AGENDA ITEM <br /> <br /> <br />MEMORANDUM <br /> <br />DATE: September 16, 2013 <br /> <br />TO: Honorable Mayor and City Councilmembers <br />Patrick Klaers, City Administrator <br /> <br />FROM: Sue Iverson , Director of Finance and Administrative Services <br /> <br />SUBJECT: Continuation of Respectful Workplace Training Discussion <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />Background <br /> <br />In July we did a follow-up session of the May/June Council-Staff training on sexual harassment <br />and hostile work environment. One result of this session was Council consensus that they would <br />like to continue the work on team building and respectful work place with Sheila Krejci using a <br />this new assessment tool, there would be no cost to us for the profiles. <br /> <br />Council had expressed interest in having a retreat and working on this in a full or half day <br />approach. The results from the profiles of the Leadership Team (Council, City Administrator, <br />and Directors) have shown low scores for all areas of the five behaviors (trust, conflict, <br />commitment, accountability, and results). <br /> <br />Discussion <br /> <br />Given the results of the scores and the desire of the Council to work on this area (as it is listed as <br />one of our goals), we need to have a discussion on how the Council would like to structure this <br />retreat. Originally, Shelia suggested having a couple of sessions two weeks apart, but she did <br />say that she feels that we could see some positive results in a full day retreat. We could do <br />something similar to what we have done in the past where we start out with breakfast, breakout <br />for lunch, and then finish up our work with maybe a small break in the afternoon. <br /> <br />This would be interactive and not lecturing, so there will be a lot of activity to demonstrate the <br />five behaviour areas. It would also facilitate and help if each member could read the book as <br />pre-work so we would not have to spend a lot of time on context, but actually on the work we <br />need to do. The result would be to end up with a collective team action plan and create <br />accountabilities and rules of engagement for success. <br /> <br />12 <br />Page of <br /> <br />
