Notas del editor
(After a lengthy or flattering introduction) After that introduction, I just can't wait to hear what I'm going to say.
After such a warm, generous introduction, I can only say thank you and I think you must have gotten the wrong guy.
(When addressing a small crowd or low attendance) This must be a wealthy crowd. Each of you bought two or three seats!
I won't speak for long on account of my throat. (clears throat) At my last engagement I talked too long, and someone threatened to cut it.
I'll try not to talk too long. They say its best to leave your audience before your audience leaves you.
I hope my speech will keep you on the edge of your seats. Hopefully that will be because you're interested, not because you're trying to get up the nerve to leave.
I don't have a solution, but I do admire the problem.
Take my advice — I'm not using it.
You have the capacity to learn from your mistakes, and you will learn a lot today.
Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?
Treat each day as your last; one day you will be right.
Starting point: how big a chunk of the total pie is taken up by our human capital AND what return are we getting from that capital?
As you can see here, avg HR expenditure for employee is on the rise.
In fact, people costs represent nearly 60% of GDP in the United States.
If organisations scrutinize return on other investments, why not do the same for their human capital?
“The deepest human need is the need to be appreciated”
William James, American philosopher and psychologist (1842 –1910)
People will improve the things they’re recognized for so they can earn even more recognition.
Leverage the data you’ve been collecting
Measure the ROI on your various workforce practices
Differentiate between high-yield tactics . . . and marginal investments
Match human capital strategy to your business model
Success in the New Work Environment requires Enterprise Contributors.
And most employees are willing to perform collaboratively as Enterprise Contributors, meaning investing in incentives or other means of motivation is a wasted effort.
So why do so few employees qualify as Enterprise Contributors? Three in four say the organisation needs to make it easier for them to meet this new performance expectation.
Four paradoxes are at play:
Co-workers are asked to help each other, but they also compete for raises and promotions.
Employees need autonomy, but they also require direction in prioritizing their activities.
While collaboration tools can improve quality, they can slow execution.
Employees value contributing, but being rewarded for it actually reduces their motivation.
Simplifying the workplace is not an option; complex work environments are a reality. The best companies don't simplify this environment, but enable employees to navigate it and perform as Enterprise Contributors. Doing so helps them realize 11% higher YoY profit growth and 5% higher YoY revenue growth.
The flows can be segmented by
business unit,
job family,
demographics,
and . . .
The number of employees for 2014 are the “expected numbers” given the current workforce and existing hiring, promotion, retention and transfer practices.
Compensation is still important, but these days employees are looking for more.
Incentives help engage employees and organisations.
With higher than average engaged employees, companies saw 27% higher profits.
Ideas to recognize employees without spending a penny!
• Send a personal note that specifies exactly what the employee did
• Say a sincere “thank you”
• Recognize a job well done in a meeting or applaud
• Send a shout-out around in your company’s private social site
• Mention their success story in a speech or presentation or even newsletter
• Give a long lunch or extra break or “free pass” day
• Arrange for higher manager to stop by and say thanks
• Offer to swap a task with them
• Flex hours or let them work from home
• Create a “Wall of Fame” or special award where you recognize them
Always remember you're unique, just like everyone else.
Confession is good for the soul, but bad for your career.
Every organisation is perfectly designed to get the results they are getting.
Seen it all, done it all, can't remember most of it.
A clear conscience is usually the sign of a bad memory. My conscience is clean — I have never used it.
To steal ideas from one person is plagiarism; to steal from many is research.
When everything's coming your way, you're in the wrong lane and going the wrong way.
If at first you don't succeed, redefine success.
If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you tried.
I hope you enjoyed my speech and if you did not, I hope you had a good nap.
