What would make your work feel more meaningful?

For my team members to take on a more entrepreneurial attitude as they go about their workday. We need to have a greater sense of ownership and commitment in what we do. We also need to be held accountable for our actions and inaction. Employees just sliding by are a problem for all large companies, not just for this department or specific business.

How could the company better encourage new ideas?

In my workgroup, a job rotation policy after two or three years would truly keep everyone on her/his toes. This movement and exchange/re-arranging of talent would create new ideas and fresh perspective. It would also encourage a sense of adventure which could make the workday more fun. Fun is underrated in corporate culture.

Thank you for participating in the survey.
