Making People Matter
The first suggestion in this month’s Entrepreneur article on improving your business is “Make Your Employees Matter”. Think about the times you have worked someplace you felt valued versus times you have been unappreciated. The difference in your performance was probably enormous.
CareerVision.org reported last year that “only 20 percent [of workers] feel very passionate about their jobs”.
People need to be inspired. People need to feel that their voices are being heard. I believe that most of us are hard-working at heart. Laziness and apathy surface when we are not challenged, motivated, and appreciated. Treat your employees, and everyone else in your life, as the valuable assets they are, and the returns to you will be tremendous.
