Room 2 : « Emotional Commitment: A Lever for Loyalty »
By Marielle Bourguignon-Cyr | Consultant for ALIA Conseil

 

This workshop-seminar is tailored for persons wishing to reinforce their knowledge in engagement management to integrate certain strategies in their management practice and contribute to the increase in organizational performance. Engagement corresponds to an employee’s psychological state of mind regarding his/her organization. It determines an employee’s intention to maintain a link with it. Businesses which act on engagement have greater productivity, feature a more attractive atmosphere and quality of life at work and a lower turnover rate. Because engagement is a key factor to increase the investment in work in addition to personal and professional satisfaction, it is appropriate to empower managers regarding the improvement of sound management techniques.

This workshop deals with the distinction between engagement and mobilization; the importance of engagement and evolution of the concept since the pandemic; the nature of engagement (rational or emotional); the fundamental pillars of emotional engagement; management strategies which encourage engagement and mobilization.

« Human Skills: A Key for Success in Business »
By Benoit Chalifoux | an international speaker and professor at the UQAM École des sciences de la gestion [School of Management]

All businesses seek creative, motivated and engaged staff to support them in accomplishing their mission. It is accordingly important for them to encourage their staff to develop life balance and to empower them to becoming more performing, while improving their well-being at work. Interpersonal relationships are more than ever a crucial factor for the success or failure of an organization, but especially for individual fulfilment. Far from being something that is easy to develop, human skills (or soft skills) may be the determining factor that will make a difference in your professional career.

This seminar will allow you to increase your motivation and performance to attain your goals, whether professional or personal. The objectives of the learning session in question are to allow you to become aware of your emotional intelligence at work and your decision-making. Team supervision skills, priority and conflict management and managerial courage are also dealt with.
