3 steps to Maintain the Gain
It is one thing to make something better
It is something else to MAINTAIN the GAIN!!
So how do you MAINTAIN the GAIN?
It must be:
How can I play offense with my greatest asset?
You can't change a mindset by reading a book
Reading a book can start the process of changing a mindset
However, the new thought process must result in
changed BEHAVIOR and ACTION - which is the hardest part
Most people in HR have a Compliance - Transactional mindset:
1. They see themselves as "Employee Advocates"
Your profit formula and how HR can make you more money
Most HR professionals do not know what a profit formula is
You know your company's profit formula forwards and backwards
Where the opportunities are and when a line item is 1% off
The manager of the greatest asset should:
1. Drive increases in productivity
The same people problems over and over - ad nauseam
You are making progress in all areas of your company
Except your "Greatest Asset" - the same old problems persist
An anchor holding you back

"I hire 4 employees hoping 1 will work out"

Numbers don't randomly change overnight - people do - how to prepare
I have said to many a CFO: "HR is harder because numbers don't change over night - employees do!"
Most CFOs don't disagree
