A few days ago, Lao Wang saw a post on the Internet. A leader said: "Excellent employees who have worked hard for many years have been poached by their peers with high salaries. What should I do? "
Many netizens left a message below saying: The salary is not in place. ...
Some netizens also said that they would rather dig people with high salaries than give old employees a raise. ...
Some netizens said: Training is not for not paying high salaries. ...
After reading these comments, Lao Wang thinks that the problem of employee job-hopping needs comprehensive analysis, and it can't be explained clearly in one or two sentences. Lao Wang thinks the reasons are as follows:
1. Excellent employees trained by themselves should also get high salaries. High salary has little to do with training, but has a lot to do with whether you can solve problems, create value and contribute to the enterprise.
Lao Wang told a case-an employee of Lao Wang's friend company.
The boss is very diligent in training an employee, and he also thinks that this employee has a particularly good ability. Good resources and power tend to be given to him, but this employee is not liked by other employees.
Once, Lao Wang went to their company to chat. The boss mentioned this problem and asked Lao Wang how to deal with it.
Lao Wang thinks this problem is relatively simple, and the specific operation is:
1. Initiate the mutual evaluation of department personnel.
2. Choose the best employees or the employees with the best and worst performance in your mind from the aspects of performance, team performance, customer service, contribution to the company and problem-solving performance. According to the company's situation, just choose three, not too many, too many is meaningless.
3. Remove the highest and lowest votes.
4. The result of internal voting is not public, which is also a management tool. However, the three best voting data need to be open and anonymous.
5. Talk to the worst and best top 3 respectively.
Finally, you will find that the good employees you think, the good employees you are training or training, are not necessarily good employees, and may even play a bad role.
You may say that employees will canvass votes, pay attention to relationships, and do not engage in performance. Wrong, please don't underestimate your employees. Everyone has a steelyard in his heart. This steelyard can't be fake or wrong.
This friend of Lao Wang, after a vote, finally found that the employees he trained were really not the best performers. At the same time, the boss also tapped several other excellent employees in the company.
So, what you think is good is not necessarily really good, but what is good in everyone's heart is really good.
2. Others can be poached by high salary, which means that your salary is too low, or this employee is very depressed about you.
This problem is a common problem in the workplace. When Lao Wang was a headhunter, he also met many bosses who complained that their hard-earned employees had been poached by their opponents.
Every time Lao Wang hears such a question, he thinks:
1) If the other party can poach the outstanding employees in your heart with high salary, it means that there is something wrong with your direction and motivation to cultivate people.
2) If the other party can poach your people with a high salary, it means that your salary to employees is too low to meet the needs of employees. You might say that the salary is already high. Yes, every boss thinks his salary is high, but it is very low in the market, even lower than the average market salary.
3) As for the titles of excellent employees, these are your own "titles" and employees may not recognize them.
Lao Wang believes that in order to retain employees, we must first meet the basic physiological needs (wages) and then meet the high-level needs. If your salary is not much different from the average market salary, employees will not easily choose to leave. However, some employees will also choose to leave because of their relationship with the direct leader and the team atmosphere.
Lao Wang believes that if you want to retain employees, you should do the following:
1) High salary. This is the basic condition.
2) If your company wants to develop and its salary is high, employees will not leave; If your company doesn't develop, you won't get a high salary, and employees will leave. Only when your company is getting stronger and bigger every day, and employees feel that working here has face and prospects, they will not choose to leave.
3) The atmosphere of the company and the relationship with subordinates are also the reasons why employees leave their jobs. When Lao Wang was doing career counseling, he came across a case: the salary of an employee in the company was not too high, but his immediate superior was very kind to him and taught him a lot, and he grew rapidly. He spends about 90 minutes on his way to and from work every day, but he has no choice to leave. The reason is that his leadership ability is particularly good and he can learn a lot from it.
3. Employees are poached by high salaries, and another point is that you have failed to achieve "mission, affection and interests".
Anyone who has seen Water Margin knows that Sung River is the eldest brother. But why can only "hypocritical" Song Jiang become the eldest brother and boss?
The reason is that Song Jiang has achieved "mission, feelings and interests". The workplace also needs Song Jiang's thinking.
What exactly is "mission, feelings and interests"?
1) "Mission" is a mission put forward by Liang Shanbo. It can make many people live meaningful and interesting at once because it can help heaven. As an enterprise, your mission is clear, which will naturally attract many experts to join.
2) "Feelings" means that Song Jiang keeps saying that everyone is brothers, born for brothers, died for brothers and so on. No one wants to leave such a leader. As a manager or leader of an enterprise, you should not forget your hard work. Speaking and not telling, caring about performance and not showing are completely different in the minds of employees.
3) "Affordable" means that Song Jiang "treats money like dirt" and dares to give it to his brother. In this way, his brothers naturally worked hard for Song Jiang. The same is true for enterprises. If the salary is given in place, employees will not leave even if they are tired. Look at many companies now, such as Big Week or 996, why do employees want it? High salary. However, Lao Wang suggested that no matter how high the salary is, we should also care about the health of employees, otherwise it will be difficult to go far.
