Changing Behavior: Why Rewards and Punishments Often Aren't Enough

Major changes have been taking place at the workplace. Today, the workforce is no longer a staid or static one. It is lively, vibrant and mobile. No organization can expect to retain a workforce in which wholehearted appreciation is not forthcoming or where the employees do not make a difference.
Organizations judge employees on the quality of their own work, but also that of their team members. This makes it necessary for individuals to assist their team members and help them raise their standards. However, with each employee being unique, one standard method or principle cannot be applied across the board.
Team members, especially Leads and Managers, need to learn the fundamentals of human motivation if they have to motivate and engage each employee and the entire team for top performance in tune with their unique strengths, attitudes and skillsets. Some of the questions they have to pose to themselves and be able to answer include:
  • What works well and what doesn’t?
  • How effective are rewards and punishment in the workplace?
  • How do we learn to get the results needed, while at the same time, also building a dedicated team?

Rewards and Recognitions that Get You What You Want to Achieve

The information that follows applies to human resources personnel and management at all levels.Rewards and recognitions are the responsibility of all involved in the management and development of employees. My belief is that one size does not fit all and in order to achieve the desired outcomes, both task responsibilities and individual differences must be taken into account. Why You have to Know There are numerous elements that decide an association's arrangement around remuneration, advantages, prizes and acknowledgments. Maybe the absolute first choice that should be made is one of the essential estimations of the organization. Is it going to be an organization dependent on rank and security or one dependent on legitimacy - or a blend of the two? Government offices and association controlled associations as a rule settle on the real choices of remuneration around arrangement, rank and security. So too do numerous associations in the corporate world.Smaller organizations

Introducing The Simple Way To IDENTITY ISSUES In BANKING

Identity theft is one of the foremost issues for the banking industry. It goes without saying, from an observation of any of the patterns that the fraudsters use for theft, that they are smart.

Electronic Payment Fraud Prevention Best Practices

As online and electronic modes of payment increase in their prevalence, it is a lot easier to transact with money matters than it was a few years ago. One doesn’t need to visit a bank or any other financial institution to make these. One can do so from the comfort of one’s own location. But wait a minute. While these improvements in technology have made our tasks easier, they also come with an inevitable side effect: the potential for fraud. Vulnerability is a byproduct of technology. It is almost inseparable from the benefits that technology brings. Not only individuals around the world, but even organizations are at the receiving end of various smart frauds that dot the electronic payment landscape. Ironical as it may sound, companies don’t have the same levels and layers of protection from electronic payment fraud as individuals. They have less than 24 hours to report the fraud, failing which their chances of recovering their lost money reduce dramatically. So, what is the way
