Great Place to Work institute has been conducting research on the characteristics of great workplaces for more than 25 years.  Their research has shown that leaders and managers in great workplaces strive to create a culture of trust in the workplace.  Employees at great workplaces have pride in what they do and enjoy the people they work with.  The model they have developed reflects these key relationships and further defines how it all plays out in the Five Dimensions of a Great Place to Work: Credibility, Respect, Fairness, Pride, and Camaraderie.  This training package and assessment introduces the concept and model behind A Great Place to Work—defined as one in which employees trust the people they work for, have pride in what they do, and enjoy the people they work with-- developed in 1984 and validated through its enduring resonance in both the United States and in 40 countries around the world. This training package provides strategies and development activities for applying the model in the workplace.

What separates a Great Company from a merely good one? More than offering great pay and quirky perks, a great workplace is one where employees trust the people they work for, take pride in what they do, and are motivated to achieve superior performance. In short, you—as manager and colleague—are the critical difference between a very good company and a great company. Based on a many years of research and training conducted at the Great Place to Work® Institute—producers of the FORTUNE 100 Best Companies to Work For® Annual List—The Great Workplace: Building Trust and Inspiring Performance Workshop brings together the lessons and examples for creating a high-trust work environment that the authors have learned from the best companies. These stories and exercises will illuminate and inspire you to: <ul>
<li> Communicate openly and transparently. </li> <li> Be reliable and honor commitments. </li> <li> Take a sincere interest in the people you manage and your fellow employees. </li> <li> Appreciate people's good work and extra effort. </li> <li> Involve people in appropriate decisions. </li> <li> Contribute to becoming a Great Workplace. </li> </ul>
Creating a great workplace is not an endeavor that can be done by the next quarter. It is not something that can be delegated, nor is it something that some other department does. It is not this year's initiative. It is a long-term commitment, for you are the steward of your organization's journey to become a Great Place to Work®!
