Knowing who your company’s employees are on a personal level is just as important as knowing who they are on a professional level. So considering things to learn about your employees is a good place to start.
If an employee has good personal values, it will certainly show in their work habits and performance.
Five Things To Pay Attention To:
Problem Solutions
How does each employee solve common and not so common problems in the workplace? Does the employee keep a cool head while in the solving process? Solving problems are a big part of every job and having skilled problem solvers in the workplace is a valuable asset and should be looked upon and appreciated as such.
Job Attitude
It is desirable for every employer to have workers that know what they are doing. Some employees may have just been hired and you will need to pick out things to learn about your employees. And if they are visually enthusiastic about learning everything there is to know about their particular job, this person will go far.
Work Ethic
For an employee to be successful, their attitude must reflect upon a good work ethic. The employee’s ethic helps keep the morale up for their fellow co-workers as well. One thing to look for is what type of people the employee in question corresponds with the most. For those with a good overall attitude about most things within the work place, they will most likely be in friendly relations with like-minded people.
Conflict Resolution
How the employee deals with conflicts inside the work place is one thing that reveals their overall attitude. Does this particular employee deal with multiple work place relation conflicts? If so, then why? Does this employee get along with just about everyone they come into contact with? How they resolve minor professional conflicts will also give you a perspective as to how they will fare in more serious conflict resolutions.
Work Quality
During their day, pay attention and observe how the employee performs their job and completes projects. It can be any type of project according to what position they are in. The quality of the finished material is an important factor in seeing what their overall work ethic is. If their work is of poor quality, this gives opportunity for evaluation and possible betterment of the questioned employee’s work in the future.
When picking out things to learn about your employees, make sure they reflect what your company is all about. If there are questions that you would like
