Employee Engagement for Early Childhood Leaders

This workshop aims to equip Early Childhood Leaders, especially Centre Leaders with important knowledge and skill-sets pertaining to developing and driving employee engagement and communication in their preschool.  

These include (1) having a well-research and practice-based mental framework on effective employee engagement; (2) knowing how to develop employee engagement initiatives in a structured manner using relevant tools and templates; and (3) common employee engagement initiatives for improvement.  

As a result, the Early Childhood Leader will feel confident and be able to carry out review of the current state of employee engagement within their preschool and develop appropriate initiatives to better engage and retain their employees.

Upon completion of the course, participants will be able to:

• Deploy an employee engagement survey for determining the existing needs of the centre
• Develop appropriate and effective employee engagement initiatives for the centre based on data-driven findings
• Gain best-practice insights on dealing with common challenging employee engagement scenarios in Early Childhood landscape
• Communicate effectively to employees when rolling out centre-level initiatives
