MBA 530 GROW Model Template Name: Nick Roy Date: 7/16/2023 7:36 PM; 8/6/2023 Updated Identified Trends 1. Training and Development: “My Supervisor talks with me to help me determine my training and development goals.” The data here are already low and trending downward over the last four years. 2. Working Conditions: There is a lack of trust for management because employees feel management is acting unethically. 3. Recognition and Praise: “I feel encouraged to come up with new and better ways of doing things” and “My work gives me a sense of personal accomplishment” are two areas seeing downward trends over the last four years. This signifies that leaders are not communicating job performance to their employees. Employee Survey Results Data 0 50 100 150 200 250 300 Employee Survey Results Series1 Series2 Series3

Focus Areas 1. Working Conditions: One of the key responsibilities is to ensure that all employees have a safe work environment. Unfortunately, there are times when companies neglect to update their working conditions, putting their employees at great risk. This poses a danger to both the employees and the entire organization. Poor safety conditions can cause accidents and injuries to associates, which can be a nightmare for company management and can also tarnish the company's reputation in the market. 2. Recognition and Praise: Recognizing employees’ hard work and dedication is a powerful motivator that lifts their morale and drives their performance. Employees who feel appreciated are more likely to stay motivated and engaged and are more likely to work hard. This, in turn, leads to increased productivity and improved work quality. A well-deserving employee will always appreciate their work being recognized, which leads to more excellent performance and inspires others to follow suit. 3. Training and Development: When it comes to running a business, every CEO or small business owner knows that employees are one of the most valuable assets. There always seems to be a disconnect between what the company seems to be providing and what the employees perceive to be receiving. Providing your employees with the necessary support and training can make a significant difference in their performance and productivity. This employer says that they care about their employees, then this area should be one of the primary responsibilities for making sure their employees are trained and prepared for their specific roles and responsibilities. Employees are feeling that they are not being sufficiently trained to their jobs to the best of their abilities. Managers taking the time to teach their employees to do their job correctly can lead to improved job satisfaction scores. Reality—Current State 1. Working Conditions: The overall survey stated that the current working conditions are actually very clean and safe. Employees feel the leadership team is unethical leading to a lack of trust with management. Most of the staff members felt that they could not trust their supervisor or do not feel supported within their job roles. Employees do not feel they can make suggestions or file a complaint without fear of retaliation. If working conditions continue to get worse employees can be hurt on the job that can cause downtime and expensive insurance expenses for the employee and employer.

2. Recognition and Praise: According to the survey data, even though the employees feel that they have the clearly defined quality goals to reach and the tools and resources to do their job, they don't feel they any sense of personal accomplishment because of the lack of communication between the managers and employees. Employees say that their supervisors do not show any appreciation for the work that they do. 3. Training and Development: Proper training needs to be implemented within the company. Employees are feeling left out of their work development plan by the leadership team. The managers are not guiding employees with the correct training or future development goals. Employees do not feel they have been properly trained within their current job duties. Without proper training employees cannot feel job satisfaction. Job satisfaction was a large area that can be approved upon with proper guidance and training. Teaching associates how to do their job correctly will increase production, lower the risk of injury, and create a more positive employee outlook. Desired Future State—Where Would You Like to Be? 1. Working Conditions: One way of fostering better communication is to implement employee suggestion programs. By providing a mechanism for staff to express their ideas and feedback, business leaders can receive constructive input and enhance decision-making. Furthermore, when employees have a voice, feel heard, and are supported in their endeavors, they are more likely to provide the company with loyalty, dedication, and enthusiasm that translates into better performance and more satisfied clients. 2. Recognition and Praise: Recognizing employees’ hard work and dedication is a powerful motivator that lifts their morale and drives their performance. Employees who feel appreciated are more likely to stay motivated and engaged and are more likely to work hard. This, in turn, leads to increased productivity and improved work quality. A well-deserving employee will always appreciate their work being recognized, which leads to more excellent performance and inspires others to follow suit. Recognizing employees is not just about reminding them that they are appreciated, it's a way to inspire creativity and foster continued growth. When employees are praised for their contributions, they feel more confident and are more likely to take risks and try new things. This encourages innovation and helps in generating new ideas, which is essential for a company’s growth and success. Recognizing employees’ hard work and contributions is a small thing that can have a big impact. It can lead to improved employee satisfaction scores, but also employees will want to talk more positively about working here, leading to an increase in recruiting more qualified employees.
