The importance of likability in all professions

Human touch is a sheer necessity to co-exist in a social stage. Especially, a workplace needs an ambiance of positivism that acts as a factor to drive enthusiasm among co-workers and team members. Without such environment, workplaces become clogged with communication lapses, which become the reason for failure of execution of operations. If not a failure, glitches in processes are inevitable. What is the aspect that turns a workplace to be with blended with positivism and the vibe to work? The answer is ‘Likability’. This characteristic in any professional or individual can induce a positive vibe in others and motivate them towards themselves. Currently, as workplaces are stuffed with people from diverse ethnic background, hailing from different locations across the world, human touch is a factor, which is quite impactful in uniting them as a team.

Credibility to be liked is of much importance in any profession. This is the warmth in human behavior that works as a lubricant to frictions in professional relationships. However, ‘Likability’ should not be confused with the propensity to take sides for personal gain or to get ‘relieved’ from responsibilities. Mutual respect, behavior, mindset and thought process are the prime factors that determines Likability of a person. In the same time, these features also define the personality of an individual. Therefore, it is observable that personality has a lot more to do with likeability of a person. However, there are a number of subtle differences between the two. Personality is about the ingrained characteristics of an individual. Likeability is more about what others expect of a person. In addition to this, personality is harder to change and it requires much time to get accustomed to an environment. In contrast to this, likability can be achieved in a short time within a professional environment. This only requires the quality to act and response to others in appropriate times.

Emotional Intelligence is an aspect that triggers likeability. It is found out that emotional conduct is helpful in workplace as they help in productivity. Emotionally intelligent persons are prone to be liked by others. Positivity, self-awareness, empathy and social skills are the basics of emotional intelligence. These are also the features, which help to maintain a good social environment.

Likability is a success mantra across various industry verticals. It is not only impactful in workplace, but also across various industries and professions such as marketing, business development and sales. In business development, success is not merely dependent on the product; it is more a factor of an approach to the product. This, in turn is dependent on the attitude of the person who represents the product and eventually Likability of the person becomes a pivotal element for the transaction. Many a times, this feature of Likability turns out to be the only driving factor for success in sales and marketing.

It is an observable fact that in workplace personal feelings and attitudes are becoming more important than competence. A person who is an expert may be approached by anybody, but if the same person does not know how to behave properly, people would have to think twice before the act. As a result of this very situation, the person would have difficulties in dealing with others and receive those ‘professional favors’. Contrary to this, if a person keeps positive attitude towards anybody, enthusiastic and is ever ready to help, he or she will find less difficulties in dealing with people and vice versa. Friendliness, Relevance and Realness are the aspects that define likability of a person. The ability to communicate, integrity of thoughts and authenticity of emotions makes a person likable. Likability becomes a success factor, as these characters in a person are the primary requirement of quality professionalism.

Likability plays a major role in being hired. In addition to skills and competency, personal traits such as behavior and attitude become the major determinants. The prominence of Likability can be observed from the fact that, a skillful person who is arrogant has less chance to be hired than an incompetent person who is lovable. This is because teamwork and collaborated tasks have gained prominence in modern work space and personality rather than skills plays the quintessential role.

Higher the position of a person upon the hierarchy, greater is the need of likability. Managers who are likable can convince the team about the strategy and drive them towards the objectives. The same is with advisers and higher positions in the circle such as VPs and Chief Officers. More likable a person is more is his or her potential to win confidence of the decision makers. While a person is speaking, people are more inclined towards the arguments and the way the topic is presented rather than what is being delivered in reality. This sheds lights on the importance of personality of the speaker more than what is being spoken.

Likability has psychological implications. When the ingrained traits of a team are directed towards a common goal, it becomes easier to achieve the objectives. Likability of a person induces positive traits on group behavior and hence renders a workplace a better environment. This is important across any profession because it gets the work done more than anything else does. To break the barrier of human mind and ego is the toughest job. What likability does is eliminating these very obstacles as the primal  step of a relationship.

Why employers should care about health and wellness

A sound body is the key to a sound mind. Health is compared to wealth and the truth in this analogy is pertinent. To perform well in a workplace, a person must be physically healthy at the first place. Only physical health ensures mental wellness, which in turn assures productive performance. For employers, health and wellness of employees is ought to be a primary concern. Corporate health wellness programs are gradually becoming a common adoption in companies. The benefits of such initiatives are quite apparent in the overall productivity and profit of a business. Wellness programs not only define responsibility of an employer to their employees, but also bring out a sense of good feeling and care towards them. Some of the reasons why employers should care about health and wellness of employees are listed out in the following discussion.

Health and Wellness are the Parameters of productivity

Workplace productivity is interrelated to physical well being of employees. There are no ways to make an employee work if he or she is physically sick and unable to perform. This has an adverse effect on workplace and overall output of the process. Work absentee means either the task is stagnated or it is allocated to another executive. If the work is halted, the overall process is affected. In most of the processes, tasks are pipelined as consecutive operations on a same document or program. Hence, if a particular operation is halted, the next task cannot be processed. This means, the process will be affected, which will in return affect the output or productivity. Thus, an occasional absentee can led to a huge damage to the business. To avoid such conditions, the best employers could do is to take care of their employees. On the other hand, work leaves taken on medical grounds are longer and generally more than a day or two. Such situation proves to be a real concern in any business process.

Physical Wellness insures Productive work

As psychological or mental balance is a factor of physical health, an unhealthy person will never be able to execute a task with competence. On the contrary, working with an unsound health is always prone to mistakes and errors. To insure proper execution of any task, an employee must be physically fit, which insures mental fitness. A process where employees are healthy is sure to perform better than a process which is stuffed with ailing people. Therefore, employers must emphasis on physical well-being of their employees in order to ascertain profitable work and therefore the profitable business.

Caring about Health and Wellness is a great motivation for employees

When an employer cares about health and wellness of employees, it propagates a motivation and a sense of responsibility towards the company or the organization. It is an extra bonus for employees that make them more inclined to their organization and give their best at work. When a company invests on health and wellness programs for employees, it motivates them towards their work and responsibilities. Such endeavors also help in employee retention and in pooling better workforce from the market. Further, health and wellness programs are not only associated with physical well being of employees. These programs also relate to mental wellness such as stress relief, behavioral challenges and communication. Programs such as meditation and yoga are quite popular in corporations because apart from taking care of physical aspects, they also include psychological and mental wellness.

Health and Wellness programs incorporated by employers are great benefits for employees. These programs not only make them healthy and rejuvenated, but also propagate a healthy lifestyle. In current times, chronic diseases are the major ailment for majority of people. Since, an employee is associated with the workplace throughout the day; its impact on health is eminent. On the other hand, when employers endeavor for health and well-being of employees, they grow more conscious about their health. This changes their lifestyle turning them to be healthier than before.

Moreover, it is an ethical responsibility of employers to provide health and wellness amenities for employees. Employees being dependent on their job dedicate most of their times to companies or the employer. On the other hand, without a work force, it will be impossible for any organization to survive. Employers ought to fulfill the economic necessities of the employees. In addition to this, they are to take care about health and wellness of employees too. This brings out multiple advantages for a company as well as its employees. It drives more profit as it leverage productivity of employees and the process as a whole. The overall output of any business process is dependent on performance of the workers. On the other hand, performance is dependent on health and psyche of employers. This is the reason why employers should particularly emphasize on health and well-being of employees in any organization.

Make your belief system and your will power so strong, that no hurdles can dare to break it, Said by AK Mishra.

Tips and suggestions for employed parents to have healthy work life balance

Family work-balance is a complex issue which involves day to day demands in professional front as well as in personal front. It is even more complex for the working parents who have to juggle with multiple hands to fulfill the various demands at working place and then have to cope up with kids’ schooling activities and other family demands as well. In the age of busy lifestyles, parents spend lot of energy trying to manage their time more effectively. Hence, we would like to share our suggestions to provide parents a well-balanced life between their work and their kids’ demands.

1.       Flexibility of Timings in Office: Flexibility of timings is major requirement for working parents who need to attend the basic needs of their children, as well as to engage in activities that enhance their children’s academic performance, emotional and social well-being.

Two types of flexible work practices seem especially well suited to parents who work: flextime arrangements that allow parents to coordinate their work schedules with their children’s school schedules, and policies that allow workers to take short periods of time off—a few hours or a day or two—to attend a parent-teacher conference, or care for a child who has suddenly fallen ill. Many companies that have instituted such policies have benefited through employees’ greater job satisfaction and employee retention.

2.       Organizations can also help parents in providing quality time to their kids when highly requisite by allowing them to work from home. This would enable working parents to meet their job responsibilities and to build strong relationships with their children as well.

3.       Special time period of 15-20 minutes should be allotted to the parents to have telephonic conversation or Skype call with the kids at a particular time when children reach home from their schools.

4.        Instead of parents rushing for the parents’ teacher meetings, school should make such kind of arrangements in which they can have healthy conversation about the kid through Skype call, which in turns will help parents to save few hours which they can dedicate in fulfilling their official tasks. 

5.           Parents should keep their kids under supervision to avoid any kind of unpredictable happening. For this, parents should keep in touch with the driver of the school bus and also can put micro cameras on the school bags of kids to be assured that the kid has reached home safely.

6.       Beside this, parents should keep their kids involved with other activities as well to keep their day busy, such as dance classes, swimming classes or other outdoor sports activities.
