The Future of Work: Designing Motivating Jobs
In-Person and Virtual Tuesday 06/25/2024 12:30 PM - 01:30 PM   Add to calendar

Competencies: Business (Behavioral), Leadership (Behavioral), Organization (Technical), People (Technical) | Intended Audience: Mid-Level, Senior-Level
Workplace Application:
Participants will learn how work design shapes the employee experience and how to design jobs to be intrinsically motivating. 

Work is broken. Two thirds of employees are disengaged. Voluntary turnover has more than doubled over the last decade. Why? Because we failed to design jobs to meet the intrinsic human needs for meaningful work, autonomy, and feedback. In this session we will explore the power of work design to create intrinsically motivating work, resulting in improved employee engagement, productivity, agility - and a better customer experience.

Learning Objectives:

  • Understand how Job design impacts individual organization and organizational performance.
  • Learn how to utilize work design principles to create intrinsically motivating work.
  • Evaluate whether work design is an appropriate intervention in the organizational context.
