Fairness and employees engagement. (Copia)
Marco Alverà made a very powerful speech at TED last year. He runs SNAM and believes that caring for people is all that Executives looking for people engagement need. Taking care of employees, thus making them close and engaged, involves 4 actions:
Allowing everyone to feel they have the possibility to make mistakes, made in good faith, and not only possible but precious items you can learn from.
Stimulating the variety among people, their ideas, proposals, helping them to become aware of their own prejudices so that they can put them aside and make room for listening and reflection.
Simplifying rules, processes, systems, keeping only the clear and meaningful ones.
Constantly asking oneself what the needs and emotions of employees are to always bring out the best from them.
