Retention
• What do you think is the most demotivating part of Harper’s job?
Harper’s demotivated because Jose is no more her supervisor. She is not having an interaction with David was a new supervisor as well as her workload also increased under his supervision which also demotivated Harper. She was having the work-life imbalance issues which affected personal as well as professional life negatively.
• If you were an HR manager meeting with Harper’s supervisor, David, what advice would you give to help David re-engage Harper?
As a Human Resource Executive, I will advice David to focus on develop a work environment of free interaction as well as open communication. This will help the employees to communicate their problem to supervisor. It is also suggested to David to focus on implement the practices of work-life balance. Even the one-to-communication is required between David and Harper to develop a bond and trust. The workload should not exceed a certain limit in order to help Harper to have work-life balance. For motivating Harper, David should give compensation and awards Harper on her achievements.
• What would be the downside of losing Harper as an employee?
By losing Harper like an employee, the organization will have loss of money spent her recruitment, selection, performance management training as well retaining in the organization. Even the company’s HR manager is required to recruit and select the new employee as her replacement, which will increase the cost of hiring as well as training. This requires the investment of time and money of the company which is very expensive to the company. It also does guarantee that the new employee will adapt the culture or being a competent like earlier employee.
