Firstly, you will have to introduce yourself to all the employees working in all divisions and at all locations/branches. Make a point to meet each and every employee in your office and know them individually by their name. Also, you can meet the heads of each division and introduce yourself.
You can do networking with them by having your lunch/tea/snacks with different groups rather than getting along with one group with whom you are comfortable.
Secondly, you need to study and understand the culture of the organization, get acquainted with the policies and procedures of the organization, discuss your observations and learnings with your seniors in order to gain more inputs.
Remember, motivation and building a great culture cannot be done in a day; it will require time. You will have to develop confidence and faith about you in the minds of people. Once this happens, your work will be easier.

Thank you, Sumeet, for your valuable advice. Mine is a small firm, so the introduction part and networking part were not a tough job. Since I have no seniors to consult with, I just don't know where to go next. I have created leave forms, performance appraisal forms, exit interview forms. And I know that building a good work culture is not an easy task. But please give me some directions on how to make one.

Dear Sree,
Once you connect well with your employees, discuss with them on an individual basis about their views on the organization, job profile, career plans, and problems they face at work. If there are specific issues, try to understand them and find solutions for them. You can implement an Employee Grievance Cell, an Open-Door Policy, and design reward policies to recognize and reward high performers in the business. Additionally, this should be done in consultation with a senior authority.

HR does not decide the culture of the organization. The management of the company or the Board of Directors does. Therefore, it is important for you to discuss your views with your management and understand from them about their expectations from the HR. I will help you immensely.

Thank you both for your valuable replies. I had implemented an open-door policy, but my management needs a change in the easy-going nature of employees. That's why I asked about culture, and at the same time, I have to motivate them.

There are some other policies as well such as Travel policy, Local conveyance policy, Leave policy, Company Mobile policy, etc. You need to check for statutory compliance as well, which you will have to follow as per Labour Laws.

Hi Sneha Joshi,
Could you please guide me on how to conduct an HR audit? I believe that motivational programs, recognition programs, and employee retention programs are essentially the same. Please correct me if I am mistaken. Additionally, could you provide examples of motivational programs that are typically carried out in organizations?
Thank you.
