ACTIVITY NO. 29
Prepare a short report on how an organization of your choice motivates it's
people toperformtheir jobs.
Motivating employees necessitates imagination and knowledge of the
areas in which employee performance exceeds your company's expectations.
Addressing areas for improvement before they become serious problems can also
provide motivation. Both tactics send the message that your human capital is
valuable and that your employer is really interested in helping you succeed.
Observe employee performance throughout an evaluation period rather
than waiting until performance appraisal season to do so. Examine the job
descriptions of employees to see what they actually do. Employees
frequently execute jobs and tasks that aren't explicitly listed in their job
descriptions.
Provide regular feedback to your personnel. Use positive language to
compliment them on a job well done, and give honest, constructive
comments on performance difficulties. Instead of allowing shortcomings to
build to the point where they warrant disciplinary action, addressing
performance difficulties sooner rather than later can result in rapid
improvement.
Make public announcements to thank employees. Recognize employees
whose performance exceeds expectations, for example, at staff meetings.
According to management consultant and professor Frederick W. Herzberg,
who advocated for the use of employee recognition in his two-factor theory
on what employees need for job happiness, employee recognition is a
powerfulincentive.
2. Employees having a track record of routinely exceeding the company's
expectations should be promoted. Herzberg, once again, believed that non-
monetary employee acknowledgment was an effective motivator.
Employees who are promoted to leadership positions have the opportunity
to demonstrate their abilities and develop their capabilities. Employee
motivation can also boost employee retention, lowering the cost of
replacing staff due to attrition.
Employees should be asked to volunteer for roles that will allow them to
demonstrate their expertise. If your company provides formal orientation
for new workers, for example, ask current employees if they'd want to be
presenters at such sessions. Employee participation in company-wide
projects stimulates them by demonstrating that they can handle difficult
work.
Survey employees on a regular basis, usually once a year, to get their
feedback. Employees who understand that their ideas matter are often
happier and more pleased. These, in turn, are completely engaged
personnel who are passionate about their jobs and take pleasure in their
work.
