My research this past week has led me to a number of interesting and relevant pieces which I would like to share with you!
The most interesting piece is entitled "16 Ways to Keep Your Best Employees -- Without Breaking the Bank." Author is: Joanne G. Sujansky, PhD, CSP, KEYGroup, and the source document can be viewed at -http://www.itworld.com/Career/nlscareers071008/index.html.
Today, and on each of the next three days, I shall POST four of the sixteen "ways" provided. Please peruse each of Dr. Sujansky's "seeds," and be sure to use our "comments" box to share your ideas, thoughts or suggestions. So, here we go:
Ways To Keep Your Best Employees Without Breakin The Bank!
Seed #1: Don't misrepresent your culture. Engaging your employees starts with the first time you interview them.
Seed #2: Learn the rules of engagement. Bored employees are neither happy nor productive.
Seed #3: Cross-pollinate your culture by embracing diversity. It takes a lot of different influences—diversity in race, ethnicity, gender, age, sexual preference, lifestyle, geographic origin, education, personality, values, experience,
socio-economic background and so forth—to make your pasture the greenest.
Seed #4: Be a good corporate citizen. Once upon a time, the corporate heads of many organizations had one concern: "How much money can we make and how fast can we make it?" Well, money still matters, of course. But today's employers are finding that they have to care about more than just profits if they want to keep
their employees happy.
Please think about these suggestions, and we invite you to return for four more tomorrow. Thank you!
