Canada wide, organizations are discovering that employee productivity and retention can be significantly impacted and improved by the so called “little things” that contribute to a great workplace culture. Organizations strive to achieve a high performance, forward thinking, motivational work environment where needs are fulfilled and appreciation is shown. The word that starts to describe this kind of work culture is TRUST.
As part of our 5 city tour this seminar will provide you with the tools you need to create an empowering workplace, the impact of trust – or lack thereof – on an organization’s people and success. In addition you will come to understand what great managers know when it comes to employee development.
Bruce Lee is President of Encore Seven Inc., an international training company. As a speaker, facilitator and productivity coach Bruce’s passion is working with individuals and organizations. He will offer real solutions to your current challenges through high-value “what to do” content-rich information, an engaging style and real life situations audiences can relate to.

What is an Employee and Family Assistance Program?
The Employee & Family Assistance Program (EFAP) at Family Service Regina provides confidential and professional counselling and workshops to employees and their families who are experiencing personal problems that may affect job performance.
Through our provincial and national network of professional counsellors, we provide EFAP services on a fee-for-service or contractual basis to a number of organizations across Saskatchewan and Canada. Additional information regarding our Canada-wide services is available at www.familyserviceseap.com.
Why Have an Employee & Family Assistance Program?
People face a variety of problems in their daily lives. Individual problems such as emotional distress, financial difficulties, relationship breakdown, child/parenting problems, and addictions can arise in response to the demands and stress of modern living.
Sometimes these problems grow beyond our capacity to cope and when that happens, the resulting anxiety can drain an individual of his or her energy and effectiveness.
An EFAP can help:
-
Reduce Absenteeism
-
Improve Job Performance
-
Increase Staff Morale
-
Decrease Benefit Claims
-
Decrease Staff Turnover
Progressive organizations across North America have recognized that it is in their best interest to incorporate an EFAP as part of a comprehensive employee benefit package. It's good business because it's cost effective.
More importantly, an EFAP gives employers an alternative to ignoring a troubled employee or taking disciplinary action and perhaps losing a valuable employee.
What Kind of EFAP Will You Need?
We recognize that your organization is unique. We will assess your organization's particular needs to ensure you receive an EFAP that is exactly what you require.
How Do I Make an Appointment?
Once a contract is established an employee may access the program by contacting an Employee & Family Assistance Program Counsellor at Family Service Regina. A counsellor will then respond to an inquiry, usually the same day and appropriate sessions will be scheduled. These appointments can take place during the day, evening, or weekend.
*Remember that confidential assistance is available on a 24-hour, 7 days a week basis for a broad range of personal and work-related concerns, for employees and eligible family members.*
