Giving Something Back - The extent to which employees feel their organisation has a positive impact on society
Giving Something Back focuses on the organisation’s social responsibilities. If key factors such as ‘Leadership’ and ‘My Manager’ are performing well, it can influence the improvement of all the other factors, boosting your overall engagement.
Employees are always kept up to date on organisational developments and colleagues' good news, as well as getting the opportunity to ask questions and feedback. There's an internal comms platform where staff can post photos and share ideas, quarterly staff briefings and listening sessions, weekly team meetings and regular formal and informal one-to-ones.
Managers can access external leadership training programmes via ILM or ION. Internal masterclasses offer guidance on line management and employment processes, and all members of the Senior Leadership Team are undertaking coaching and mentoring qualifications. NWH also provides secondment opportunities and the chance to work on cross-team projects.
A focus charity is chosen annually, with the latest being RNLI Wales. There are several charity events throughout the year in and outside work. These have included dragon boat racing and family get-togethers. NWH also supports individual schemes to fundraise and organise their own community benefit events.
