Engage: creating partnership across boundaries
FAQ & Prices
Below is a list of commonly asked questions about this Leadership Development Programme. If your question does not appear below you can always contact us.
How long is the workshop?
Engage is a two day workshop. It is typically held over consecutive days. However, some clients have used solely the simulation component in order to fit it into one day.
How many people can attend?
You can immerse up to 50 participants in the Engage experience.
Who should attend?
Absolutely anyone in your organisation, team or department. The best results are achieved when people from all levels (senior management, line managers, front line staff and even customers) attend, creating a “microcosm” of your real organisation.
Where is it conducted?
Engage is conducted at a venue of your choice. However, it does require a fair amount of space and a break out room. We recommend you consult us before booking a venue.
Is this an engagement workshop or Leadership Development workshop?
It’s both! Engage tackles employee engagement by getting your participants to take a leadership stand for creating better relationships in your organisation and better relationships lead to an increase in engagement.
Isn’t this just a role play?
No, it’s a real business simulation. While the simulation is fictitious, your participants are all immersed in the experience and are “born” into their roles as tops, middles, bottoms, and customer. Their responses and reactions will be real. They are not acting!
Is this workshop a new concept?
No. The concept was founded by Barry Oshry of Power and Systems in the U.S.A. It is now used by organisations throughout the world as a way of tackling employee disengagement and developing leaders at all levels. In the Asia Pacific however it is a relatively new workshop with The Human Enterprise being the first company to offer it.

Tim Ebbeck, President and Managing Director, SAP Australia New Zealand
I really think that the program
is outstanding. The sales
presentation that leads
you to the program doesn’t
convey just how powerful the
program really is. The program
exceeded everybody’s expectations based on
what we thought would happen.
Merylee Crockett, HR Director, Alleasing Finance Australia Ltd
Paul - as usual you made us
all think. We really value The
Human Enterprise’s input and
believe we are all improved
by the experience both
corporately and personally.
Garry Gerstle, Managing Director, Man Investments
It’s easy for people to loose
sight of the bigger picture
and how they can relate
to each other, the business
and customers in a more
empowered, positive fashion.
We need to find a way to break down the
boundaries and create a more interdependent
environment... I now see people making a
conscious choice of how they react. It (the
workshop) has created a more positive and
empowered environment.
Judy Quirk, IT Director, Unilever Australasia
Typically our staff can be
a bit apprehensive, even
cynical prior to these sorts
of sessions. As the workshop
progressed, this attitude was
quickly replaced with cautious
participation and soon after that, everyone
became fully engaged in exploring the issues
raised.
Matthew Wilson, Human Resources Manager, Australian Jockey Club
The Human Enterprise has
exceeded our expectations.
We had two excellently
facilitated days where we
learnt how better to understand
each others pressures and
challenges, no matter what level in the overall
department. Now, back at work, everyone
in our departments are starting to introduce
what we have learnt. We have a new common
vocabulary. There is a renewed sense of
potential within the overall team and a feeling
of greater optimism.
Frederique Hull, Maketing Director, Household, Reckitt Benckiser
Paul led the workshop with
passion. He communicates
extremely well, got the
engagement needed and
presented an ongoing
framework to provide the
potential for lasting benefit rather than just
a short lived boost. Several months down
the track people are collaborating more,
using techniques and language making the
investment we made worthwhile.
John Drabble, CEO, Alleasing Finance
