Some of the proactive companies started focusing on Human Asset rather than Fixed assets for creating sustainable differentiator for growth and created human asset balance sheet a decade ago.

Today employees have become a core focus group for most of the employers in this competitive era. Attracting, retaining and making them deliver superior outcomes have always been a challenge for businesses more so when the chips are down.

The core challenge for organizations has been to ensure how they ensure that they maximize on the talent pool they have and create a positive energy at workplace where each employee of the organization is willing to walk the extra mile, in order to serve the customer better which ultimately will contribute to the sustainable growth of business.

Context

 

The subprime crisis in the USA has and its impending impact on the economic situation of various countries including India.This has led to two key challenges for most companies

  • Sustaining growth in an otherwise gloomy market scenario
  • Ensuring motivation and positivity in the wake of cost reduction and layoffs.

Sustaining growth in an otherwise gloomy-market scenario

When the economic and market scenario is not congenial only the tough and sound companies can grow. As human resource is the key differentiator for growth, an engaged workforce and a positive environment is essential to sustain the growth momentum.

Imagine a situation where your sales executive calls on a customer and is not enthusiastic about his products or services. The outcome is obvious. On the contrary another executive who is bubbling with energy and positivity, putting his best foot forward to convince the customer about your product or service. The outcome could be significantly different. Now most of your sales force falls in first category or the second category would determine whether your organization is one of those which will grow or stagnate. Engaged workforce can engage customers to drive growth even when chips are down.

While employees feel charged up and in good spirits when the organization is doing good and lot of positivity surrounds them (they might well not be engaged but satisfied); challenges come when the mood around is somber and lotof uncertainty surrounds them.

Ensuring motivation and positivity in the wake of cost reduction and layoffs.

Lot of companies is considering methods of ensuring motivation and positivity while managing costs. We need to plan how to manage and minimize its impact. In hard times tough decisions maybe taken in different ways. Minimizing disengagement of your people becomes important so that you don't run into the risk of losing your best and brightest talent.

When the time is tough, you need to open up dialogue about the challenging time and seek everybody's commitment to drive past the same. It will also ensure that the team

  • understand the decisions you are making and the reasons for them
  • will be able to identify what these changes mean for them and their roles
  • will be better equipped to explain any changes to clients or business partners
  • and will undoubtedly be able to share ideas and suggestions they have for managing through tough times.

Business managers, as Gallup has found the most important people who influence engagement of people in an organization and improving their ability to manage their team in a positive manner is what differentiates a engaged workgroup to disengaged workgroup (other things being equal) and Gallup's engagement programs are built around improving managerial capability of the organization and link it to business performances.

In this context it becomes necessary for us to go to the basics and understand how we come up with challenging time by leveraging the best asset which we have, I.e. employees. This summit is around learning those basics which will help us overcoming the tough time.
