After reading the case study provided, it seems like this company needs to work on their management. Reading what’s going on with Harper, I can see that the most demotivating part of her job is that, she is doing more work than ever and doesn’t feel like she is being recognized for her contributions. The worst thing you can do as a company is to not recognize your employee, you gotta make them feel like you care and appreciate them for all their doing for your company. Not something then this can raise your employee retention and that’s not go for your company because, you will be losing a lot of money.

If I was a HR manager, meeting with Harper’s supervisor, David the first thing I would tell him before giving him advise on how to re- engage Harper is, to always make sure your employees feels welcome and appreciated. Some key exponents I would tell David to do is, make time for them, realign their goals, set short & long term expectations, recognize good performance and incentivize improvement. In this case Harper’s is not getting any communication from his supervisor David, making her feel like what she’s doing is worthless and is not recognition worthy. She feels like she’s doing all this extra work  and is not getting any help or credit for what she’s doing.

If this company’s were to lose a caliber such as Harper, they will be taking a big hit towards their company. The first thing that will happen is their employee retention will fly because, now they have to look for a replacement or try to retain them by giving or offering them something to stay. Harper is not someone they would want to lose as a company because it seems like he’s the glue that holds it down and without him that company will not excellent to new heights.
