Always About People

At Morphos, we understand it is always about people

Families, Corporations, Non-profits, Business Partnerships, Sales Teams, Manufacturing Line, etc…

At the core… it is about people like you and I.

  • “Organisations Don’t Innovate, People Do!” – M.Ditkoff
  • “The way your employees feel is the way your customers will feel. And if your employees don’t feel valued, neither will your customers.” – Sybil F. Stershic
  • “Everything rises and falls on leadership” – John C Maxwell
  • “Companies with engaged employees outperform those without by up to 202%” – Dale Carnegie
  • “What can you do to promote world peace? Go home and love your family” – Mother Teresa

The question that begs asking… do we really know people?

  • Most business leaders think that financial rewards drive performance
    • Our Response: To a certain extent, yes. But do also consider how recognition and flexible work arrangements may contribute to retaining staff and minimising burnout
  • Some business leaders believe the larger the team, the better the performance
    • Our Response: Yes, provided you can manage the conflicts arising from increased diversity, and ensure that no one is loafing around
  • Some managers think that people management is the HR’s job
    • Our Response: If you have a strong HR they can take care of the legal and admin requirements, they might also put in place practices to ensure workers are hired for the right fit, but day-to-day people management is the job of the line manager. You can observe performance, give timely feedback and rectify behaviours more effectively than HR
