How do I overcome challenges to achieve my ambitions in life ?
It was my first job in a captive power plant in a colliery mine. The culture there was very different which I had never experienced before. I was assigned Safety Improvement project for the power plant which would involve all employees right from people in the shop-floor to the higher management. During the brainstorming sessions for the project, I found some employees were not so motivated and many couldn't express their viewpoint clearly. Others, who seemed knowledgeable, demanded for the rewards which they had not received for the ideas they had generated for previous projects and hence refused to get involved. I assured them that they would get rewarded if they implement their idea successfully. I myself implemented 2 -3 Kaizens related to the project which set an example before them & slowly it motivated them to participate in the process. To ensure full transparency, I logged the project online and gave each & every employee’s name against his improvement ideas. I gave them more responsibility to make them feel more valued and gave them resources & full freedom to implement their own ideas so that they are satisfied with their implementation. I facilitated them & helped them whenever they were not able to proceed. After audit of the implemented tasks was done, they were rewarded with gift coupons by the Improvement department. Finally I was able to instil faith in my employees .
