Do You Need to Automate Your Staff's Attendance?

Transformation That Reshapes Habitual Behavior

I wrote about Microsoft’s transformation last month after Satya Nadella was named the new CEO of Microsoft, but talked scantily about our own transformation even though we’re very much at the crossroad of our self-stirred transformation. Right. Why should I bother about transformation, even if Microsoft failed to transform? I should have minded my own business.

Some of my staff commented that our glory is still in progressive manner, and we don’t have external forces like Microsoft to push us; do we really need this transformation?

Much Ado About Lunches and Breaks

Between tons of work, meetings, presentations, racing towards targets and performance, companies need to take a break and take a hard look on the way they handle employee’s lunch and break hours.  It’s simply because something that seems so trivial could cost company big money if it’s not being handle properly and according to the (labor) law. Bare in mind that not all breaks are created equal in one’s country or even one’s state. Hence, careful understanding on how to deal with lunch and break hours is crucial to tackle it right.

The Gist of Transformation

Microsoft has finally chosen Satya Nadella as its CEO, succeeding Steve Ballmer, who announced his retirement plan four months ago. Microsoft is indeed a fortunate one. Although it remains cocooned in its own glorious past; it still has the time and loads of cash to move forward. Unlike the not-so-smart-or-lucky Nokia and Blackberry, when the ‘smart’ storm swiped, they’ve been blown out. Yes, just like that!

Curbing Nonchalant Time Stealing the TimeTec Cloud Way

Honesty is apparently not the best policy, definitely not in the working world because often times, human resources department has to deal with dishonest employees with regards to time attendance and medical leaves causing company a lot of money. For an employee, so what if he asked other fellow colleague to clock in for him and he'll show up an hour later? Nobody will even notice that he's missing in that short hour. So, what if he clocked in earlier and clocked out later than scheduled? When an appointment with a client outside of the office is at 11, just inform the office that the meeting is at 10 and go straight from home around 10 instead of checking into the office first. Who’s going to check on you?
