Workforce Development | How your employees’ personal growth can grow your business

How your employees’ personal growth can grow your business

We believe the process of transforming your organization into a more vital and engaging enterprise begins with transforming your people in profound ways. We help them to see what they aspire to and what they’re capable of, where they have abandoned their power and how it can be reclaimed.

We show them specific ways in which they have taken themselves out of the game—and the ways to get back in. We focus on integrity, accountability, and participation. We show them pathways to manage themselves, and their careers.

At Vitalwork, we offer a number of programs to foster personal growth and engagement among your employees:

Claim Leadership Series

The days are past when leadership was the sole province of the select few in the executive suite. The demands of today’s rapid-fire world require a changing workforce—one that employs leaders throughout your organization. These are employees at every level, who “claim leadership” for themselves to seize a position of greater responsibility and accountability than ever before.

Our Claim Leadership Series is a unique experience that transforms your mission-critical managers, wherever they are in your company, into engaged leaders. Managing employee performance becomes a task that employees take on for themselves. You could be surrounded by leaders.

Vital Teamwork Series

Teams hold more promise for success in the new world of work than any other configuration of workers. But team effectiveness requires intention and effort:

  • the articulation of a compelling vision
  • the unleashing of each member’s talent, perspective, and style
  • the building of robust work relationships
  • synergy that propels performance and achievement far beyond what any individual could achieve

The Vital Teamwork Series translates these concepts into the practices of interdependency and workplace collaboration that team members can rapidly put to work with their colleagues. The new team dynamics integrate a fresh look at the efforts of the team, methods to increase everyone’s involvement and participation, and skills to bring it all together.The result—unprecedented levels of workplace productivity.

Crucial Conversations® Skill Development

You may point to an inventory snafu or a mistake on the manufacturing floor or an unavoidably irate client, but lousy results in the marketplace are generally the result of a failure to communicate honestly, candidly, respectfully—and fully. It means difficult but necessary conversations are not being conducted.

You know what it’s like to experience this—when the stakes are high, emotions run strong. People shut up, or start shouting, neither of which helps the situation at hand. It’s a universal problem. And it’s solvable.

Crucial Conversations® Skill Development is a proven way to “get unstuck.” Advanced workplace communication—the ability to talk honestly with anyone and everyone about what’s going on in the organization—is the first foundational step toward ensuring that work moves forward rather than around in circles. Participants learn the principles, methods and practices that allow them to engage in dialogue that creates solutions.
