How can you make a difference?
Background:
The Annual Staff Retreat for 2023 was postponed to First Quarter 2024 due to the heavy workload in the Country Office associated with year-end closure activities and the development of the CPD for 2025 – 2030. During the meeting of 17 January 2024, the CMT approved that the Annual Retreat be held from 5th – 7th March 2024. Staff selected Bo as the venue for the retreat in a survey held in 2023.
This ToR is to request the hiring of a Facilitator to guide and conduct the staff retreat.
Purpose and Objectives:
The purpose of the staff retreat is threefold: (1) to refresh and re-energize staff around the UNICEF core values (CRITAS) and the mandate to deliver results for children through fun, teambuilding activities; (2) to review the results of the 2023 Pulse Survey and Action Plans, and to reflect on the actions taken, including the recommendations from the staff retreat 2022; (3) to involve staff in the change management process of the new CPD.
The objectives of the retreat are to strengthen cohesion of the team through discussions on the findings of the 2022 Global Staff Survey report; to inspire renewed commitment to a shared vision for the CPD 2025-2030; and to identify ways to continually improve staff well-being and work-life balance in a respectful workplace culture.
Methodology and Technical Approach:
The Facilitator is a third party, neutral person to guide objective analysis and internal reflection. He/she will design and roll out team building activities in consultation with the Staff Association and moderate the feedback sessions, particularly for the more difficult conversations that foster better team cohesion.
Specific Tasks:
Management, Organization and Timeframe: The Staff Retreat will be held from 5-7 March 2024 in Bo. It is organized by the Country Office Staff Association in consultation with Senior Management of UNICEF Sierra Leone. Please see attached Concept Note on the Staff Retreat for full details on agenda, budget, etc.
