It del i vers a huge contri buti on to the commi tment of the empl oyees . I give them responsibilities, (=gi vi ng res pons i bi l i ti es) and they feel like they are valuable and actually deliver a added value (=provi di ng recogni ti on) by performi ng thei r job, beca us e I ha ve del ega ted tha t they need to take their own responsiblities.

It i s cl ea r for my compa ny tha t the more space I give them to do their work the more happy they are(=gi vi ng freedom s timul a tes

wel l bei ng of the empl oyee) a nd the more they wa nt to come to

work every da y.

We often s ee the di rect l i nk. We gi ve them space for creativity and independent work(=encoura gi ng i nnova tive thi nki ng) a nd they do thei r job better. As s een on the exa mpl e i n the begi nni ng the empl oyee jus t di d the whol e work fa s ter tha n us ua l l y.

It i s a motiva tion for the s taff a s they known tha t they a re pa rt of the enterpri s e. By a l s o giving them the responsibility

(CODE=Del ega ting/Empowerment) on l es s bus y da ys to l ea d

the enterpri s e on thei r own. I s how them my confi dence a nd thi s i s a a ki nd of rewa rd for thei r good work

ChrisKellersmann_2

i t i s a motiva tion for the s taff. So they know tha t they a re pa rt of the enterpri s e

ChrisKellersmann_3

The dri vers feel like belonging to the firm. Due to the confidence that we give them, the dri ver i s more motiva ted when doi ng hi s work. We also promote new ideas that the staff propose.

(=encoura gi ng i nnova tive thi nki ng) We ca l l thi s "topp tipp".

The dri vers who ma ke propos a l for i mprovement i n the fi el d of production or s uppl y of products , ca n pres ent thei r i dea . If i t ma kes a n economi ca l l y a dva ntage, we rewa rd the dri ver wi th the profi t of the s a vi ng.

In s ome bra nches thi s i s s urel y hel pful , but i our bra nch thi s i s not pos s i bl e. As i mentioned before, the s taff a re dependet on di rectives a nd thi s does not l ea ve them much room for thei r pers ona l devel opment. It mus t be obs erved tha t we s el l medi ca l products i n order to reduce or to remove the hea l th probl ems of the cus tomers . Therefore, i t i s i mportant tha t my col l ea gues keep to the rul e.
