Treat your Employees Right !!!

Employees are our greatest asset. Then why do most companies treat employees poorly? Any strategy or business plan relies on motivated and engaged people to make it happen. Disengaged employees can cost companies millions of dollars from lost productivity, damages from employee negligence and negative publicity due to poor customer service.

Many organizations treat their employees as if they are a commodity. They use them until they can get no more out of them, and then cast them aside. This leads to poor morale, lower productivity, and higher turnover. Your employees are your most valuable asset. Don't take them for granted or treat them poorly. They use your internal tools and systems and interact with customers. They are your best brand ambassadors. Loyalty is a two-way street. You can't buy loyalty, but you can certainly foster and nurture it. Employees who have been pushed to the point where they no longer care, will not go the extra mile. They will not take the initiative to solve problems.

Employees spend half of their lives at work. They are not asking for much. Employees want to work in an environment where they are valued. Sometimes it's the little things you do, that counts the most. It's the simple things people remember. The simple gesture, the kind word, the much-needed support. It comes from putting people first. A little respect and empathy goes a long way. If you want to get the best out of your employees - Treat them well!
