PassionWorks!™ to enhance engagement and commitment at work
1-2 Days

The PassionWorks!™ diagnostic and workshop have been developed specifically to help us to understand and enhance staff engagement and motivation. A vital weapon in the war for talent.

Passion at work - a new definition:

"Passion at work is what we feel when we are doing meaningful work that makes us feel better about ourselves at a pace that feels like real progress".

It is not about being extroverted, excited, dynamic or fast. It is about commitment and engagement. It is about getting more out of our work and bringing more to it. Ultimately it is about having personnel who are engaged, and motivated by what they are doing.

The Research

The PassionWorks!™ programme was developed through interviewing over two hundred people who were identified as passionate about their work. These people were taken from a wide variety of industries around the world and from differing levels. The purpose of the research was to demystify what we identify as passion.

The research resulted in the book "PassionWorks!™ - Your guide to passion in the modern workplace".

The Model - A practical model that can be used by individuals, managers and leaders

The research resulted in a practical model that enhances our understanding of the components of creating and sustaining passion at work; how it can be maximised to create an optimal working environment for and by leaders, teams and individuals.

Ensuing Business Benefits  By completing the PassionWorks!™ programme and using the techniques, you will uncover a further range of benefits that will enrich your organisation as a whole.
