My Team - Employees' feelings towards their immediate colleagues and how well they work together
My team benefits from a high scoring My Manager factor as the manager is key to creating and sustaining a productive and positive work environment.
An employee’s perceived team will be those they work with on a daily basis.
Teams at the organisation are encouraged to build working relationships through regular team meetings that provide structure and support to a typical day or week. Teams also have quarterly get-togethers and wellbeing events are hosted by the wellbeing team. LHP also arrange community events such as canal rubbish cleaning.
The organisation uses SharePoint as a source of news for everyone in the company. It hosts an annual company conference to allow everyone to get together, alongside smaller team and directorate meet ups. Everything is reinforced by the “LHP way” and its new People & Culture Framework which details the behaviours expected from staff.
All managers at LHP attend a four-day programme which teaches them some basic managerial skills, with topics including: what is good leadership, effective communication, performance management, managing a team, my impact on the organisation, delegation, motivation and morale, decision making, analysing what is going well, and action planning. Managers can also study numerous other modules.
