Engagement
Engaged employees that are aligned to a company’s mission, vision and values create a highly motivated and committed workforce; one that works hard for the benefit of the whole organisation in good times and in bad.
Many things can stand in the way of engagement; from market uncertainty and major change (downsizing, industrial action, mergers, change of management, etc) to lack of capability and poor communications channels.
At Wescott Williams we apply a holistic approach to enabling and embedding engagement. We don’t just look at creating leadership vision and building management capability. Equally important is how we work alongside clients to create a culture where they can engage each and every strata of their organisation, opening up two way communication channels that make all the difference between getting someone on side wholeheartedly or half-heartedly, permanently or temporarily.
Our team combines organisational development, employee engagement and classic communications specialists who work together to create thoroughly evaluated, strategic and measurable programmes designed to improve organisational performance through boosting engagement.

Case study
Wescott Williams provided coaching to a new team at Nationwide Building Society set up to negotiate terms with a major supplier in line with stringent new regulations laid down by the Financial Services Authority (FSA).
We coached Jo Hind, a talented AOL sales manager, to improve her performance at work, which led to renewed enthusiasm for her role, promotion and an enhanced career path. AOL is the world's leading and best known interactive services provider.
We developed a sales programme to improve membership recruitment that resulted in sustained and substantial increases in strike rates (visitors to English Heritage sites being converted into members), with membership now accounting for more than £18 million (2010/11 year to date) as opposed to just over £12 million in 2005/06 when Wescott Williams first started working with this client.
