Employees who add valueCategory: News & General Info Published: Wednesday, January 13, 2010 Posted by Dr. Billie Blair Billie Blair, PhD Organizational/Corporate Psychologist; President/CEO, Change Strategists, Inc. In economic environments such as the one that most companies are currently experiencing, it becomes increasingly critical that employees discover how to show value to their company. The process of showing value contains two elements: 1) thoroughly understanding the nature of the organization, its goals and purpose; and 2) determining what it is that one specifically adds toward the overall fullment of the company's goals. Employees' value examinations result in each employee's understanding the company more fully in order to engage in the support of its operating philosophies. In first identifying the value that the company offers to its employees and its customers, the employee utilizes this process to pinpoint what it is that s/he offers to the company that is of unique and intrinsic value. This value determination will also result in employees that are able to make distinct impressions of value upon the company's leaders - most frequently linked with useful value demonstration. The full process of establishing value is one that follows psychological precepts of attitude formation and is, consequently, a process that can be used in the development of sound employee attitudes and orientations. Disparaging work comments such as, " I work at XYZ Corporation, but I don't like my job and I can't stand my boss" are often transformed by the process of establishing value to be replaced with, "We're trying some new approaches at work - it's an exciting time and I've been able to come up with great contributions that makes our work product more marketable." Employees who establish value for their employers are those who feel a part of the company - these employees are assured of being around for the long term, through thick and thin. I'd be delighted to hear the pros and cons to this position.
