A special lecture on "Employee Engagement : Harnessing human capital for better performance",on 15th April,2015

The human resource is an integral part of any business unit. It is like a capital or assets of the organization. Any business functions, whether it is an operation & supply chain management, marketing management, financial management, or information technology management without human resources, we cannot achieve our business and organizational objectives.  In short, we can say that without human aspects not even single function will not possible to achieve organizational goals in the workplace. But we have always mentioned it in our balance sheet as part of liability side and most of the time we have neglected the human aspects. Most of the organizations, employer tries to exploit their employees and as they called human resources is not to be considered as an asset. The question is here that what are assets?  You will agree with me that assets are “any things that the creation of our wealth”.  For example, if you have lands, properties, infrastructures, technologies, etc., these are considered to be assets which multiple creation of wealth for you. Similarly, human resources create wealth for the organization.  If you look around in your organization anything’s that comes to your eyes that has been created by human beings and even technological advancement is also created by human beings. Therefore, we can say that human resources are assets or capital for the organization, if you select the employees having the right attitude, the right skills, and mange these talents in an effective manner.  

The objectives of the human resources management is to maximum utilization of human resources  and enhance better performance of employees, which further leads to profit, growth and productivity for the organization. Employer’s always expected from their employees to do more in comparison what they provide in terms of compensation and benefits in exchange for their employment and contract work. On the other hand employees expected from their employer’s to give best compensations and benefits, to develop the human resources through training and development, treat them as human beings and established relationship to seek better cooperation with each other, to fulfill their basic, psychological and social needs, in exchange for what they are doing in terms of their nature of duties, work and responsibility. Therefore, it has been observed that when a mismatch between these expectations and needs  of the employees and employer’s generate conflict, politics, dissatisfaction in job, high attrition, low work motivation, absenteeism, lack organizational  commitment, disengaged, lack of job involvement  lack of organizational citizenship behavior in the organization which directly impact on organizational performance. As a result, employees start intentionally doing poorly in their performance.

Today’s generation employees have different needs and expectations and it changes very rapidly. Therefore, human resource practitioners always look for various alternatives and suggest to the employer’s for better organizational performance. In management research, there are several strategies are available, but employee engagement is one of the variables  that it is very important factors to find solution for several problems, especially better performance of the employees.
