It is very common for what Harper is feeling. Humans for the most part do not enjoy change and it can be difficult to acclimate to change. This with added on stress could make anyone feel defeated.

The first tip I would suggest for anyone being in this situation is to voice their concerns as well as needs that could help on finding a solution. It looks like Harper has tried to express her concerns to her new boss. But it seemed that her needs weren’t not met.

The next step would be reporting the issue to HR. Here HR can coordinate with David on an action plan. The first step is seeing if filling Jose’s positions would be in the companies best interest. If there is an ability to fill his position promoting Harper will be a huge advantage for the company. She has been with the company for about 4 years and worked under her previous boss very closely. If not hiring someone into Jose’s position is not feasible then steps to showing acknowledgment the good work Harper has been doing needs to begin. The company can also use other employees to delegate task to so Harper doesn’t feel all the pressure themselves.

Losing Harper would cost the company more money because they will need to find another person to fill her position and train them which take a lot of time and energy.

What do you think is the most demotivating part of Harper’s job?

Harper Jones is a 26-year-old marketing coordinator at Marketable Incorporation. She had the same role since she was 22. After Jose left, Jones had some difficulty trying to catch up with the workload. The most demotivating part of Harper’s job is her not being heard. Harper Jones had to take over Jose’s work since the company didn’t find anyone else for his position. Harper understands that David has many more responsibilities; however, she feels stressed because there is no one to talk to.

If you were an HR manager meeting with Harper’s supervisor, David, what advice would you give to help David re-engage Harper?

If I were an HR manager, I would tell David to check up on his employees. As an HR manager, I would get that David has a lot on his plate; however, other employees might be struggling too; this can lead to workers quitting, which would not be suitable for the company. I would also suggest finding a new employee to cover Jose’s role so other employees won’t have to do more than they were told to do. Not finding someone to cover Jose’s position can lead to employee burnout.

Losing Harper as an employee would be appalling for the company. Harper Jones has been doing all the work Jose was supposed to do.

3) What would be the downside of losing Harper as an employee?

by losing Harper her workplace will take a long time to lead the new worker get on to it.

If I were in Harper’s shoes I would feel happy at first because I would think they trust me enough in order to take more responsibilities but later on I would probably feel like they do not care about how much stuff I have going on and how I am handling it. I would say that what discourages Harper the most is that she does not find someone to support on when she is overwhelmed with work and responsibilities and maybe the abandonment she feels by the company or superiors since she does not feel recognized or appreciated by her performance.

I would advice David that he could try to organize a little better the distribution of time he has to manage different areas or to get in contact more often with Harper regarding concerns she might be having and provide with suggestions or refer to different facilities and resources. Since he has more people under his charge, it might be difficult for him to involve more in deep in everyone’s situation but it is also important to show that even in that position, a little time to at least listen to your employees’s difficulties is appreciated. He could also offer benefits for the future as compensation for when they find someone for the position she is assuming at the moment. Like, a paid week vacation or something that she would appreciate.

Harper has proven to be an outstanding employee by stepping up when there was no one else to take charge and be responsible of that empty space that they had. By losing her, they would be losing someone with the potential for career development in the future or someone with the potential to lead. And even without those options in mind, the company would be losing a great employee and all the expenses that come with it, like ending a contract and finding someone to replace her.

Now that we learned more about the turnover of a company and the process of hiring, we know that the company is suffering from that empty position. The efficiency of the area or department may have decreased, they are spending money while advertising and looking to recruit. So, if we add to this losing Harper, the situation could only get worse because the remaining employees would be even more overworked and that could decreased their job satisfaction and so on. It is like a cycle when companies loose competent employees.
