Every business reaches a point where processes and tasks could be done more efficiently making better use of time and resources. Employee morale is directly tied to the company culture and what flavor of the company Kool-Aid is being served. Sometimes these things need to be changed up a bit so that the business can experience sustainable growth and take things to the next level.
As a business consulting firm here in Northern New Jersey, we help clients throughout Bergen County and Rockland County New York turn their businesses around from stagnant to viable and growing. Sometimes it’s a simple issue such as the company or culture having gotten stuck in a particular groove that’s old and not very apparent until you look at it from the outside – and begin thinking out of the box.
Other times it’s a little more serious. Maybe some financial concerns because profits are down, or e-commerce is not what it should be, or new programs need to be introduced to breath life into the business. We are actually working with a local company now who’s mantra was “but we’ve always done it this way” and in the same breath “but everything we try never works” which simply screams “help we are stuck in the mud!!!!”.
How you do what you do sometimes also needs to be kicked up a notch or two. If processes are too clunky there would be a call for streamlining and efficiency and creating an easy to follow routine. This not only encourages efficient usage of time and resources but also can bring up employee morale which encourages teamwork and camaraderie. Maybe your employees would benefit from work at home flex time, a revamped company culture of a more relaxed and productive atmosphere. Rewards for jobs well done. Who knows? Some companies expect their employees to drink the company Kool-Aid while ignoring the fact that many are pretending to like the culture simply because they need the job, not because it’s actually an enjoyable experience.
The last thing your company needs is a negative tone. This is picked up by employees and customers alike. You don’t need production slipping, you need it to grow. You don’t need staff turnover, you need staff to be happy and productive and to do their best every day.
