Eureka !!

I went recently to DHL corporate office in Bandra. Wonderful office, swanky interiors, sparkling floors, bright colours and immense professionalism.

What I found innovative is the way they tried to ingrain DHL's mission, vision, core values into their employees. So the million dollar question...What did they do?

Now, we all use the elevator umpteen number of times in our offices.And so do they. What if the time you spend waiting for the forlorn elevator teaches you something? That's what they did. The door of the elevator is painted with DHL's mission,vision and core values. Wow!

This is a better way to remind the employees about the purpose of their existence within their organisation than hanging posters around the office in places everybody loves to oversee.And twice better than reading out this statement loud in the induction programme when employees would love to grab 40 winks.

Its time for others think on DHL's lines.
