Why?
Why focus on employee connection?
Connections and relationships no longer happen by accident
In the old days, connection happened by default. But in today’s hybrid workplace, we must intentionally prioritise connection, or lose it. We must also recognise that people need new psychological and practical skills to help them trust, communicate and build relationships with colleagues they rarely see IRL. Expecting people to figure it out themselves is risky and leads to fragmented behaviours across teams – which creates another set of connection challenges.
The key to better engagement, productivity and retention
Training your leaders, managers and teams to be Connection Heroes improves communication and collaboration, strengthens trust and accountability, builds resilience, encourages agility and inclusion, and creates a sense of belonging that drives engagement, productivity and retention. Through our courses, we also coach your people to co-create new ways your business can support connection through improvements to current systems and practices.
Connection is great for people and profit
Business metrics, KPIs and skills development are only part of the story. Connected employees experience a greater sense of wellbeing, feel less isolated when working remotely, and are more able to contribute to a company-wide culture of connection that helps you recruit and retain happy, healthy teams. Connection Heroes feel less isolated, more focused, better able to manage stress and are more confident in asking for help when they need it.
