Support employees to pursue their passion

idea posted by Janaki Ram HR Executive, Lead Consultancy

Organizations should support employees to pursue their passion. It helps them hone their skills and get the right kind of exposure which will help the company by making the employee mentally active and increasing his productivity.

As long as the employees passion is within the vision and mission of the company. It is upto the management to check whether the passion be it upgrading of a skillset is of benefit and be transparent in discussing it if found otherwise, so that the employee has a complete understanding of how his passion will work for or against the company's policy.

You are to the point Janaki. Yes by this way you not only motivate the employees but they feel they are a part of the organisation and deliver to the maximum.

Add your argument:

Comfortable working environment

idea posted by indrojit d chaudhuri Partner/Principal/VP, TalentEquity

Neat, spacious workstations, with  degree of privacy and comfort. Clean, hygienic washrooms and not made to suffer because of everyday issues like electricity, parking and other such instances

Good working atmosphere is a must for any successful organization, but this along is not sufficient it has to be backed by  good package.

If employees provide comfortable working environment Employees would work with involvement and they will alsofeel that they are valued and cared more in the organization.Eventhough the company is good enough in monetary benefits but fails to provide comfortable and working environment  the employee will not stick on to this company.

if organization will create a good and comfortable environment employees may feel happy and they feel our organization facilities are good to work as much as good this will create a good perception in mid of employees

Treat your employee as you would like to be treated by others, Listen, understand, provide options

idea posted by Manoj Mathew Cherian Training Manager, Al Hokair Group

If colleagues feel - My management cares, this is my family, my pay is competitive, I still have room for growth... they will stay with your organization for ever

Yes, we need to support the staff like we support the people in regular life. We have to provide full support to staff in all the aspects and we need to listen to his comments where he is having command  and we have to support him when ever he does good for the organization in point of system or reducing the cost at company level by awarding promotion and etc..

Add your argument:

Equal and fair treatment

idea posted by Akshata MBA/PGDM student, SMU

It is sometimes seen in the offices that some people are favored just because they are bosses "favorites". Everybody should be treated equally and given a chance to show their talent.

This is the most essential point in keeping employees happy. employees who don't experience such things in office will never know but ones experiencing such treatment will definitely feel deprived. 

Add your argument:

NEVER POSSIBLE

idea posted by R N Bhattacharyya Freelancer, Freelancer
Any remuneration/promotion/bonus/exgratia/recognition etc can make a staff happy for a very limited period but long lasting happyness never possible.

I fully agree with Mr.Bhattacharya,if emplyees could be happy and satisfied then there will be no growth.So do anything and it will be less for the emplyee as thier hunger is more than what they are fed with.....this is a bitter truth.

Add your argument:

Aware the employers problems

idea posted by Chetan Vishnu Jamadade Software Engineer, iProgrammer Solutions Pvt. Ltd

Aware the employers problems. Provide facilities well & discussion with everyone about working issues, any personal problems (if possible).

It is quite true that Motivation, empowerment ,compensation is part to keep happy in their working place simultaneously freeness, fair attitude by boss and job security in the organisation is also an important part. 

Add your argument:

Identify immediate need

idea posted by KALIYAMOORTHY Oil & Gas Area Coordinator, Undisclosed

Satisfy the immediate need that one have & from there lead him to the successive area where he is really interested in . It will give positive results. Invest in people with right deeds & channelise their skills for the betterment.

Motivation, empowerment, compensation

idea posted by Jaya Ray Manager, KyaZoonga.com

All three things are important in that order to keep employees happy.

 

Motivation - in many ways, quantitative, qualitative

Empower - with more responsibilities, ownership capabilities

Compensation - as per market and industry standards, so that competition does not poach them
