Grimme\'s Top 10 Tips: To Attract, Retain & Motivate Employees



1 Pay employees fairly and well - then get them to forget about money.



2 Treat each and every employee with respect. Show them that you care about them as persons, not just as workers.



3 Praise accomplishments and attempts…



Both large and small

At least 4 times more than you \"criticize\"

Publicly and in private

Verbally and in writing

Promptly (as soon as observed)

Sincerely



4 Clearly communicate goals, responsibilities and expectations. NEVER criticize in public – redirect in private.



5 Recognize performance appropriately and consistently:

Reward outstanding performance (e.g., with promotions and opportunities)

Do not tolerate sustained poor performance – coach and train or remove!



6 Involve employees in plans and decisions, especially those that affect them. Solicit their ideas and opinions. Encourage initiative.



7 Create opportunities for employees to learn and grow. Link the goals of the organization with the goals of each individual in it.



8 Actively listen to employees concerns – both work-related and personal.



9 Share information promptly, openly and clearly. Tell the truth… with compassion.



10 Celebrate successes and milestones reached – organizational and personal. Create an organizational culture that is open, trusting and fun!
