Abhishek Mittal Building Accountability for Employee Engagement

Cross-posted from http://abhishekmittal.com Many a times, I find that HR folks rush too fast to make employee engagement metrics a part of KPIs or balanced scorecards. The idea is that there should be a “carrot” to ensure that managers take accountability for their people, otherwise they won’t spend time on open dialogue with their teams and co-create action plans for improvement in engagement levels. I was recently asked if the carrot and stick ap… Continue

Jason Scott Is Your Idea of Workplace "Fun" Unfriendly to Introverts?

Working toward a "Building a Harmonious Workplace" policy that works for everyone, a colleague directed me to this article from the Atlantic that takes a humorous approach to the subject of introversion. theAtlantic.com While it's not a solution to our little policy dilemma (of trying to balance the company's need for everyone to apply some grease to the wheels once in a while with some employee's strong desire to be left alone) I do th… Continue

Abhishek Mittal Employee Engagement - Where to Focus?

After having worked with multiple organizations across multiple geographies on Employee Engagement programs, there is still an interesting debate I have with clients, colleagues, friends and HR practitioners.

Abhishek Mittal Recognition: Missing the ‘Soft’ Levers

Don Lowman wrote a couple of interesting posts “The Power of Thank You” and “Expressing Informed Admiration”. I know that there is a general consensus that recognition is a powerful motivator, but I feel it is quite an under-utilized tool in the people-managers’ toolkit.
