Seems like an oxymoron, right, a drama-free workplace? I created Genesis Human Resources because there is way too much drama in the workplace. The drama takes time of management and other employees. And, because it takes time away from production, it costs money. In fact, conflict in the workplace is a multi-billion dollar problem. I am not so optimistic to believe Genesis Human Resources can alleviate all conflict at work. I do believe we can create far more peace than most companies presently experience. The question comes, “How do we do that?”
First, peace begins with listening. We start with an HR Audit that includes an interview along with a brief narrative from every employee. We are serious about hearing from all, management to the janitor. Our goal is threefold: establish relationships, create a baseline of employee satisfaction, and assist you in hearing valuable feedback about processes, personnel and systems.
Second, peace begins with training. We offer training/consulting to your management team on a monthly basis. You can scan the many training topics we offer to help create better managers. When managers know and understand healthy conflict management techniques, they push conflict down to the employee level allowing upper management to manage, not become arbitrators in disputes. But we don’t just help managers understand conflict, we help them grow in all levels of management skills. Healthy managers create peaceful workplaces.
Third, a new level of peace is achieved working directly with employees. No other HR firm comes close to this level of assistance. We attach a Client Manager with an advanced degree and mediation training to your company. He or she will be on campus monthly for the sole purpose of employee appointments. Employees can schedule 30 minute sessions to assist in areas causing disruption in their performance. We will help employees to resolve disputes at the employee level. We can aid with personal matters that bleed into workplace absenteeism such as family or eldercare issues. We will refer employees to competent professionals for further assistance as needed and monitor progress.
Lastly, we are a neutral third party your employees can trust. Many managers and employees will not speak their minds to company officials. The feedback we obtain is critical in leveraging and advancing the strengths of employees for greater efficiency and production to the company. Employees are happy. Production increases. Companies grow. Peace at work will increase your bottom line. Let us show you how.
