Any organization experiencing a crisis with resource constraints can boost morale and performance by appealing to the workers’ sense of purpose and desire to contribute in a meaningful way.
Monetary incentives may not be required and sometimes may act as a disincentive. Any company struggling with depressed morale, fractured communication, an outmoded or broken business model, or unable to fulfill its potential for other internal or external reasons, confronts essentially the same set of problems – how to renew personnel investment in the mission and how to enhance staff’s commitment to the organization’s vision.
One of the most overlooked change motivators is focusing on the positive. Too often, individuals within organizations become focused on limitations and what they can’t do, accomplish, or change.
This thinking limits potential and halts problem-solving and solution planning. But, when you infuse teams with a firm belief and core knowledge of what they can accomplish, they feel empowered and engaged.
In the end, the future of any evolving organization is subject to uncertainty. But by putting your organization on a path to regeneration and allowing your group to put their focus on “what we can do,” not “what we can’t do,” you can reinfuse your company with a renewed sense of mission, purpose, and relevance.
How can we help?
At Moments Count we view Change Management as more than a buzz term. It is future-visioned. It is the hands-on implementation of functional and core change that transforms the effectiveness of the team work required for an enterprise to accept change in the interest of operating more efficiently. Well-managed change increases buy-in and positive will all along the operational chain, from outside vendor to involved personnel all the way to the end-user, customer or client.
Research demonstrates when an enterprise invests in developing its leaders it can expect powerful outcomes and count on a significant competitive advantage in attracting, developing and retaining high quality talent. Developing leaders from within has shown to drive strategy execution, increase successful organizational change navigation, improve system-wide communication, generate self-awareness and attune recognition of impacts on others. Leaders who have the opportunity for enhanced development are more likely to volunteer for future leadership responsibilities, invite cross-boundary ideating, all while showing an openness to diverse perspective collaboration.
We identify, analyze and guide your company to advance your existing workflow optimizing operations to meet customers demand or internal quality measurements. When improvements in processes are enacted the effects extend to both the upstream and downstream flow within the organization. Recognizing, anticipating and preparing for the overall wake created by process improvement creates smoother transitions and positive employee engagement and morale.
In a perfect world, your communication channels work together to reach and engage both employees and customers. In truth, disconnects happen. Moments Count energizes the potential of your organizational communication proactively engaging employees and clients alike.

When employees understand what matters, they realize the relevance of their roles, they feel connected, recognized, valued and mostly importantly they know how to succeed – the obvious result -your company thrives.
Diversity training’s effectiveness is dependent on the specific training methods used. A cookie-cutter approach is not an effective mechanism and in fact, can back-fire and intensify dysfunction within an organization. Multiple factors must be considered: the personality characteristics of those who are to be trained, the overt and covert mechanisms at work in the culture of the organization and the specific outcomes and how they are measured. Moments Count tailors empirically supported exercises and activities to the history of your organization, your company’s goals and your employees’ real world experiences all in service to making your organization more welcoming, inclusive and collaborative. The strength of any organization lies in its ability to embrace the experiences and voices of all its stakeholders.
