Culture Forward Webinar Series 2022

by Aug 12, 2022

At Civility Partners we eat, sleep and breathe company culture (it’s dramatic, but true). A positive work environment has endless benefits for employees, the organization, and even the community. We believe in making a respectful work culture a possibility for organizations around the world. 

We (that’s your workforce) spend the majority of our time at work, making it a vital part of how we see ourselves and our self-esteem.

Employees who are engaged and happy at work take that same energy into their homes and into the world around them.

Have you ever gone grocery shopping after a not-great day at work and realized you have no patience to navigate the frenzy of carts around you? Or maybe you had a frustrating interaction with your boss and vented about it to your significant other at home? These events alone may not have a huge impact, but over time they can take a toll.

Ensuring people are bringing positivity into their homes and the community is just one of the many reasons we are so passionate about what we do. 

And we know that the more nooks and crannies you can stuff your culture into, the more opportunities you have to create the positive work environment you seek. Systems like your recruiting, performance management and onboarding can have a big impact on how your employees experience the workplace, both positively and negatively. Your peer nominations for living the core values can only take you so far. 

So, we’re offering a free webinar series to show you some of the ways you can incorporate company culture into your organizational systems! 

We’ll be hosting three free webinars to share everything we know about using your already established HR processes to influence organizational culture: 

  • September 14th: Ingraining Company Culture into Your Recruiting & Hiring Process
  • September 27th: Building a Culture of Collaboration Through Performance Management
  • October 11th: Using Your New Hire Onboarding Program to Reinforce Company Culture

And, as an added bonus for you folks in California, we’ll be ending the series by offering a free Harassment Prevention Training for your workforce to make sure y’all are compliant!

Check out our registration page for full descriptions of each webinar. Register for one, or register for all!

 

Sincerely,
