The Office of Great Workplace Development

The Office of Great Workplace Development (OGWD) is sponsored by: The Governor’s Office, The Office of State Employer and The Department of Civil Service.

In a statement to State of Michigan employees,

"There is great nobility and great pride to be found in being a public servant. It is the highest calling. Citizens truly care about the work that we do, and I care about you and I care about the job that you do. We are a team."

-Jennifer Granholm, Governor

It is the role of OGWD to help state government achieve its goal of making Michigan a Great Place to do Great Work; focusing state employees on our shared values which provide the social principles to guide us through today’s change issues.

Empirical research and observation repeatedly confirm that great workplaces are ones where:

  • There is an Energizing Mission & Vision
  • Employees are Empowered
  • There is Leadership Throughout
  • Processes are Effective and Efficient
  • Values are the Cornerstone of Behavior and Decision Making
