for whatever reason – or go home earlier than everyone else because they supposedly work from home in the evening – doing so can confuse and demoralize the rest of your staff. They may not know all the other person does – or may simply not believe it – and instead see it as this person getting undeserved special treatment. So what is good for one could negatively impact 10 to 20 or more other people. ❚ ❚ Your facility says a lot about how you view your employees. If all the light bulbs are burned out, your windows are filthy, your reception area is a mess, you have duct tape over the carpet, and your grounds and parking lot are full of trash, you are basically telling your employees that you don’t care about your business and don’t have much respect for them. ❚ ❚ Your firm’s website probably needs attention. I know ours does. They go stale quick- ly. We get so used to them we don’t see their weaknesses. Get some of your younger people to probe every single corner of your site to find dead ends, misspellings, search- ability problems, bad information – everything wrong with it they can. And then devote some resources to fixing those issues as soon as possible. The website is the first place anyone goes who wants more information on your firm and it must represent you well.
