As you go out of your home to start the day, you will see a man on his
bike throwing newspaper rolls to the each door in your neighborhood. Then, you
would think that it is his job, his business. As you go cross another street,
you will see shops selling variety of products. There are people inside, other
than the customers, organizing goods into the shelves, cleaning the glass
windows, and smiling at the people who approach the counter. They must be the
employees.
Sirota Consulting, a company in Purchase, New York that deals with organizational
assessments and employee survey programs came up with business principles that
are proven to be applicable not only for small businesses but for large
organizations. Sirota is also one of the employee engagement survey ompanies that is dedicated to help organizations succeed in meeting their
respective goals.
Unlock Potential. Sirota believes that by gaining insights,
an organization is able to unlock its potential and increase productivity. Each
employee is hired by a company believing that one would contribute to the
expected outcome of the business but certainly each person has a hidden
potential that needs to be unlocked. An improved performance would add up to
the production of the company.
Unique Approach. Businesses are unique from one another in their own way. Two shops may
be selling a common good but what makes the difference is the method they use
to attract customers and get more sales. What Sirota does to ensure that an
organization is on the right track using its own approach is business
performance consulting. This is a way they monitor if the business is still
productive and in an acceptable level of competence.
Business is not a project but a relationship. In a certain group, it is the kind of relationship
that exists that makes everything harmonious. Who would want to work under
great pressure and stress? But because that is something unavoidable in a
workplace, there should be a good relationship in between each employee and the
employees to their leader. Working to accomplish a certain task with
proficiency is not a matter of who the gives the instruction. It is more of how
each member of the organization contributes to have it done. It is not a matter
of superiority but a matter of how a leader gives equal treatment to his
subordinates.
Share your knowledge to gain knowledge. What you know might not be common to your
workmates. If you think that it can help in finishing a particular task then
why not share it? A knowledge that is stagnant is useless. When an employee
knows how to share his insights, it is there where other new forms of strategy
are created. Knowledge comes from other knowledge. It is a continuous
derivation of thoughts. If individual employees think then surely it will not
be a burden to come up with a powerful solution to the company’s challenges.
This is what Sirota Consulting has learned from its own experience they
have had while in business. Everything counts and given with equal attention –
from assessment including employee exit survey, down to the execution of
each strategies vital to organizational growth and improvement.
