Stop Offshoring
Saturday, September 01, 2007
While the U.S. government continues to advocate letting foreign companies steal American jobs, I read about Korea's New Paradigm Center. The NPC is a government-funded research and consulting organization. They focus on subjects such as "employee training, team building, reducing work hours, increasing organizational trust, raising the level of employee satisfaction and engagement, and improving communication so employees understand their company's goals and precisely what is expected of them" -- aspects of business that American companies have forgotten as greedy executives seek only to pad their own wallets. The results of the NPC have been impressive so far; client companies have increased profits by more than 26% on average. Perhaps American companies should focus more on helping their domestic employees as a means of improving business. The Koreans have shown that it works.
