PassionWorks! to enhance staff motivation and engagement at work

The PassionWorks!™ diagnostic and workshop are based on a unique employee engagement model developed specifically to help us to understand and enhance staff engagement and motivation at work. 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 and resulting employee engagement model, 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", by David Jones.

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

The research resulted in a practical employee engagement 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.

Using the on-line diagnostic

Find out more about the comprehensive on-line diagnostic here. The diagnostic will show you which phase of the PassionWorks! model you are in, and, importantly, suggest changes that may be beneficial for you and your team.

Workshops

Workshops are tailored to meet specific needs of our clients and can run from short 'key note' or introductory sessions of 90 minutes, through to in-depth two day team building or leadership development programmes. Typically (although not always) a workshop consists of the completion of the on-line diagnostic beforehand and focused work to help all participants to understand and use the unique PassionWorks! approach. If you would like to discuss how the PassionWorks! approach could be used to enhance staff engagement and motivation, please contact us.
