Some people say that there are two reasons why talents cannot be retained: one is that there is less money, and the other is cold.
If salary levels are considered as a "hard indicator" of talent retention, then corporate culture and managers' support and respect for team members are like "soft benefits".
In many cases, the "soft welfare" that exudes the brilliance of human nature is more impressive than the "hard indicators", and it is more able to retain truly excellent talents.
In recent years, a supermarket in a third- and fourth-tier city in Henan Province has repeatedly swiped its screen.
Jack Ma praised it as "a mirror that can reflect the shortcomings of other companies";Lei Jun called it "the god-like existence of China's retail industry".
When it comes to the secret of success, the chairman of this company summed up these words-Respect for employees and humanity
According to online reports, the company distributes more than 90% of its profits to employees every year. In addition to the salary and bonus of real gold, there are also a variety of employee care, which is well-known in the local area.
The chairman of the company once said the following paragraph, which is enough to make many operators reflect:
Do we have employees in our hearts?We may be using our employees more, for our own name, for our own interests, for our own glory, for our so-called beautiful life and success, we allow ourselves to become more and more hypocritical, and the most terrible thing is that we don't know that we are vampires.
Ask yourself, do we treat our employees as human beings?Will you pay attention to the lives of your employees?Employees' work status and life status”
When facing employees, many business operators think of "the company is mine, you work for me", "I pay you a salary, you have to work hard for me", "I am the boss, you are an employee, there is no need to get close to you" ......
What kind of "knowledge" there is, what kind of "action" there will be. With such thoughts, invisibly, words and deeds will reveal a high-minded and commanding posture, and how can you put the team in your eyes and heart.
The result can be imagined, employees can also feel your arrogance and contempt for him, and he naturally does not have much sense of belonging to the company, "how much salary you give me, how much work I do". When he encounters a better opportunity, he will definitely leave as soon as possible.
When the operator only wants to use employees, the relationship between the enterprise and the employee is the most shallow transactional relationship, and it cannot withstand the test of any wind and waves.
Therefore, in order to retain people, business managers need to re-understand the relationship between themselves and their employees.
There are four sentences like this, which can help business operators better understand the relationship between themselves and their employees.
First, employees are the people who want you to be good the most
Second, employees are the people who can help you the most
3. Employees are the same people as you and me
Fourth, employees are the people who walk with you and me
In fact, these are so simple that they can't be simpler. In a thousand words, it is "treat employees as people and treat yourself as people".
Sometimes, if you just do a little bit of kindness and sincerity, employees will be grateful to the company.
A company in Ningxia, in the initial stage of market development, the product could not find a market, was in debt, and in the most difficult time, even the team's salary could not be paid.
The general manager felt that the future of the enterprise was uncertain, and there was no hope for a while. For the sake of living, he submitted his resignation to the chairman.
In the face of the resignation of senior executives, the chairman of this company was very guilty, and he said to the general manager, "You have been suffering with me, no matter whether the company makes money now or not, I will give you money when you leave." You bring 20,000 yuan, and you have a little money on you to have a living guarantee. ”
It was just like this that the general manager was completely moved: the company is in debt, almost at the critical juncture of life and death, the chairman himself needs to borrow money to get by, and he can understand the subordinates who want to leave, what a generous person this is.
So, he changed his mind and stayed, and he has been until today. In the middle, no matter what kind of difficulties and ups and downs the company encountered, the general manager never wavered again.
Peter Drucker said: ".The essence of management is to stimulate people's goodwill and potential.
The ego and the ego squeeze each other, and the ego and the ego excite each other. If you want to inspire the kindness of others, you must first release your kindness and use your own ego to excite the greater self of others.
The way of the saint is self-sufficient. The love and respect for others in our hearts, and the empathy that "when we see our children entering the well, there must be pain in our hearts", are all self-sufficient.
It's just that in the process of growing up later, for the sake of fame, profit, and greed and selfish desires in our hearts, we blinded our conscience and gradually became hypocritical and numb.
Fortunately, "the big self is self-sufficient, and the small self can be removed".
The Tao Te Ching says: "For learning day by day, for the Tao day by day." Destroy the excessive desires in the heart, sweep away the dust on the conscience, and make it pure and clear.
At this time, we can re-understand the relationship with employees, put love for employees in our hearts, and do not treat employees as "costs", but use perfect welfare protection and sincere love to safeguard the rights and dignity of employeesExchange your sincerity for the sincerity of your employees
