Conversational Management powered by Integrity Communications
Is your company cultivating a high-performance, feedback-rich culture?
Conversational Management, powered by Integrity Communications, can help you do that! No need to struggle to retain talent or engage your next-generation leaders. This program empowers employees to behave and operate in ways that have predictably better outcomes and aims to change how leaders, managers, and employees communicate. Four key components contribute to a client's success.
Exploratory Questions & Reflective Listening
Participants learn how to make conversations interactive and empowering anytime, with anyone.
Goal Setting
Participants learn a collaborative process called "IMR Goal Setting" to establish goals and objectives. This process gives employees a strong attachment, ownership, and accountability to project outcomes.
Feedback
Participants learn how to use a coaching approach to providing feedback, including reinforcement feedback (positive outcomes/behaviors) and reflective feedback (undesired outcomes/behaviors).
Management Practices
Participants learn the 15 most effective management practices proven to keep employees fully engaged and consistently giving the best effort in their daily roles.
