Learning Leader: Learning is Power

CAN YOU RELATE?

You’re on a Human and Organizational Performance journey, but not getting the results you want. Safety events continue and employees are silent, disengaged or leaving. Your frustration is real and justified.

Current strategies aren’t working. You need a major shift but you’re not sure what it is.

What happens if
you do nothing?

If you don’t figure how to heal your employee experience you’ll remain stuck, experiencing the same unsatisfactory or even harmful outcomes.

MEET YOUR GUIDE

Laurin Mooney, BSN MS,

Speaking IN® was developed by Laurin Mooney, a nurse seeking a remedy for the tragedy of patient harm.

This motivated her to innovate a new strategy called speaking IN® that aligns our thinking and actions with how the modern workplace and people actually function. The goal of speaking IN to to re-orient to our purpose, value people, and create an environment where everybody knows it’s always safe, worthwhile, and even necessary to share their questions, concerns and ideas.

Studying modern safety science and complexity theory convinced her safety and reliability are inextricably related to a healthy employee experience. It became apparent the “speak up” strategy provides a weak, and flawed foundation for safety, employee experience, and operational excellence.
