How We Optimize Human Capital in Education

Activate Human Capital Group offers a suite of world-class tools and user-friendly systems designed to enhance the engagement, retention, and overall performance of healthcare organizations. Here’s how we can make a difference:

Predictive Index

This tool helps in understanding the behavioral traits and cognitive abilities of your most successful employees, ensuring you’ve got the right people in the right roles. This tool offers opportunities to support talent acquisition, interviewing, onboarding, and talent-driven career path development more inclusively and effectively. In education, where engagement and empathy are key, this can lead to improved student outcomes and job satisfaction.

Employee Engagement Programs

Driving Employee Engagement in Education is a complex challenge. Timing is a critical element based on the school calendar, many employees do not regularly access email, and union buy-in is often an important ingredient. We’ve got you covered. Our proven process will help staff members feel heard, improve relationships between locations and classifications, and ultimately improve student success. Allow us to support and guide you as we boost staff morale and create a positive, productive work environment with Activate's engagement initiatives, while utilizing precise analytics for data-driven strategies to enhance employee satisfaction and performance.

Leadership Training

A typical “span of control” ratio in most businesses worldwide caps out around 10:1 (10 employees reporting to one manager). Not so in education settings where we frequently see span of control ratios that exceed 40:1. That’s a whole different challenge for a leader to support and puts exponentially higher demands on the time they do spend with each direct report. At Activate, we help these managers take the best and most effective business strategies and modify them to work in education settings.

Workshops & Trainings

Provide your staff with tailored workshops and training sessions specific to educational facilities, fostering professional growth, equipping educators with innovative teaching strategies for improved academic outcomes, and building a supportive community that enhances collaboration and positively impacts the institution’s culture.

Strengths Discovery

A Strengths-building approach is more than 8x as effective as a weakness-fixing approach. It’s also a lot more validating for your employees. Allow us to support you as we define and align the talents of your employees, one team/location/group at a time. The intent is summed up beautifully by Donald O. Clifton, the father of Strengths Development: “People don’t change that much. Don’t waste time trying to put in what was left out. Try to draw out what was left in. That’s hard enough.”

Data-Driven Consulting

Leverage Activate’s expert consulting services for a data-driven approach to define and prioritize clear goals and effective strategies aimed at improved retention, morale, and student success. Ensure efficient and effective resource allocation for maximum impact on student learning and institutional growth, and stay ahead of industry trends to keep your educational facility competitive and continually offering top-tier educational opportunities.
