CREATING THE MOOD FOR A MORE EFFECTIVE ORGANISATION

"Engagement can be the difference between organisational failure and success, which is why we have developed this product over the last year. The benefit of The Mood Meter is that you don't just get a survey of results, but detailed conclusions, recommendations and clear actions, with Wadenhoe Consultancy support to implement them." explained Ray Atkinson, Managing Director of The Wadenhoe Consultancy, at a recent presentation about "The Mood Meter".

Ray continued: "Even in difficult trading times, talented people have the most choices and usually don't find it hard to manage their own careers. The Mood Meter helps to ensure that organisations keep their talented people".

The Mood Meter provides a fast and reliable picture of how engaged your people are with the organisation and detailed guidance on what to do about it. It is not just about employee/boss relationships, but all the other leadership and cultural aspects of the way people work together in an organisation.

Research and experience highlights that engaged people:
  • Are positive about their job and the team of which they are part.
  • Talk positively to others about their organisation.
  • Try harder for customers, colleagues and the organisation.
  • Are looking for career development inside rather than outside.
And this isn't "soft stuff". Clear links can be made to hard performance measures associated with: staff turnover, customer service, productivity, quality and health & safety.

Taking a regular look at levels of engagement is valuable for all organisations:
  • Those with clear strengths learn about areas to build on.
  • Those with significant limitations see clearly their route map for priority actions.
The Mood Meter provides the base-point from which to start. It collects and analyses data across five dimensions, that enables organisations to better understand:
  • How people feel and talk about the organisation, inside and outside of work.
  • How much discretionary effort people will put into their job.
  • The stress factors that people are feeling.
  • Whether people see rewards and opportunities that match their ambitions.
  • Whether people buy into the values and direction of the organisation.
Then plots the links between them and generates a tailored action-focused report.

This enables you to focus leadership on activities that will really make a measurable short-term impact, whilst addressing longer-term strategic issues.

"Initial reactions from discussions with operations directors and senior management have been very positive. Because it provides a general overview and detailed analysis in one document, they see it as a valuable indicator of the quality of their leadership and can see the potential impact on their bottom line." concluded Ray.
