Take care of your employees and they’ll care of your Company
Getting real commitment from employees can be hard
work, sometimes it may seem impossible. It takes time, effort, energy
and genuine commitment from the top to want to make it happen. I have so
often said it, and I say it again, it’s the people at the top that
must set the good examples for others to follow.
Here is an idea of how you might create a
commitment strategy:
COMMUNICATE
In terms appropriate to the workforce
TRAIN
Management training to improve quality of management
For skills required now & in future e.g. multi-skilling
EDUCATE
Increase knowledge
Encourage knowledge sharing
MANAGE REWARDS & BENEFITS
Link to achieving objectives and upholding corporate values
DEVELOP OWNERSHIP & HIGH STANDARDS
MANAGE PERFORMANCE
Link to corporate objectives & values
Define role of every individual
DEVELOP SENSE OF EXCITEMENT IN THE JOB
Involve & delegate effectively
