Nine Types Of Employees
There’s a company called Virtuali that helps companies ‘develop and retain millennial leaders,’ which is a phrase that might cause a Boomer to leap through a glass window. One of their co-founders just wrote an article for Harvard Business Review on ‘the two sides of employee engagement,’ and it’s pretty interesting. Before we get to a central takeaway, let’s talk about the how of them working with leaders and organizations.
They work along two prisms — employee perception and self-reported behaviors.
In terms of employee perception, here are the six areas they track:
- Culture
- Job Function
- Advancement
- Company Leadership
- Management
- Total Rewards
Seems logical so far. I’ve mentioned a bit about Total Rewards so far too.
In terms of self-reported behaviors, here’s what they look at:
- Level of effort
- Personal development
- Company loyalty
- Recreation
- Relationships
- Temperament
