To have the most productive employees, you must build a partnership
To have the most productive employees, you must build a partnership. As in any partnership, each side needs to contribute specific things to ensure the success of the operation
And although the efforts are equally valuable yours must come first, because it’s your contribution, as their manager/leader, that enables your partners’ to contribute their share.
Although what you need to do can be summed up in a few words, the effort required to actually do it never ends.
What you do—you must respect them all and treat them fairly, help them grow to reach their true potential and then not limit their upward mobility because it inconveniences you.
What you get—your people will respond by going the extra yard, working the extra hours, becoming, if they aren’t already, real 10 per centers.
Your payoff—your reviews and promotions will reflect the high performance and increased productivity of your group, whether it’s a team, department, company, or something in-between.
Your retribution—if you try to fake this attitude and pay it lip-service only, your people will know, if not instantly then within months. The result will be low productivity, a high rate of attrition, rotten reviews and no promotions.
As always, it’s your choice.Labels: human resource
