Perception

The Mining Sector is luring our most valued employees with the promise of big money
Reality

It is very difficult to attract new talent and we don't have the money to compete with the mining sector.

"You be the Judge"

Perception
Employers are fighting a losing battle
Reality
Our experience is that money is not the highest priority for employees. Most people that are truly engaged in their work have been given clear direction. They have an understanding of what is required of them and are made to feel part of the team. These employees are not looking for other opportunities.

Our Challenge to you...Do you really understand who is engaged in your business and who is looking for the next oportunity to present itself?

We believe proactive employers can save money and heart ache by having a stratagy for attracting, engaging and growing employees. Today it is imperative that you have the right basics in place.

Tip 1 .... We suggest you start  with the following steps
  1. Clearly understand what it is that your business requires from your employees
  2. Clearly document what you require from each of your employees
  3. Clearly communicate verbally and in writing what you expect from each of your employees
  4. Agree on how you and your people are going to know when they have achieved what has been asked
  5. Review your changing business needs.....go back to point 1 regularly to adjust and proactivly keep employees engaged
Tip 2 ....Spend time to clearly understand the temperature of your business and the level of engagement of your employees. This can be done in many different ways. Remember what people tell you may be what they think you want to hear, especially when it comes to talking to the boss. Surveys, appraisals, workshops or external interviews are some of the ways more honest feedback can be achieved. Do you conduct exit interviews? A carefully constructed exit interview process can be invaluable for understanding the unspoken word. Read More

Tip 3 ....Make time...yes we know you are busy doing what you do best, however a well managed workforce will be your company's best asset. If you don't have time, make time, if you can't make time, seek assistance externally. Whatever the situation you have an obligation to yourself, your company and your employees to make an investment in your most important and often most expensive asset. If you would like some ideas on how to get started give us a call. We pride ourselves in having practical people solutions for your business.
