The benefits package promotes and encourages wellness and wise medical consumerism. The HR information system is user friendly and serves as the foundation for capturing, maintaining, and reporting on all employee data and metrics. Learning and development programs have real business and personal impact. Staffing processes result in attracting, hiring, and retaining the right talent in short amount of time at the lowest cost per hire. HR business partners add value to all discussions related to strategy, structure, and business issues. Great talent stays with the college and employee satisfaction ratings are high. HR supports change management initiatives and helps to define desired end states. Leaders are promoted from within and are extremely successful in achieving business results. All employees have contribution and capability plans written and reviewed. Employees are inspired by the vision and direction. HR is easy to do business with; processes are smooth and efficient. The college acts as one team and leverages it collaborative processing capabilities. There is significant diversity of talent in all organizations at all levels. 4

5 What is EVP? What is EVP? Why Does it Matter? Defined as the Employee Value Proposition EVP represents the five components that employees value. Each element and aspects of it are more important to some employees than others. EVP aids organizations to determine what employees truly value at their jobs and can enable organizations to develop a unique total package of rewards and recognition. Why does it matter? All five elements have been shown to influence employee engagement, attraction, retention, and motivation. Employee engagement is about connection. Connection has three tenets: rational, emotional and motivational. That is connecting at the head, heart and hand. An engaged employee understands what he or she must do to add value to the college, has a sense of pride, feels connection to the college mission, and is willing to put those thoughts and feelings discretionary effort into action. EVP aids in the relationship between employee attitudes and employee outcomes which ultimately drive organizational effectiveness. EVP can have a significant impact on attainment of key institutional outcomes.
