We should all be
rewarded and recognise for having the intellect and dedication to produce good
result. In the frighteningly real world,
there are many instances where we are just given more and more work with little
or no added compensation; simply because we are efficient. Therefore the logical thinking ‘to work less
efficiently’. This reality will lead to
people not even trying to go the extra mile in their work in case it creates too
big a wave with the management or risk getting demoted for rocking the boat. Bare in mind that demoted does not only mean
demoted in rank, it can include responsibilities and authorities.
People, than, may
seemed to be lazy because, literally and figuratively, it does not pay to be
hardworking. The many leave the project
or even the organization because their creativity may be hampered by the work
culture to perform their best. As the
organization grows, the number of employees increases. This means that the responsibility for livelihood,
happiness and health of the people also grow bigger. Organization should always be trying to create
win-win situations for the company and its employees. Many organizations do not understand that it
is not just about the money.
The company’s
culture is also an important criteria. In
the long term, that’s what employees seek. It is important for the ‘people at the top’ to
develop a culture that is supportive and not competitive while trying to
increase performance and productivity.
We try so hard to
create loyalty among customers that we almost always forget to cultivate it
among our own employees. Create a
culture where people are happy as well as productive, then sit back and watch
the money roll in.
