have to perform well, depending upon a variety of situations at various places along a continuum, ranging from ensuring employees comply with established processes and procedures at one end, to career development and skill improvement towards the other end. Who’s to say which of the outcomes is more or less important?
In fact, we’d probably agree that the outcomes suggested by such a continuum are all important depending upon the situation. With so many possible outcomes and objectives legitimately competing for our managers’ attention, are there a set of uniform skills or competencies we can use to guide our managers ongoing training and development?
In this webinar you’ll learn:
Why coaching skills are important for your managers, leaders and organization
What is coaching and how to apply key skills to align with specific employees and situations
An overview of traditional coaching models and what you can do to improve them
How we can get managers to make time to coach
A “coaches toolkit” that includes emerging competencies for managers and leaders
The key difference between coaching and mentoring
The document discusses leadership skills and performance. It introduces Desmond St. Rose, an engineer who will present on this topic. It then outlines the presentation, covering leadership skills like communication, strategy, and effectiveness. It discusses developing these skills and using them to improve performance through cognitive processes, development, and setting goals. The presentation aims to help leaders enhance their skills and motivate high performance from their teams.

She aims to motivate and inspire others through self-assured and self-efficacious leadership, in order to create positive change rather than disorder.

This white paper examines the topic of employee happiness and engagement. It discusses how employee turnover and motivation impact business metrics like revenue and culture. While compensation is an important driver of engagement, employees also value work-life balance. Some companies are trying to improve engagement through perks, workplace flexibility, and creating positions focused on talent management and happiness. Tracking engagement allows companies to identify issues and priorities for building strategies to retain top talent.
The document outlines 4 strategies to improve performance at work: 1) Learn how to manage priorities and separate relevant from irrelevant tasks with a sense of urgency. 2) Develop a positive mental attitude that others will want to be around and promote. 3) Improve skills and seek knowledge by taking additional courses and discussing them with your boss. 4) The importance of personality at work - listening to others to gain their trust, help, and responsibilities.
This document discusses measuring and maintaining employee engagement. It begins by examining the challenges in defining and measuring engagement, noting that some see it more as a feeling than something strictly quantifiable. It then reviews different engagement surveys and their focuses, such as levels of engagement or key drivers. The document warns that surveys only provide part of the picture and notes other approaches like those from positive psychology. Finally, it discusses measuring the impact of engagement initiatives and using engagement levels over time as a metric to assess success.
The document discusses employee engagement, including its definition, importance, and ways to measure and improve it. Specifically:
- Employee engagement refers to an employee's positive attachment and enthusiasm for their work, colleagues, and organization that influences their performance and willingness to contribute further.
- Highly engaged employees benefit organizations through improved performance, communication, customer satisfaction, teamwork and lower turnover.
- Managers play a key role in driving engagement through recruiting the right people, coaching, communicating clear objectives, and showing appreciation for good work.
- Engagement can be measured through surveys that assess employees' pride, motivation, and likelihood to recommend the organization to others. Regular measurement helps identify areas for improvement.

For years, manufacturing companies have been striving towards enterprise excellence throughout their organizations utilizing the philosophy, thinking and tools of lean. There are two basic pillars of lean including continuous improvement tools, and respect for people. There has been a very strong focus on the continuous improvement tools (kaizens, value stream mapping, A3 problem solving, 5S, cells/flow, setup reduction, etc.) with very little emphasis on respect for people. Businesses struggle with understanding the skills and abilities of leadership at every level of the organization required to inspirationally lead towards excellence.
As a result of the combination of the process initiatives over the past 100 years, seven out of eight people report leaving their jobs each day feeling that they work for a company that does not care about them. People are disengaged and unenthusiastic about their work resulting in huge losses of productivity to the entire organization.
Recently, the Association for Manufacturing Excellence (AME), the premier not-for-profit organization dedicated to the journey of continuous improvement and enterprise excellence, invited Barry-Wehmiller to partner with them in addressing the challenges facing manufacturing today. Together they hope to lead the way in transforming manufacturing companies through adoption of people-centric leadership practices. Their vision is to ignite a manufacturing renaissance driven by people-centric leadership coupled with enterprise excellence.

Practical Models for Effective Employee Engagement in Support of Evolving Sus...Sustainable Brands
The intersection of sustainability programs and employee engagement is a critical component of any company's sustainability or CSR agenda. So much work is being done and demanded at this intersection that we can confidently say it is one of the few hottest topics – if not THE hottest one – in the global Sustainable Brands community this year. This workshop will piece together a compilation of best-in-class approaches to effective employee engagement to date, highlighting practical conceptual frameworks, tools and case studies that are proving especially valuable.
Organizational culture refers to the values, expectations, and practices that guide employee behavior within a company. A positive culture improves performance while a dysfunctional one hinders organizations. Culture is defined by consistent behaviors rather than mission statements. It affects all aspects of a business from employee satisfaction to performance. Companies with strong, values-aligned cultures attract top talent and outperform competitors. They prioritize culture from day one by hiring for culture fit and reinforcing values. High-performing cultures exhibit qualities like alignment, appreciation, trust, teamwork, integrity and innovation. Leaders must advocate for and embody the culture while employees are given opportunities to provide feedback and continuously learn and develop.

Bringing Corporate Wellness Into Focus | Employee Services Webinar Series CBIZ, Inc.
This document discusses emerging best practices for corporate wellness programs. It begins by outlining the webinar objectives to learn how taking a holistic "zoom out" approach improves outcomes, reviews a process for enhancing wellness programs, and considers trending practices. Six essential elements of an effective framework are then described: organizational commitment, sustainable operating environment, data analysis and strategic planning, benefit plan design and interventions, engagement and recognition, and outcomes and quality assurance. Emerging trends in each area are provided, such as aligning wellness missions with business goals and using intangible incentives. The document concludes by listing emerging trends and providing contact information to continue the discussion.
This document summarizes a seminar presentation about the need and relevance of values in management. It discusses how values provide important guidelines for behavior and influence attitudes. There are different types of values, such as instrumental values and terminal values. Values are different than facts in that values represent personal beliefs about what is good, while facts are objective statements. The document also outlines the importance of values for organizations in contributing to shared meaning and culture, and how values are relevant for managers in decision-making and social responsibility.
The document discusses organizational culture, comparing the cultures of two manufacturing firms, Organization A and Organization B. Organization A has a risk-averse, detail-oriented culture where rules are strictly followed and individual work is emphasized. Organization B encourages risk-taking, rewards innovation, has loose supervision and focuses on teamwork. The document also covers how cultures form based on founders' philosophies and socialization of new employees, and how cultures can impact performance, customer responsiveness and ethics.
This document discusses how leaders can build values-driven organizations by reducing cultural entropy. It defines cultural entropy as unnecessary or unproductive work that prevents peak performance and causes employee stress and frustration. High cultural entropy is linked to low employee engagement. The document recommends that leaders measure their current culture, desired culture, and personal entropy to identify misalignments. Transforming the culture involves addressing employee needs by reducing sources of conflict, friction and frustration through changes to structures, systems, policies and developing leaders who express less fear-driven energy. Developing a deliberately developmental organization can help engage employees by supporting their personal growth.
What is the Importance of Organizational Behaviour for an Employee.pdfMr. Business Magazine
The importance of organizational behaviour affects the most to an employee. It deals with the study of human behaviour within group settings and how this behaviour can be modelled through analysis to make a positive impact.
The document discusses organizational culture and its functions. It describes how organizational culture can reduce conflict and uncertainty, promote coordination and control, and motivate employees. It also discusses four types of organizational culture: clan, hierarchical, market, and adhocracy. Additionally, it outlines characteristics and elements of strong and weak organizational cultures. Signs of strong cultures include customer satisfaction, employee empowerment and belonging, while signs of weak cultures include uneven customer experiences and siloed employees.
The document discusses employee relations and reward systems. It defines employee relations as a company's efforts to manage relationships between employers and employees. It notes that a good employee relations program provides fair treatment to employees to gain their commitment and loyalty. It also discusses the importance of developing harmonious relations between management and labor for productivity and industrial progress. Additionally, it outlines factors that influence employee relations such as institutional, economic, technological, psychological, political/legal, and global factors. Finally, it discusses challenges and best practices for employee reward systems, including linking rewards to performance and company objectives.
This document discusses organizational change and its impacts on mental health. It notes that 45% of Australians will experience a mental health condition in their lifetime, costing workplaces $10.9 billion annually due to issues like absenteeism and presenteeism. Poor organizational change management, high job demands, low job control, and poor support are identified as key causes of work-related psychological injuries. The Job Demand Control Support model is presented, showing that high strain jobs with high demands and low control/support carry the highest risks for psychological issues. Tips are provided for improving organizational change, such as empowering leaders, identifying positive outliers, engaging simply, shaping social norms, and sharing information while listening to feedback.
This document discusses building high-performance cultures and enabling work-life balance. It provides an overview of aAdvantage Consulting, which helps organizations achieve transformation through solutions like culture transformation and HR transformation. The document outlines challenges organizations face in attracting and engaging talent, and increasing productivity. It discusses how organizational culture is critical to success and how companies with strong cultures that focus on employees outperform peers. The document proposes that cultural capital and values are the new competitive advantage and provides a framework for whole-system cultural transformation.

This document outlines a research project investigating the effectiveness of a tailored workplace exercise program for preventing work-related upper limb disorders. The project will develop and implement a 12-week program of resistance, eccentric, and stretching exercises for employees at risk of such injuries. Outcome measures will assess subjective reports, physical measures, task data, and injury rates before, during, and after the program to determine if exercises can help reduce upper limb conditions when targeted to individual jobs and abilities. A literature review found prior programs have benefits but need duration of at least 10-12 weeks to be effective.
This document discusses SDS requirements in New Zealand, both currently and potential future changes. It outlines that SDSs are an important part of ensuring workplace health and safety by providing hazardous substance information. Requirements include having a compliant SDS available within 10 minutes for any hazardous chemicals on site. The document also reviews SDS content requirements, common issues with non-NZ SDSs, and potential increased enforcement of SDS compliance regulations in the future.
This document summarizes an assessment of musculoskeletal disorders on large fishing vessels in New Zealand. It finds that the risk of injury is highest on vessels over 24 meters due to more time spent at sea, more crew members, and more physically demanding tasks. The assessment identified manual handling and slips/trips/falls as the most common causes of injury. It observed many physically demanding tasks performed in difficult conditions and proposed that interventions focusing on ergonomic improvements, training, fitness and hydration could help reduce injuries in the fishing industry.
This document discusses occupational health risk assessment, legal compliance, and uncertainties. It covers New Zealand's Health and Safety Reform Bill requiring employers to eliminate or minimize risks. It also discusses risk management standards and the risk assessment process of identification, analysis, and evaluation. The document outlines uncertainties that can arise in risk identification, analysis, criteria, and evaluation for airborne exposures. It emphasizes that a lack of knowledge and imperfect information can introduce uncertainty, and risk assessors must consider how uncertainties affect the overall risk evaluation and what can be done to manage uncertainties.
This document provides information about machinery guarding standards and regulations. It discusses findings from WorkSafe inspections that found older machinery often lacked guarding while newer machinery was generally guarded. Standards like AS 4024 provide specifications for machine guarding and safety distances to prevent access to hazard zones. The document outlines various standards regarding risk assessment, guards, safety distances, and safety control systems that are relevant for achieving safe machinery guarding.
This document discusses effective health and safety strategies for an aging workforce in New Zealand. It notes that over 1 million New Zealanders are aged 55+ and nearly half of them work. As the population continues to age, employers will need to prepare for an older workforce. The document recommends that employers understand the specific needs of older workers, develop age-based risk assessments to account for common health issues, and provide tailored training, support programs and flexible work arrangements. The key messages are to identify the needs of the aging workforce, develop a risk strategy based on those needs, and provide relevant health and safety information.
The document discusses creating a healthy lifestyle through work-life balance. It emphasizes finding meaningful work that provides physical activity, social connection, and financial security. It recommends developing a career plan to ensure work remains fulfilling and aligns with one's goals. Additionally, it suggests maintaining health through regular checkups, exercise, nutrition, financial planning, and avoiding stressors like smoking or overwork. The overall message is that prioritizing well-being, balance, and fulfillment across work, health, and personal life leads to positive outcomes.
This document discusses health loss and its causes in New Zealand. It uses the measure of disability-adjusted life years (DALYs) to estimate health loss. Mental disorders, injury, and chronic diseases are among the leading causes of health loss across different age groups. Projections estimate a 13% increase in DALYs from 2006 to 2016, with cancer, heart disease, and anxiety/depressive disorders as the top causes. Risk factors like tobacco use, high BMI, and injury risks are preventable contributors to health loss. The document advocates for occupational health programs to identify workplace hazards, monitor employee health, and manage risks to keep employees fit for work.

Cell Therapy Expansion and Challenges in Autoimmune DiseaseHealth Advances
There is increasing confidence that cell therapies will soon play a role in the treatment of autoimmune disorders, but the extent of this impact remains to be seen. Early readouts on autologous CAR-Ts in lupus are encouraging, but manufacturing and cost limitations are likely to restrict access to highly refractory patients. Allogeneic CAR-Ts have the potential to broaden access to earlier lines of treatment due to their inherent cost benefits, however they will need to demonstrate comparable or improved efficacy to established modalities.
In addition to infrastructure and capacity constraints, CAR-Ts face a very different risk-benefit dynamic in autoimmune compared to oncology, highlighting the need for tolerable therapies with low adverse event risk. CAR-NK and Treg-based therapies are also being developed in certain autoimmune disorders and may demonstrate favorable safety profiles. Several novel non-cell therapies such as bispecific antibodies, nanobodies, and RNAi drugs, may also offer future alternative competitive solutions with variable value propositions.
Widespread adoption of cell therapies will not only require strong efficacy and safety data, but also adapted pricing and access strategies. At oncology-based price points, CAR-Ts are unlikely to achieve broad market access in autoimmune disorders, with eligible patient populations that are potentially orders of magnitude greater than the number of currently addressable cancer patients. Developers have made strides towards reducing cell therapy COGS while improving manufacturing efficiency, but payors will inevitably restrict access until more sustainable pricing is achieved.
Despite these headwinds, industry leaders and investors remain confident that cell therapies are poised to address significant unmet need in patients suffering from autoimmune disorders. However, the extent of this impact on the treatment landscape remains to be seen, as the industry rapidly approaches an inflection point.
Local Advanced Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex Sys...Oleg Kshivets
Overall life span (LS) was 1671.7±1721.6 days and cumulative 5YS reached 62.4%, 10 years – 50.4%, 20 years – 44.6%. 94 LCP lived more than 5 years without cancer (LS=2958.6±1723.6 days), 22 – more than 10 years (LS=5571±1841.8 days). 67 LCP died because of LC (LS=471.9±344 days). AT significantly improved 5YS (68% vs. 53.7%) (P=0.028 by log-rank test). Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: N0-N12, T3-4, blood cell circuit, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells-CC and blood cells subpopulations), LC cell dynamics, recalcification time, heparin tolerance, prothrombin index, protein, AT, procedure type (P=0.000-0.031). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and N0-12 (rank=1), thrombocytes/CC (rank=2), segmented neutrophils/CC (3), eosinophils/CC (4), erythrocytes/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), stick neutrophils/CC (8), leucocytes/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (error=0.000; area under ROC curve=1.0).
