Many times in the past several months, we have to turn down new prospective clients because we dont have enough resources. And after we do have the resources available, most of those clients have found someone else.
This is bad. And it is all because our company fails to attract enough talented people.
After much thought and soul searching, I realize that what we’re running is really actually a people business, more so than an IT business. Our company needs to be able to attract, grow, and retain the best talents.
So I started reading Workforce Wakeup Call, 30 Reasons Employees Hate Their Manager, How to Motivate Every Employee, etc. And I’m inspired. I implemented lots of HR strategies that have proven to motivate the employees, and to attract new great talents.
Yes, attract new people, even in this bad world economic weather! In fact, we’re in the process of hiring many more people than we need.
It’s a GREAT investment; even better than investing money in a bullish stock market!
And we never have to turn down new clients anymore!
