Creating a plan for real change
Action planning draws from what we’ve learned in the survey and allows IU Human Resources, leaders, managers, and staff across the university to engage in discussions. Together, we identify an action plan—aligned with one of the survey questions—to enhance employee engagement.
You can get involved in your unit’s action planning process by contacting your manager, supervisor, or your HR contact.
Action planning includes you and everyone on your team
We want to give everyone the opportunity to take part in making changes that affect the quality of their work environment. You are encouraged to participate in the collaborative action planning process, even if you did not receive or complete the survey.
Gallup developed a simple, powerful process:
- Your team determines what the results mean to your unit or department in an open, guided discussion.
- You uncover the top opportunities to enhance what works well or address opportunities to improve.
- Together, you create a few simple action plans to make changes that can increase engagement.
Your team sets the tone for the culture and dynamics. Together, you are responsible for setting the goals and establishing plans that will help you drive better performance.
You are also responsible for owning your personal engagement. Workers at all levels of the company should create individual goals that support their needs and the needs of their coworkers.
