Hari Krishna Diamond Cutting: Retaining Talent in Times of Crisis

內容大綱
In 2014, the production manager at Hari Krishna Exports Pvt. Ltd., a diamond manufacturer and exporter in India, faced the challenge of maintaining his duty towards the company’s employees while it experienced low growth and profitability after a downturn in the industry. High attrition among employees was a common problem across the industry; it cost the company heavily and had a significant impact on employees’ morale. Recruiting strong employees and retaining them was a challenge, especially during a time of crisis. The production manager wanted to build on the initiatives of the chairman and founder and pursue a performance-based incentive system, value-added incentives, and other employee-friendly human resource policies. Could these strategies keep the attrition rate low and help the company create a high-performance work environment? Success could help Hari Krishna Exports in its plan to grow from a diamond manufacturer to a diamond jewelry retailer with a global reach.
