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.
At WFD, wellbeing is not extra. All staff are committed to their work because the company wants to make a positive difference. Its flexible working policies are a key initiative to support the positive wellbeing of its staff. These policies aim to improve work-life balance, reduce commuting costs, and relieve staff of some workplace pressures.
The company organises an annual “Reading Week” in which it pauses its usual work to discuss what's working well in the business and where change is needed. For 2023, the theme was ‘innovation’, gathering colleagues from across the business for over four days to hear about the application and challenges of delivering results and impact.
All of WFD’s line managers are dedicated to their managerial development through an externally sourced programme. The four-module programme covers 1 - Goal Setting and Engagement, 2 - Workload Management, Prioritisation, and Delegation, 3 - Managing for Performance, including Effective Feedback, and 4 - Coaching and Development Conversations.
