Josh Drean: 我一直致力于帮助人们充分发挥潜能。这源于我早期在哈佛创新实验室创办初创公司时的经验,我们当时率先进行了实时情绪分析,以了解员工的需求,并帮助公司更好地满足这些需求。我发现,传统的就业模式未能充分释放员工的潜能,因为它更关注股东价值而非员工发展。因此,我开始关注如何重塑工作场所,让员工能够在工作中茁壮成长。这不仅关乎激励,更关乎灵感。激励能促使员工签约,但灵感才能让他们每天都充满动力地回到工作岗位。 我认为,公司文化并非简单的政策或口号,而是一种感受,是关怀的体现。许多公司对员工体验设计只是说说而已,真正的文化在于了解员工的体验并解决问题。现代员工,尤其是Z世代,希望工作能够带来目的感,并希望公司能够解决工作中的痛点。他们不只为薪水工作,他们希望参与其中,并建立双向沟通的关系。 Work 3 Institute 正是基于这样的理念而成立的,我们帮助公司将新兴技术与员工战略相结合,以实现以人为本的数字化转型。我们的10项运营原则代表了现代员工的不可谈判的需求,包括透明度、自主权和所有权。我们看到,注重以人为本,关注员工,才能打造高绩效团队。 我认为,AI与人性相结合是创造理想工作场所解决方案的关键。公司应该利用AI来增强员工能力,而不是将其视为替代人类的工具。未来成功的公司将是那些利用AI来提升员工能力并实现共同目标的公司。我们应该利用技术来简化重复性工作,让员工专注于领导力发展,发挥其在家庭、社区中的领导才能。 在雇主市场,公司不应该忽视员工体验,而应该提升员工体验。因为当“大辞职2.0”来临,那些不重视员工体验的公司可能会被淘汰。传统的就业模式已经过时,我们需要转向去中心化的工作模式,赋能员工。只有这样,才能真正释放员工的潜能,创造更美好的工作环境。 Mick Hunt: 领导者领导的是公司文化,而文化才是真正驱动公司成功的因素。文化是一种感受,是关怀(CARE)的体现,而不是简单的政策或口号。激励员工签署合同,而灵感才能让他们每天都回来工作。公司需要将员工的工作与他们的个人目标联系起来,因为员工可以随时自主创业。 现代员工更看重工作的目的性而非其他因素。麦肯锡的研究表明,76%的员工更看重工作的目的性。我们应该利用技术来简化重复性工作,让员工专注于领导力发展。公司应该利用技术来处理日常事务,让员工能够专注于发挥领导才能。 在雇主市场,公司不应该忽视员工体验,而应该提升员工体验。只有37%的员工感到受到尊重,这表明公司在尊重员工方面做得不够。我们需要转向去中心化的工作模式,赋能员工。
