Get..Train..Retain.
Three key words all companies should have on the top of the training manuals for management team members. Your team members make your brand..Get..Train..Retain. Sounds easy right? Well not for every company. I was talking to a friend who is a HR professional last week and we were talking about how to reward team members for thinking.
-One suggestion I had was to reward/bonus team members for ideas that didn't work! She almost spit her soda up at me when I said that. Why would you reward someone for an idea that didn't work she said. Why not give them a reason to be thinking and innovating. If they have an idea that is well thought out and documented on paper and the company tries the idea and it doesn't work as expected, give them a bonus for coming up with the idea. We are working on writing the idea up as she is going to present this idea and a few others to her CEO next week.... I will keep you posted if she still has a job!
Thinking outside the box...successful companies have the culture and most unsuccessful do not...we believe her company does, does yours?
