Building A Great Place To Work
Based on Research by the Gallup Organization
THE PROBLEM
Research conducted by the renowned Gallup Organization has determined that more than half of all American workers report they don't get to do what they do best every day. Most are bored with their jobs. They feel their supervisors don't care about them. They worry that their talents are being wasted. They believe they don't count.
THE EFFECT
"This is no way to work" observes Dr. Donald O. Clifton, Chairman of Gallup. "It's bad for business; and more important, it's bad for people not just employees who are frustreated, discouraged, demoralized -- but also their families, their communities... our society.
"It's a frightening reflection on the state of the American workplace. And, quite simply, it doesn't have to be".
THE DISCOVERY
These reports are not unique to a particular industry, nor are they prevalent in any given region of the country. But Dr. Clifton observes, "We've surveyd thousands of workers -- and we've uncovered countless exceptions to this trend. Indeed, we've discovered many great places to work. When people are fortunate enough to have A Great Place to Work, it literally impacts every facet of their lives. Yes, they're better workers--but they're also better husbands and wives, better parents, better citizens -- they're better people."
BUILDING A GREAT PLACE TO WORK
A Great Place to Wrok is not found in a specific setting. It's found wherever and whenever employees observe six crucial elements about their workplace. It matches individual talents to opportunities, fosters positive working relationships, communicates specific expectations, motivates with appropriate recognition, provides a learning environment, and measures personal contributions to company-wide goals.
SYNOPSIS
This 24 minute video details the six elements of A Great Place to Work through a series of entertaining vignettes, compelling illustrations, and expert testimony by Dr. Clifton. He discusses each element, offering both poignant observations and strategies for their implementation into any workplace.
