How could knowing what employees want benefit a business?
How could this save money for a business?

Have you ever wondered what makes a good company great? It's the people. Committed, productive employees are key to organizational success and a healthy bottom line. The challenge, then, is retaining and developing satisfied, committed employees. The solution is the Work Expectations Profile. This engaging, self-directed learning instrument helps your employees understand and manage their work expectations. Research has shown that people who have clearly defined, well-communicated expectations have better attitudes and enjoy greater job satisfaction than people whose expectations go unspoken or unrealized. And companies that employ satisfied, successful people reap the rewards of increased productivity and reduced turnover.

The Work Expectations Profile Individual Report makes it even easier for managers and employees to dialogue about their work expectations. The Gap Analysis provides participants with an at-a-glance look at how important each Work Expectation category is to them and to what degree each is being met. This helps them quickly pinpoint which Work Expectations categories need the most attention.

In a typical employment situation, certain expectations, such as salary, hours, and job duties are clearly understood by both employer and employee. Other expectations, however, are so intimately linked to an individual's concept of work that they often go unspoken or unacknowledged. The Work Expectations Profile helps people explore 10 work expectations that affect today's employment relationships:

• Structure
• Diversity
• Recognition
• Autonomy
• Environment
• Expression
• Teamwork
• Stability
• Balance
• Career Growth

The Work Expectations Profile is designed to help individuals uncover and explore their expectations in a variety of employment situations:

• Working on a team
• Transitioning to a new position or experiencing organizational restructuring
• Creating meaningful performance reviews
• Making the most of daily routines

Organizations use the Work Expectations Profile to help employees:

• Explore key work expectations
• Discover which expectations are most important to them
