Collaborative Implementation

Engaging all employees in the improvement of workforce integration:

• drives a culture that values input from employees
• creates awareness of what others across the organization are focused on and how

these areas relate and/or are distinct

• highlights areas of consensus or difference in perspectives
• helps to build shared priorities (improving the chance of “buy-in” by not imposing a

directive)

• illustrates the processes—and challenges—of workforce integration as they occur.

As relevant dynamics manifest, new insight can direct action
