Rewarding Great People - Issue 1

WENDY BATES INTRODUCTION

Here at FM Conway, a great work-life experience really matters to us; it is important that every voice is heard and that you feel valued. Our last employee engagement survey invited you to ‘Have Your Say’ and you highlighted three particular areas for us to focus on; these were Feedback and Recognition, Learning and Development, and Communication and Collaboration, which have been key projects for us over the past 18 months As a result, we have delivered a significant number of projects as part of our continuous improvement programme, such as the launch of our exciting new benefits platform which has already provided significant discounts, savings and cashback for every day purchases. We also now ensure that appraisals are available to everyone so each has a two-way dialogue with their manager to discuss their performance and development, and we are very proud of our Great Leaders programme that aims to develop future leaders and enhance our culture. Supporting all of these projects and initiatives is our increased frequency of communication so that all our people are aware of important updates about what is happening in our business. We hope that through this publication you enjoy learning about some of your colleagues, and some of the initiatives we have already delivered, or have coming up but, we always welcome new suggestions and feedback so we can continue to develop to meet your needs. We are very much looking forward to the next employee engagement, planned for November 2021 when you get another opportunity to ‘Have Your Say’ and make a positive difference to the working experience as part of the family.
