And yes … crises, the problems in the local and world economy. There are still persons who decide to resign from the work. The majority, since it is logical, the first they look for a new employment, but others go away, without warning…

Today to retain to the persons who work  at companies or our teams, it is a problem. Even more if we are not provided with budget. Nevertheless, I believe that not always the money is the solution at the moment of retaining them

It is better work in prevention …

If we ask in general why the personnel voluntarily leaves a work, probably they will listen to one or all the following answers:

- The relation of the employee with his chief or manager is disfunctional.
- The employee does not feel  valued.
- The employee does not feel that his talent is being used.
- The employee does not have any way of measuring his success or progress.

Ok, these motives are important, but  not the only ones I want to speak on something less conventional.

Let’s evaluate the following alternative, I believe that the people resign from his work it is because, they cannot see the union / relation between the work that do and the future that they imagine and want for them.

When poeple understands that his work helps them to carry out his personal dreams he does not resign.

If we look at the employee of any company it is possible to see two ends of the labor commitment: the very awkward one and the one that wants to resign but it does not do it (he is looking for a new job). But: what is the difference between this employees?

Is it the work that they do? No, there are the people with slightly qualified works that have so much commitment, as the one that does a very specializing work. The nature of the work does not produce the commitment for itself.

Is it the of salary / payment that they receive? No, it is not any money quantity  be able to guarantee the commitment.

Is it the intellectual level? Not, in fact, it departs from the most intelligent people it is the one that minor labor commitment has.

Then: what is the difference? The highly awkward personnel has the vision of because they work.

Some of them work to improve his numbers of sales, to obtain that bonus (extra pay), so that they could take a few better holidays, change the car or arrange the house.
It is his dream, his vision and that supports them in his work places, makes them focused in the work. Neither the task, nor the money, but his dream.

Others, they have a vision for his career and work very much to obtain the following promotion, which them is going to put a step closer to his dream. The dream hires them. Not the work. Not the title that they have or the one for that look. It is his dream. (perhaps to give to his children all the things that it never had).

It is not our work that hires us, not even money or the things that our work brings to our lives … But our dream it does.

We must be capable of understand what motivates the members of our team  (leaving aside the basic needs), to be able to help them and to commit themselves with his work.

Is this possible??
