National Chicks Human Resources for KZN and Gauteng, Wendy Swanepoel, along with ODI’s Facilitator, Mbali Tshabalala, have embarked on an exciting programme to empower their Foremen and Farm Managers, called “Leadership – from GOOD to GREAT”.
The programme has been put in place in order to support the Foremen and Managers who are expected to lead by example. The programme focusses on:
- Goal alignment and helping one another in their teams.
- The importance and understanding of ethics in the workplace.
- Leadership, the role of team values, and how this contributes to a respectful workplace.
- Creating an understanding of the impact of conflict and how to manage it.
- Improving communication in the workplace between all levels.
- Better feedback skills at all levels for continuous improvement.
The programme also supports their continuous improvement drive by incorporating some fundamental elements of the 20 Keys, such as Key 2, where well-functioning mini-businesses are critical for communication, achieving goals, and making improvements.
National Chicks aims to create a positive, friendly work atmosphere where everyone feels respected and valued.
Each group will have five-day sessions, and after each session, the delegates will reflect on their learning and share their experiences.
