employee buy-in

German translation: Unterstützung / Engagement / Akzeptanz

Bus/Financial - Human Resources
English term or phrase: employee buy-in
Es geht um eine Agentur, die die Mitarbeiter eines Unternehmens für die später zu realisierende Werbekampagne sensibilisieren möchte.

The campaign was launched internally to ensure employee understanding and buy-in. They needed to be well briefed in order to be “on message” when the campaign was launched externally. From the receptionist to the CEO, straightforward thinking needed to be embraced and acted upon.

"Employee buy-in" findet man zuhauf im Web. Ich bin mir aber gar nicht sicher, ob hier wirklich "buy-in" im Sinne von "Übernahme" gemeint ist. Meines Erachtens zielt der Begriff eher in Richtung "Akzeptanz", möchte meine Auffassung aber gerne bestätigt (oder korrigiert) haben.

Explanation:
Liegt irgendwo in der Mitte :-)

In management and decision making, buy-in (as a verb or noun) signifies the commitment of interested or affected parties to a decision (often called stakeholders) to 'buy in' to the decision, that is, to agree to give it support, often by having been involved in its formulation. It is common to speak of "obtaining buy-in" to mean, the obtaining of commitment by involved parties to a proposal, plan or strategy as an integral part of its development.
