A Conversation of Understanding – Elevating Employee Appreciation Across SIU
Campuses
SIU recognizes that it is vital to demonstrate care and
appreciation for employees’ earnest and steady efforts. Please join us as
panelists provide insights on how recognizing excellent employee performance
strengthens relationships, boosts workplace morale, and improves organizational
productivity.
This COU will address findings from the 2022 Viewfinder Campus
Climate Survey that revealed employees do not feel recognized and appreciated
for their active and sustained engagement. SIU strives to create a culture of
flourishing for all team members.
Students, alumni, faculty, staff and community members from across
the SIU System are invited to join a live virtual discussion focusing on
critical issues regarding equity and justice in our country and what we can and
must do to address those issues within the SIU System and beyond. The event will
feature an SIU community panel sharing findings and solutions based on the 2022
Viewfinder Campus Climate Survey. A Q&A session will follow where audience
participants can use the YouTube comment section or submit questions before or
during the event by emailing doris.williams@siu.edu.
Conversations of Understanding have become a fixture across
the SIU System and on our individual campuses. They are a series of exchanges
where students, alumni, faculty, staff and the broader SIU communities can
share their experiences and thoughts on a variety of themes related to
antiracism, diversity, equity and inclusion. We want to be a model for others
in higher education and be recognized as a leader in our region and beyond for
our work in fostering understanding of relevant contemporary issues.
