To stay relevant, stay connected to the youngsters
Stay united
While you expect your employees to stick around in tough times of the company, you should also aim at giving them strong support in their dip moments. As an organisation, we must stand together to fight it out as one and this will instigate us in delivering great results. Ratan Tata backed this philosophy and addressed the leaders, “We can all unite and we need to unite to find solutions and put an end to this crisis.”
Be available for your employees
Tata is one of the most employee-friendly companies in India and no doubt about that because Ratan Tata believes in the policy of being answerable to the employees as well. He shared, “As a business leader, you have to face your shareholders. And then, there are the people who have to deliver the goods and work for you, you need to be there for them as well.”
Create empathy
Laying off is not a solution
The lockdown led to several people losing their jobs. Despite the prime minister requesting businesses to not lay off people, most or the organisations laid off employees in big numbers. Ratan Tata believed in sticking to his people. He asked leaders, “Is laying off people going to solve the problem ? It won’t” and suggested to believe in their people in these tough times. He added, “Companies need to react in the right way for the people who serve & work with them.”
