Consistent growth policies and strong employee retention are the keys that have lead the company to explore the expansion into new markets. Management says that their open door policy is key factor that plays vital role in turning a problem into an opportunity, which makes an employee feel comfortable to share anything. Each employee’s work appraisal and growth chart are discussed with them in an open environment and good work is rewarded accordingly, which boosts Group’s employee retention, market reputation and customer happiness.
“We have created a culture of open dialogue, respect, listening to the opinion, concerns and suggestions of each employee regardless of his position in any of our entity. Fair treatment creates a family environment. By time we have learnt to turn weaknesses into opportunities. Open door policy is key factor that plays vital role in turning a problem into an opportunity, which makes an employee feel comfortable to share anything,” said Imran Farooq, Chief Executive Officer of Samana Group of companies.
Opportunities for employees’ professional development and incentive plans are motivation factors. Regular performance meetings conducted with employees to make sure that they perform better and they can adjust what they are doing right away to meet goals and increase productivity rather than waiting till the end of the year to find out that they have missed the mark.
Abbas Khalid, the most senior employee of the group, who was hired as Sales Executive and reached to the position of Group Business Development Manager, said: “From the very start I found a supportive and encouraging work environment. I was given ample opportunities to get trained and grow professionally. The management always takes keen interest in employees’ professional development and growth. In addition to proper remuneration, benefits, conducive work environment, the most striking factor to me has been the consistent encouragement and support of management.”
