Welcome to Know Better Place

 

Know Better Place brings together several initiatives going on at the Health Center under one “umbrella” program. The goal is to increase communication and collaboration between and within departments and committees, to decrease duplication of initiatives, and to better align our efforts that result in a great workplace. Such a workplace attracts and keeps talented employees. This program was developed as a result of the feedback from the 2005 Culture and Diversity survey.

Our approach includes:

 

Know Better Place capitalizes on our strengths, of which there are many, and offers solutions to our areas for improvement. We need to continue to hear from all of our employees as we cannot change without the involvement, support and engagement of each one of us.

We must become the change we want to see.

The Health Center is a great workplace and this initiative will move us toward being even greater. We’ll have recognition at all levels, effective organizational communication, engaged employees, and dynamic leaders.
