Problem

Competitive advantage can be attained through different practices which consider recruiting, selecting, promoting diversity in the workgroup, handling knowledge, bringing up the creativity, and centring on employee growth and involvement.

Organisations go on making faulty decisions regarding employees who are responsible for the major company operations. These would include steps like selection process, evaluation, training and allocation process. Work group has to be designed properly to nurture the performance of the employees.

Solution

Employees who use their innate qualities produce more than the normal workers. It is proven that sometimes emotions drive the success of the Business. The growth of the organisations depends on how employer looks at the emotions of employees as well as the customers. Employers need to take time to find out the talent in their employees in all compoundings. This aids in identifying the people who can adopt change immidiately. Employees come up with new ideas which make the organisation grow in all aspects.

The work group design should take the capacity, functioning and competency of the functions carried out by the employees in the organization to maximize the job expiation. The major activity of the management is to divide the work between the group members. The key role is played by the HRM in doing this as it deals with human right from designing, forming, merging the work groups. Each individual is responsible for the work assigned to him and should finish it within the given time span. HR person motivates the employees in performing the job well at the same time looks that the employee is satisfied with the job. Sometimes it becomes difficult to HR because within the work group he need to assign people in different roles depending upon their skill (Armstrong,M 2001,Cox,T 1991).

Everybody work hard and excel in what they are doing until they are paid for it accordingly.
Employees should try to determine and enhance the flaws in their employers.
Each employer should be treated the same way .It’s not always necessary that people should possess just talent; they need to have skills, knowledge and competence to make organisation foster growth in all aspects.
Employers should understand the combination of talent which would lead to increase in profits and prosper the growth.

Employees should assess their performance and talent levels and it is good if management helps in assessing them. Factors which need to be considered during assessing are:

1. Are employees’ focused to work?

2. Are they suitable to the position they are in?

3. Is management giving value to their decisions?

4. How is management helpful to the employee?

5. How organisation is helping the employee grow?

6. Feedback and the rewards given to the employee?

7. Giving new challenges making employee to think more and improve skills

Employers need to engage their employees always and build their confidence. This makes people focus on work rather than think of their weakness. When you show more trust in them they tend to work harder for the organisation. Employees should always be engaged with work within their work groups, so that they can use their maximum power. Study of economic significances of employee’s engagement yields growth to the organisation. For an organisation to be competitive, employers must consider their employees as defenders. If people are not engaged it would affect the organisation some millions of dollars yearly. Recognising and treating the customer’s with emotional loyalty will bring back to you.

Practical Impact
