Hi Rishikesh
Total Employee Involvement (TEI) activities are the most effective means for motivating the employees. When the employees of Sense of Belonging, their motivation level will be high.
Here are few examples for TEI Activities:
a) Employees Suggestion Scheme: This is for individuals. Employees can suggest improvements in processes, quality, cost etc. They will be rewarded based on the potential savings out of their contribution. We can also have best suggestor of the month, best suggestor for the year etc.
b) Quality Control Circles (QCC): Operators of a particular department/area will form a circle which will be facilitated by a supervisor. This is the most popular model practiced by Japanese Companies. Work related issues will be taken up these circles and break through will be achieved. Similar to Suggestion Scheme, we can have best QCC of the month & year. Opportunity to participate in International QC conventions are also high in this.
c) Supervisory Improvement Team (SIT): Group of supervisors/executives will form a team and take up some improvement projects.
d) Cross Functional Teams (CFT): If the issue needs involvement of executives from various functions, CFTs will be formed. It also function like SITs.
e) Task Force: For break through issues/Policy issues, Task force is constituted. Normally Task force comprises the members of Senior Management Crew.
Other than the above, you can have Employee & Employees family get together functions to motivate them. Few examples are:
a) Domestic Safety Training for Employees spouse.
b) Annual Sports meet for employees & their families
c) Company Day celebrations
d) Contact programmes for Employees families.
e) Recognizing employees & family members for their achievements in House magazine etc.
