Human Resource Management! .........hmmm. How do you blend your coffee?
Is it the standard coffee machine which comes with a premix of
coffee, milk and sugar and available at one press of a button? Does this coffee
you love? I hope not. At least the coffee lovers won’t.
Similarly, would you want people in your team in the same way as coffee? Every person has the same calibre, capacity, attitude and weaknesses. Even if you try, it won’t work.
Coffee lovers want their coffee to be the blend for a unique taste like the business leaders want their team to achieve unique results.
Coffee
requires being blend at the right pressure and right temperature.Many people boil the coffee while it only needs to be hot enough you want to drink and they spoil the taste of the coffee.Remember, the pressure is more important than temperature. You can get desired taste from each coffee bean.
If, an employee goes through the right amount of pressure
(Work motivation) and right temperature (Never get too angry and use harsh
words), he can bring the desired results. Any time the pressure or temperature is
not rightly matched. Coffee spoils the taste and so the employee.
Coffee has a different taste but when it is mixed with sugar or milk it can give even a variety of tastes. So, the employee in the team motivated and blends and mixed in the right way can achieve various targets.
Even the best coffee bean, not blend in the right pressure, temperature
or not mixed with the right amount of sugar and milk may spoil your coffee.
Being a coffee lover, you should know what taste you want in
your coffee and use the right blend. So, the business leaders should know what they want to achieve
and utilize the talent in the right way in the right team to get the desired results.
Enjoy your coffee. cheers!
