Ownership Culture Planning: Employee Retreat Design
Wiley|Wilson engaged Praxis Consulting Group to assist with developing its ownership culture. Several possibilities were discussed including a senior team ownership culture planning retreat, ESOP committee engagement or a large group employee-owner retreat. Because Wiley|Wilson believed that it was important to ask all employees for input on how to define and build an ownership culture, they agreed to engage Praxis to design and facilitate a two-day employee-owner retreat. The retreat design involved employees learning more about each other across jobs and locations and large and small group discussions that engaged employees in thinking about desired ownership behaviors at Wiley|Wilson and how the company can support them.
