I’m reminded of a puzzle…if one piece is missing, the puzzle will never be complete. However, once it’s found and put in place, it will become whole and complete. When we see ourselves as that one piece, we realize that it’s what I have to offer to make it a grand success. -Barbara Banks, Jayhawk Way Participant Communication Communication is the core function of leaders. Great leaders continuously communicate to create clarity, and to engage, inspire and enroll others. Through active listening – to our customers and colleagues – and by practicing the tools we learned in The Jayhawk Way, we can: • Align to clear goals and expectations • come to agreement with civility and transparency, and • flex to others to achieve amazing outcomes. Culture of Safety A safe environment is key to productive work. In addition to physical safety, which is essential, we need to consider psychological safety, which enables students, faculty and staff to voice opinions, ideas and concerns. A safe environment fosters trust, intelligent risk taking, and innovation. Customer Focus Measurement Focus We create a vibrant and supportive environment for education, discovery, and healing. Having an inspiring why and clear goals are key to moving the organization forward together. We find joy in serving our students, faculty, patients, stakeholders, and one another. It is important to know how we’re doing, so we will measure, track, and report on our progress. We seek to understand what our customers need, want and expect from us, and we strive to delight them with every interaction. Measurement need not be complex; it can be as simple as “X to Y by when.” Set milestones and monitor how you are doing in reaching your goals. 90-day action plans are a useful tool in keeping goals in view and practicing accountability. • • • People People Treat Each Other Well Treat Each Other Well Communicate to create clarity and motivation through direct and personal connections with the workforce and key customers. • Move EES “bosses / organization care about me” from yellow to green Seek customer feedback. • All employees meet with at least one customer per month to get comments & suggestions Determine customers' key support requirements; ensure staff members focus on them intently. • All employees will complete customer service training in 2015 • • • Make learning a part of every staff member's performance plan. • All employees will identify one learning / development activity to complete in 2015 Engage, lead and develop the workforce to realize its full potential and to add value. • Move EES “recognized for my work” from yellow to green Create a winning culture. • All employees will have participated in The Jayhawk Way program • Move EES “committed to organization’s success” into top decile • • • Plans Plans Work Hard On Things That Matter Work Hard On Things That Matter Embrace and promote a culture of legal, compliant and ethical behavior as a responsibility shared by all the workforce. • Move EES “high standards and ethics” from yellow to green Each department and individual will identify what is most important now. • Move EES “plans that will affect me” from yellow to green Determine what must be done by whom, by when. • All employees will identify at least one goal in support of the department / Support Services • • • Select, collect, align and integrate data and information to use in tracking daily operations and overall performance. • Move EES “making progress on my work group’s part of the plan” from red to yellow Continuously evaluate and improve everything we do. • Move EES “have good processes” and “control over processes” from yellow to green Create a safe and peaceful workplace. • Move EES “safe workplace” into top decile and “emergency preparedness” from yellow to green Sustainability and Transparency What makes this process sustainable? • Our Playbook • We share it with everyone • We have given presentations on it to a variety of internal groups e.g. our Administrative Director Group Sustainability and Transparency What makes this process sustainable? • Our business card version of our playbook • Highlighted in department newsletter • Turned brochure into poster in department break room Aligning and Tracking Goals Aligning and Tracking Goals Alignment Example Goal: Communicate to create clarity and motivation through direct and personal connections with the workforce and customers - - Seek Customer Feedback - - Determine customer’s key support requirements; ensure staff members focus on them intently - What We’re Currently Doing / Have Done: Teach at new hire to give face-toface time with all new employees. Meet individually with various building emergency liaisons and teams. Continue to send appreciation notes. Overshare all EM information on our website. Give course evaluation sheets after every course we do (i.e. CPR, Active Shooter, Public Safety new hire, etc.). Ask for specific feedback in emergency events and drills (i.e. tornado drill). Offer ICS training to all of staff…to show how each “fit in” to the emergency preparedness goal. Work with individual campus members on Building Emergency Plans, they design their buildings response procedures. Future Goals / Ideas: - Send EM broadcast emails to subscribers.
