Where is the process is breaking down? • Employee puts suggestion in box • Manager chooses a suggestion of the month We encourage employees to make suggestions by offering prizes and recognition. We trained managers for this program, but don’t offer them prizes or recognition. • Manager reads suggestions • Manager organizes implementation of the suggestion Reading suggestions can be time-consuming.

2 Build (for table) The suggestions are good!
2 Build (for table) The suggestions are good! We lose good candidates we make offers too slowly and they find something else by then. Instead of sending offer proposals to HR, we should have a salary range in advance and let the manager make an offer on the spot, based on his/her budget. In my department, lots of people don’t know how to automate Word or Excel and spend 10 times what they need to on their tasks. Just one knowledgeable person, going around to employees and helping them could save huge amounts of time. We require employees to get the signature of our department head when they want to change desks or make other minor changes, but he isn’t always here and so they have to wait. They hate that. In reality, any one of us could give the approval and get them on their way sooner.

“I have many ideas to improve things around here, but I didn’t feel like they were appreciated, so I stopped making suggestions.” “I’ve lost 2 employees in my department and I’m doing a lot of the extra work myself to avoid losing more people.

Research is clear about necessary components of a suggestion program This lends credibility to the employee suggestion program and makes suggesters feel important. • A senior manager needs to champion the program and sit on the evaluation committee It must have the power to implement suggestions and be willing to ask “why not” rather than “why.” • A cross-functional team must review suggestions & acknowledge them within 48 hours One company had 100+ suggestions stuck in a review committee that kept postponing meetings. • An administrator must make sure the process moves along; if not, it reduces morale Using a trigger to display more information 9
