About Novacroft
What is it like to work for Novacroft
Leadership
Their senior team have revised their communications strategy over the last 12 months and this has had a significant impact on employee engagement. Firstly they have reformatted the way they run team meetings. These do not operate on status bases principles but are a a lively and interactive session between all team members. Team meetings take place each month and each senior team member gives an operational update on their area of the business. Meetings are held at each of their sites and at different times of the day to enable maximum attendance. Meetings have also been recorded and made available on television screens in our breakout rooms and on the intranet for team members who have not been able to attend sessions. The senior team also introduced daily operational updates for the business throughout their peak period. These business updates have been made available via email and on the intranet and have opened up communication channels across the business.
