I love seeing employees and leadership embrace change through creative change management, training, and communications programs. Employee success keeps me engaged as a human capital leader. I enjoy designing programs where employees experience something different and impactful and take the time to let us know we’re making a difference.I always learn and try new techniques to engage employees through training and communications. If I didn’t continuously develop in my own skills and specialty, how could I be successful inspiring others to do the same? I share a desire for self-improvement with my team by giving them the opportunities and resources to improve themselves and our offerings.My passion for new learning solutions and communications is the hallmark of my organizational change programs. I maintain employee engagement with variety, creativity and building a two-way dialog so I can listen and adapt. When we use new techniques and hear “We want more of [this or that]” from my stakeholders, I know I’m making a difference for them now and in the future. I’m also improving what I can offer other clients and teammates.My recent efforts include:• Directed a multi-year OCM effort using a variety of creative/modern techniques and tools to build stakeholder awareness and acceptance of a change affecting over 15,000 employees• Directed creating an OCM office to improve customer service for an IT organization serving employees in every state; designed structure, processes and tools based on Prosci ADKAR methodology• Achieved 97% satisfaction for communications and learning effectiveness• Helped 4,000+ employees adopt a change to their work environment – used video vignettes for training and communications to grab employee’s attention – noted by executives as “exceptional”• Tracked 20 employee experience metrics and recommended actions for executivesI build blended learning programs because variety builds employee engagement. Variety also keeps me engaged and growing. My employee communications embrace variety through multiple media. I design eye catching media people remember and ask for again.If you want to engage employees with a variety of modern methods to help them adopt a vision, easily use new technology, go through difficult times, or manage any change, I can help guide you and them to change.
