At Impraise, we believe that employees are people too. In fact, we don’t want to use the term employee anymore. Why? Because we believe that referring to people as just “employees” is too simple.
If you take the time to think about it, the traditional relationship or view of employer/employee seems very binary. As soon as you use those terms, a power dynamic appears, where one person has control over the other. Yet, is that really the way it is in modern workplaces? At the end of the day, aren’t we all just people?
Thinking people first means seeing them as individuals and for who they really are. Understanding what motivates them, why they come to work every day, what they want to contribute to the company... And more importantly start asking yourself how you can help them achieve that?
