Ensuring Sustainability and Growth by Placing People at the Centre of the Triangulation of Policy, Process & Practice
Too often organisations’ policies don’t genuinely relate to their day to day practice. They simply reflect what is formally required and they are only reviewed when it is formally necessary to do so. This results in there being no link between what is written in the policies and what is actually happening in the workplace on a day to day basis. Even though employees may read policies during their induction these policies are rarely seen as ‘work instructions’ or referred to again during day to day practice.
Policies need to be living, working documents. Processes are the essential vein between policies and practice, ensuring that the key components referred to in the policies are evident in practice.
Processes need to be a clear and accessible outline of what’s meant to be done, how it’s meant to be done, when it’s meant to be done, where it’s meant to be done, who is responsible and who needs to be involved, and ultimately, why it is being done.
This programme will provide a clear understanding of the independent yet interdependent nature of Policy, Processes, and, Practice. Focusing on the importance of putting people at the centre of this triangulation.
