Kamal Agarwala, Founder & CEO at La Exactly Software Private Limitedwrites about from non-monetary tactics offered to employees and itsbenefits.
Motivation is important to keep a check on attrition rate and enhanceproductivity of the organization. Monetary incentive is not the only way tomotivate. Monetary incentives can be given once in a while and they arenot enough to keep employees motivated all round the year. Truemotivation comes in from non-monetary tactics offered to employees bytheir bosses and that includes access to good technology and self-serviceoptions in the form of a robust HRMS.
Employee First ApproachYou can deliver better service to customers only if your employees are happy. Communication is the key to success.Take genuine interest in employees. The communication should go beyond business talks. Conduct a weekly informalmeeting with your team members to just talk and you can talk about anything. Use an effective HRMS to enhancecommunication between employees and their managers.
Be Unbiased To EmployeesDo not favor any one employee over others. It creates negative vibes in the team. Break the barriers of office politicsand do not pay heed to third party gossips. As a manager, it is your responsibility to be caring towards your teammembers and do not pass judgements without assessing the situation first hand. A good HRMS will help you provideunbiased appraisals, leading to contentment.
Engage Your EmployeesHigher the engagement of employees in important decisions, higher is the motivation level. Employees feel connected tothe organization. Every opinion matters. Involve them in decision making process wherever possible. Self-service HRMSmodules and gamification help to engage employees.
Enhance Interaction Among EmployeesInability to interact with members of other team causes a lot of anxiety among many employees. It is probably becauseemployees feel restrained in their limited role and moreover it is in the nature of humans to be social. Create cross-functional teams to let employees have overall understanding of the project and see a bigger picture. Shuffle teammembers to allow employees to interact with other employees. It should be a part of team building efforts in yourorganization. HRMS tools can be equipped with tools to enhance interaction between other employees as well.
Growth OpportunitiesEmployees should be able to follow a career path and be able to project professional and personal growth down the line.And employees can grow only if their skills are put to best possible use and they are offered more responsibility.Unleash the latent potential of employees by keenly observing them. It is the duty of the team manager to allocate theright employee for the right task.
RecognitionRecognize hard work and dedication. Frequently, commend your team members in front of the entire team to boost theirmorale. Do not wait for too long to appreciate. Appreciation creates healthy competition among team members and it isthe best way to lift their spirits. Announce weekly or monthly performers and display them on company bulletin board.Tell them how they have been useful and can be extremely useful for the company in future. Share the vision ofcompany’s growth and importance of project completion. Use HRMS appraisals to award and reward deservingemployees.
Looking ForwardSurprise your team members by helping or working extensively on the task allotted to them. Furthermore, you do notwant to give an impression that you like to burden your employees with the same tedious task. Offer flexible workinghours and work from home options if possible. Convenience of work time and place is major driver for motivation andthis is made possible with the help of self service modules within an HRMS.
Motivation ensures dedication towards a project or task at hand thereby realizing long-term benefits to the organization.In the end, it is about closely understanding your team members. Every person is different and managers can usedifferent tactics to please and motivate them. If the employees are happy, your customers will express satisfaction aswell.
