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

I feel like what is demotivating Harper Jones would be the way she isn’t getting recognized with the amount of work and extra work she has been doing. I can also see another reason to be that her boss left the organization which must have been hard for her since they have been working together and had a strong connection together. Harper has been struggling in her communication and work relationship with her new boss David. David is also lacking in the workplace by not communicating with the team as a whole and not visualizing what Harper is doing out there. Harper has been feeling very unappreciated and unrecognized which I believe to be the main reason why she feels demotivated. When there is no communication between the boss and employees there is a lack of chemistry, lack of leadership and can affect the workplace as a whole

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

Being the HR manager, the first thing I would do is to meet with David and see how he feels about the whole situation to hear his part first. After this meeting I would let him know and show him that first thing in a workplace should be to make sure every employee feels greeted and very appreciated for the work they are doing. As for Harper, I will make her and David sit down together to see where they are, she has been in the company for 4 years so this wouldn’t be new for her which is a big highlight for her. I personally feel that Harper should know her position in this job and that spot would be a higher role than what she has at the moment or possibly if she still needs a couple more years then lower her workload which would up lift her spirit once again with her job. Most importantly that they will speak about this why not set a goal for the company as a whole to be on the right path again? Harper needs to get recognized more often and not feel worth less in the company, David should start checking up on not only Harper but everyone in the job. Doing all this can put them on track and up lift Harper and the rest of the guys again as a whole.

1. • What would be the downside of losing Harper as an employee?

Losing an employee that loves to work in a company can really affect the company a lot, it can impact the company in many ways. It will be a huge downside if they end up losing Harper because Harper was an excellent employee that naturally loved working for the company. She loved doing what she was doing which is amazing for a company to have someone like that working for them. Losing an employee in general causes the job to find someone new, training them and expecting them to live up to the expectations Harper once reached. Someone like Harper is someone you don’t want to lose in any company because she was pretty much the heart of the company and I don’t really anticipate the company to do so well without her presence in the company.
