🌟 Celebrating Success at Harry International Private Limited 🌟 We're thrilled to announce an exciting milestone at Harry International! In our relentless pursuit of excellence and employee satisfaction, we've recently implemented a Cash Bonus system that complements our already robust incentive and increment programs. 💼 *Leadership in Action* Our very own manager Trideep Trivedi have set the bar high, leading by example as they've smashed the targets necessary to secure this substantial Cash Bonus. It's no small feat, and as the adage goes: "Leaders don't just meet expectations; they exceed them and inspire their teams to do the same." 🏆 *Rewarding Excellence* This initiative isn't just about numbers; it's about people. It's a testament to our belief that our employees are the cornerstone of our success. We're proud to offer an opportunity for our team members to earn an additional ₹25,000 on top of their salaries and incentives. 👥 *Why Harry International Stands Out* At Harry International, we understand something fundamental that seems to elude half the industry: businesses are built on the dedication and hard work of their employees—not solely on services or client relationships. The true essence of any company is its workforce, the very 'blood and sweat' of those who toil day and night for growth and success. 👩💼👨💼 *Our Priority: Our People* We prioritize employees with a fiery passion for propelling Harry International forward, contributing with both their hearts and their intellect. This philosophy is why we're not just different; we lead the market. 📈 *The Result? Unparalleled Growth* Such systems of recognition and reward underscore our position as the number one choice in the market. After all, a company that values its employees above all else is a company destined for greatness. *"Take care of your employees, and they'll take care of your business. It's as simple as that." - Richard Branson* Join us in celebrating this achievement and the continued success of our incredible team. Here's to setting benchmarks, achieving goals, and most importantly, to our employees who make it all possible! #HarryInternational #EmployeeFirst #CashBonusSuccess #LeadershipExcellence #IncentivesThatInspire #RewardingDedication #CareerGrowth #WeValueOurPeople #IndustryLeaders #SettingTheStandard

The largest and most successful corporations on the planets invest millions in staff training. And there is an important word in that statement... invest! At every size and every level, all companies and Clubs need to invest in staff training, IF they want to continue improving. Listen to the biggest names in industry: "train them well enough that they're able to leave, treat them well enough that they won't want to leave." "Look after your staff and they will look after your customers". As leaders, we must push our Clubs to see the importance of providing continued training to all staff, and ensure our individuals and teams are the best they can be! #training #development #team #invest #bethebest 59club UK 59club Middle East and Africa

In my previous post, I asked you to take some time to celebrate yourself and your accomplishments over the past year. So often, we spend the holidays celebrating our colleagues and team members that we forget to do the same for ourselves. In that post, you had a few journal prompts to help you reflect & celebrate the past year of your life as CEO. Internal validation is crucial as a leader, as we don’t always receive validation from those around us. After all, when you’re a CEO there aren’t as many true peers compared to other employees. And quite frankly, not having that validation, not having people who support and celebrate you, can be difficult. It’s lonely at the top. In fact, this is why I became a Vistage Chair and formed Nashville Execs. During my 20 years of working in the corporate world, I consistently saw c-suite executives who lacked support. Our Vistage groups bridge that gap. We meet one day each month to talk all things life and business. No, we don’t just do water cooler talk. We dive in deep to the obstacles you’re encountering as a leader and within your business. It’s your opportunity to get both the collaboration and challenge you need to take yourself and your company to the next level. Interested in learning more? Send me a message and let’s talk!

Life begins at 40!

Late to post, last Friday our Leadership team came together for our monthly Leadership meeting. Always taking the time to develop our team, and Inspect what we Expect. It was Shoppers report review as well. Huge shout out to so many of our teams for delivering an exceptional first visit for new prospects. After shopping some big competitive brands in TX, OK, MO, and NWA, I have to say. I’m so glad we regularly inspect what we expect. Here’s some entertaining laughs from shopping some big brand competitors….I won’t say the brands names. But the responses caused some laughs. 1. “What’s this Red Light therapy you offer?” - dazed and cofused gym employee: “it’s the new tanning with no heat” 🤪 2. In regards to a CryoLounger in a recovery room - “what’s this?” - Clueless employee: “it’s a massage chair”. 😜 3. The anti sales person of a huge brand - “don’t join this club, we have a much better one down the street, go there” 🤷♂️ 4. GlenGarry Glen Ross sales person - “join for 24 months and you’ll save $xxx.”, me: “but what if I need to cancel”, “just come see me, I got ya”. 😂 5. Me upon walking in: “I’d like to see the club and get pricing” - Front desk human placeholder: “it’s not my job, leave your keys here so I know you won’t steal a dumbbell and go walk around.” No DGW, nothing! Upon returning from my self lead tour…”how much are memberships?”. Front desk human placeholder: “you can go online.” 🤪 6. “There’s no members in this Recovery Room, do people use it?”, Employee response: “actually I’ve only seen our employee in here on break.” 😴 7. “How come there’s only 2 Group Exercise classes today if y’all have 7000 members.’, (during the tour we were told 7000.) General Managers response… “the Group ex people don’t like to work and we go by their schedule”. 🤪😜😝 Inspect what you Expect! Always! So happy to work daily with a team committed to Excellence in learning & Development and implementation.

Sign us up for the Ally Pally... Well not quite, but it was great to be a winner alongside Richard Stoddart at the Manchester darts championship. Of course I'm exaggerating. It was a healthy competition between friends and colleagues at the very new Black Cat Club (highly recommend) after a long day our Redmoor Health exec team had together in the city. I've known and worked with Richard for yonks and of course we made a great team 😁 We also play golf together, joined by Marc Schmid. In my case I use the term 'play golf' very loosely 😂 But why is it important to socialise with colleagues? 😊 enhances teamwork, if we feel connected to our colleagues we're more cooperative and collaborative which can lead to us being more effective and efficient 😎 it breaks down formal barriers and gives us a more relaxed environment to communicate more openly. 😊 it helps to build a network of supportive colleagues 🤔 it's an opportunity to share ideas and thoughts that might not be discussed in formal meetings or a business environment, helping us all to be more innovative 😊 it can make the workplace more enjoyable, meaning we're more likely to feel engaged and positive about our role 😊 you can make new friends for life - plenty of my ex-colleagues are full-time friends A positive culture at an organisation is crucial. Many people spend more time with colleagues than anyone else, often under pressure and in stressful situations. We work hard at Redmoor for colleagues to feel included, supported and valued by each other and that's a key part of our recruitment too, choosing people that fit with our values and ethos, that want to be part of our journey. I don't think we'll be getting a call to join the world darts champion but a win's a win and we have the evidence, so me and Richard are taking it 🎉 #teamwork #darts #manchester #primarycare Matt Murphy Dan Hodges Kieran Waterston Helen Holmes-Fogg Lisa Drake Lisa Williamson Matt Sweeney

I’m speaking in this panel. If you work in development (or FCDO) and are interested in coaching - let me know what I should be saying!
