Ride the wave of employee empowerment

According to Thomas A Potterfield, many organizational theorists and practitioners regard employee empowerment as one of the most important and popular management concepts of our time. In today's dynamic work environment, to ensure success, organizations must focus on employee empowerment.

In the book Empowerment Takes More Than a Minute, the authors, Ken Blanchard, John P. Carlos, and Alan Randolph, illustrate three keys that organizations can use to open the knowledge, experience, and motivation power that people already have. The three keys that managers must use to empower their employees are:

  1. Share information with everyone
  2. Create autonomy through boundaries
  3. Replace the old hierarchy with self-managed teams

With advancement in technology, it has become easier to address one of the most important aspects of employee empowerment i.e sharing of information.

Gone are the days where policies would be made by the HR and an employee would know about it only after she/he is fined. The modern day employee portals used by most organizations across the world allow employees to log in to the centralized data system and view the HR policies, latest announcements etc. These portals also allow employee self service wherein an employee can view his payslips, check statements, claim expense, see leave balances, apply for leave, etc.

Most of these systems come with inbuilt communication tools that trigger mails and alerts as pending requests, status of request etc. This way, both the employee and the HR save important time. Such portals also help in creating a transparent working environment. Employees are aware of the policies being implemented, and help organizations in engaging and build involvement of their employees.

greytHR Employee portal is one such tool that enables employees to access their information, online and on demand. It helps in reducing the productive time spent in interacting with the HR teams for accessing information. The tool has proved to be a great timesaver for more than 1000 organizations across industry verticals.

The Greytip Online employee portal also comes with a bundle of features such as IT calculator, IT declaration, proof of investment, expense claims submission, online leave card, reminders and alerts etc. which not only ease the HR’s job, but help reduce a lot of non-productive transaction time spent by employees.

And eventually, this backs most of the areas which are essential to empower employees.
