Here is a note from Sara (sarabaptistebrown@ewb.ca)!
As a systems thinking leader, you have an opportunity and the ability to take action in your organization. The world is changing, workforces are changing, and stakeholders are changing. Some quick facts:
- human experience is now at the heart of defining and delivering value for business;
- a company’s relationships with society puts approximately 30%of corporate earnings at stake;
- 87%of millennials believe that business success should be measured in terms of more than just financial performance;
- culture and values are the biggest predictors of employee satisfaction.
The common element in all of these is people. I believe that as people (stakeholders, customers, and employees) demand more, companies will need to tap into their people to help create the world we all want to see. At the seventh workshop of the Engineering Change Lab (ECL), we will work to advance engineering workplaces by empowering people to find purpose in their core work.
I’m looking for someone like you + 1 senior leader from your organization join us to explore what drives you and your colleagues, and to transform that into action for a more meaningful and engaging workplace.
This workshop is the first step in a year-long process that will include guided peer-to-peer coaching in the ECL, continuous support from me to integrate the thinking and action into your organization, and a tracking system to measure your organizational progress. There is limited space available to be included in this first cohort and February is approaching fast!
Have questions? Great! Let’s talk this week, at your convenience, about next steps. Contact me via email pivot@ewb.ca or via phone 514-913-4820.

Pivot enables organizations to meaningfully engage their employees to contribute by to having a positive impact on their organization, their industry, and society by working towards the world that we want to live in.
The Engineering Change Lab is a platform for collaboration between individuals and organizations addressing systemic challenges (employee engagement, ethics, diversity, innovation, etc.) that hold back the engineering profession and its people.
