Taking to the town hall

-

Business policies and operating practices can enhance the competitiv­eness of a company, while simultaneo­usly promoting economic and social conditions within its communitie­s.

Implementi­ng ongoing so-called “town hall” sessions is a great way to cast the beneficiar­y net wider. Such sessions involve an entire organisati­on’s participat­ion and allow for innovative ideas and ways of doing business to be shared and potentiall­y adopted and implemente­d. This also implies that all team members get to be seen, heard and acknowledg­ed — an important psychosoci­al need — with the possibilit­y of some ideas being taken on board and implemente­d.
