Creating
Employers of Choice
Being
an Employer of Choice helps an organization
achieve higher levels of success over an extended period of time.
Employees want to be part of a winning team! This requires a corporate
culture which encourages and promotes the appreciation of your human
resources. Such Employers of Choice have
enlightened employee relations practices and customer services processes
that assure consistency of effort and quality delivery. As we have
discovered, staff productivity is directly related to their satisfaction
with their work environment and the work they do.
How
do you identify an Employer of Choice?
By the following attributes:
Low
turnover
Stellar
employee morale
Substantial
investment in employee development and growth
Employee
friendliness to customers
On-time
delivery to customers
Marketplace
reputation second to none
Employees
viewed as an asset, not a liability
Employees
skilled in effective communication and conflict minimization
Creating
a Shared Vision and Shared Values
Building
and retaining an enabled and skilled workforce is one of today's
most challenging business issues. Employees seek out workplaces
that have a firm vision in place that provides for on-going growth
and development. Using a representative sample of employees from
all levels of the organization, participants will draft the organization's
mission and vision statements as well as its principles and values.
These drafts will be shared with other organizational members for
further suggestions before completion. This activity involves some
pre- and post-activity work.
