What Sets All People Thriving’s Organizing With Integrity Training Apart?


Ingredients for Success!

We recognize the key ingredients for success include:

  • Institutional Integrity; 
  • Leadership & Management; 
  • Diversity, Accessibility & Inclusion; and
  • Human-Centered Workplace Policies. 

When it comes to Institutional Integrity, we know that businesses and organizations achieve success when they know about, understand, and have all the right pieces in place! With Organizing With Integrity, we help entrepreneurs, businesses and organizations achieve institutional integrity by putting these pieces together and presenting them in their Operations Manual/Business Plan and Dash-Based Website – two of the key and core components necessary for success and effective leadership and management. 

 

Integrity Check

We recognize that nearly all problems in businesses and organizations are related to missing or misaligned organization components. Our Integrity Check can be used to help organizations get started – or get back on – the right track! Each module contains an Integrity Check and Knowledge Check In, or you can view it here to complete an organization self-assessment before getting started

 

Mission and Vision Focused

As a program of All People Thriving, Organizing With Integrity’s mission is to empower entrepreneurs, businesses and organizations to define and reach their own unique highest and fullest potential – and to create working environments where all people involved are empowered, happy, successful and thriving, too! Ultimately, we envision a world where people go to work or become a part of businesses and organizations  – not because they have to – but because they want to!

 

Key Learning Objectives & Outcomes


Businesses and organizations with all of their pieces in place and operating in complete alignment are able to achieve integrity – Businesses and organizations with integrity are able to thrive! Thriving organizations tend to have higher success in meeting their mission, greater customer and employee satisfaction, and low rates of turnover. Conversely, organizations with missing or misaligned pieces tend to experience a great deal of inner conflict, high turnover rates, and eventually can even close down. Organizing with Integrity empowers organization leaders, team members, customers and other stakeholders with tools and information to build happy, healthy organizations where all people thrive! Participants can expect to be able to:

  • Define key components of businesses, nonprofits, agencies and organizations; 
  • Understand and identify where challenges exist and how to correct them by ensuring all of the right pieces are in place and in alignment; 
  • Become an integral part of creating happy, healthy thriving businesses and organizations that meet their missions and encourage all people to thrive; and
