Speaking Up: building the reporter experience into Speak Up arrangements
Staff willingness to speak up and bring ideas for innovation or raise concerns of misconduct in the workplace is a key facet of an open ethical culture in any organisation. But how easy is this in practice? Have you ever put yourself in the shoes of a reporter, and viewed it from their perspective?
During this online masterclass participants will be walked through the Speak Up journey from the perspective of the user. Good practice will be explored across the following areas of the Speak Up journey, as identified in the IBE Speak Up Toolkit app – our practical solution for developing an open culture:
- Having a concern
- Speaking to someone
- Making a report
- Once an investigation is underway
- After speaking up.
The masterclass promotes good practice which is established through IBE research, experience and knowledge, as well as allowing space for those on the training to share their own experiences.
Why attend?
This online masterclass, facilitated by the IBE, will equip those interested in supporting those who speak up with new knowledge, tips and tools. All participants will also receive a complimentary copy of the IBE Good Practice Guide: Encouraging a Speak Up Culture. At the end of the course, participants can request a certificate of attendance.
Who should attend?
The intended audience for this training is as follows (although others with an interest in the subject area are also encouraged to participate):
- Managers / senior managers / heads of functions with responsibility for their organisation’s speak up / whistleblowing arrangements.
