EES feedback

Was one of a handful of engineers selected to give post-feedback in response to a less than satisfactory Employee Engagement Survey.

The session was arranged such that officers were encouraged to give honest feedback. Cosy sofa, lots of F&B, casual seating arrangement. It was chaired by an external consultant, and they made sure no management was present, and all feedback would be non-attributory i.e. anonymous.

It was a fruitful session with lots of productive inputs and useful insights... usual topics touching on remuneration, appraisal, audits, procurement processes etc...

Anyway, the final question to end the session was (and everyone had to say something) - if you were the CEO of this company, what would you want to implement?

My response(s):
1) Seek to dispel the myth (or is it not) of how one's career path is religiously tagged to one's CEP, which they claim can be modified to one's potential and performance - for more engaged staff
2) Attain ISO certification (9001, 14001, 18001 and the likes) - apply best practices and ensure consistency in standards
3) Introduce 1-hourly 'active lifestyle' per week - healthier bodies and social cohesion!

kthxbye.
