------ LEARNING WORKSHOPS ------
Making Mergers Work Out - A one day leadership team workshop that looks at
the cost of the human resources side of a mismanaged merger. Learn: to recognize problems and leadership mistakes;
how to manage employees through the three merger phases; how to build teams; how to manage corporate culture differences.
Be provided guidelines for making your merger workout. Follow up coaching recommended.
Navigating the World of Change - A
highly interactive change management half day workshop delivered to three different audiences; executive teams,
managers and a general workforce. The education provides participants with the tools to understand, personally cope with,
and eventually lead through organizational change events. The session fosters effectiveness and a change-hardy
workforce.
Effective
Termination & Downsizing - A half day
management workshop frequently delivered to a company with whom we are coaching through the planning and implemention
phases of a reduction-in-force, downsizing or difficult individual termination. Because of the potential disruption of a
poorly handled termination or downsizing, this workshop educates your manager(s) about the "should and should not"
of the termination meeting. Managers learn to prepare and deliver the message without creating an impact on morale
or legal exposure for the company.
PEPTM (Performance Enhancement Process) Coaching - An individualized one-on-one job
coaching solution providing employee management/leadership skill development or performance enhancement if a problem
exists. Personal coaching provided by Pinnacle may last up to 12 months but is usually concluded within 3-4 months and
involves numerous confidential interactions with the participant. We meet with management to understand the situation and
objective. We then meet the individual to establish rapport and complete a full career assessment and communication/workstyle
self-assessment. If appropriate to the objectives of the engagement and with the approval of all stakeholders, we are
able to implement your organization's confidential 360 degree survey with targeted targeted individuals. Next, a career
enhancement plan is developed. A PinnacleES' coach then works with the participant through the enhancement plan
while providing progress feedback to the sponsor and a final report at the engagement's conclusion. In the
case of an employee problem, we find 78% of the time the PEP program results in a happier and again productive team member.
In some instances however the person may realize the organizational "fit" is poor and leaves the company through
an outplacement package. Others may want to look for a new position (inside or outside the company) with the
knowledge and support of management. Outcomes may include increased department morale and eventually a better job fit for the person transitioning.
