Creating a great place to work seems straightforward: make employees happy.

Somehow, it doesn't come so easily for most organizations. Many can't figure out the right ingredients for job satisfaction, leading to higher turnover and unrealized productivity potential. In other cases, the idea seems expensive and difficult to directly connect to bottom-line results.

So, how to make employees your best ally & keep them happy??

Let employees know what is going on

idea posted by Jyoti Kapoor HR Manager, Cybage Software

Let employees know what is going on. A lack of communication communicates to employees that they are not important. Companies get lazy about communication and forget its importance, especially in times of change.

Announce when people come and go. Communicate frequently during crises, such as layoffs. Employees even like to know when the answer is "we don't know."

Absoluetly...let employees know what is going on... in their organisation...hidden agendas are damaging and would create confusion among workers .have clear chain of command line....communicate well with employees they deserve to know your goal ...this will make them feel helpful and accomplished.

Yes jyothi, u r right. No Shock & No Surprises. Communicate Regularly & periodically the changes,policies & progress of the company to the employees to avoid rumors & suspicion which leads to false propaganda.

In India business is conducted for making money primarily, feedback mechanism exist in very few organization, if you talk about counselling and all the, Ambanie’s, agarwala's will run away, TATA’s may say go get admitted in my rehabilitation centre if they have one.

I have watched the movie Sholay, you know what Gabbar told to Kalyia his team member “AAB Goli Kha”, this is what came to my mind after reading your prescription!!! Mr. Kaliya this is INDIYA.

Avoid such situation

idea posted by Ravindra Sharma Managing Consultant, CHEF-India

The very reason for employee annoyance could not be without reason if a culture of participation and good management is in place. It never can happen all of a sudden as it is not mood swings that have a place in organised setups. And if their are such build ups reasons could be only in lack of good administration or lack of contact.

Reason is important, so are preventive and timely corrective steps.

Friends,

Communication, quality and timely response, having SOP's are all part of the Good practices that form good management so is analysis and counselling. It is avoidance and not repair that should be in forefront.

Create normalized Standard Operating Procedures (SOP)

idea posted by Joydeep Dasgupta Business Development, New Horizon

 

As new employees join acclimatise them to work flow and process, observe that they understand and adhere to process, escalation procedures. Business in itself is dynamic, major dynamics are created, handled by top management, whatever changes need to be incorporated is designed and crafted by the senior management team, the middle management gets them executed, and to do this they may need hands or team. Proper communication and work flow distribution, necessary structures like pen, comp, phone etc. should be in place. External interference like poaching, bad mouthing to be nipped at the bud. People join an organization to make their livelihood, to build a career an association to make money, status, contributing to self, family, society etc.

RECOGNITION

idea posted by s.baalu Consultant, XYZ LTD

Human mind always longs for appreciation.That is why it is said anyone should be praised in front of others to make him happy and it acts as a very big motivation to him.On the contrary when some one is depreciated for his mistake,especially in front of others, he feels let down and discouraged.It is important every one is recognised and every one is made to feel he is important.More than the monetary benefits,many people consider appreciation important.Of course no one is going to be content with oral or written appreciation alone.Assured or reasonable monetary rewards,as per industry norms,career growth opportunities,other facilities,required assistance etc will keep most of the employees happy.
