Pre-Conference Workshop: Drafting IG Policies for Maximum Engagement (Full Day)
Sunday, October 8 - 9:00am - 5:00pm
To regulate employee behaviour, organizations produce a wide variety of IG Policies. Too often, though, these documents are long and confusing and written in a way that sounds like angry parents yelling at naughty children. Getting compliance under these conditions is an uphill battle.
In this hands-on, practical workshop you will explore the Interplay between IG policies and corporate culture. You will be shown a number of advanced techniques for drafting policies, standards, and procedures all aimed at encouraging buy-in from others and promoting compliance.
This workshop will help equip you with the tools you need to add value to your organization by through a set of policies that meet its legal and regulatory requirements while helping to foster a culture of collaboration and respect.
