A major problem for employers today is getting the best employees and then keeping them. How do you do this? By understanding what it is employees really want. Being able to sense what others feel and want .Here is a list of ten things employees say they want, I have listed them in alphabetical order,organize this list... in the order YOU think employees view as most important to least important to THEM!

I've found that most Salespeople want Leadership. We are the least trained Industry in the World. Our Management are the least traiined people in our Industry. Logical Deduction: Automotive Sales Management people the least trained personnel of any Industry in the World.

No training on how to "Manage". Lesson that needs learned the MOST, is that you LEAD People and you MANAGE Process!

Management doesn't understand this Concept. They don't know how to implement "best practices", manage their Salespeople to "execute" the processes, nor do they know how to "lead" them as a "Team Director"/"Coach".

All most do is treat their Salepeople in a condescending manner, not realizing that when a person feels good about themselves and what their doing, they produce good results, and vice versa.

I sold cars for over 20 Years and the one thing I wanted to feel is "Wanted" if I felt the dealership I worked for didn't need me or even wanted me there, I was out!
Just my personal feeling!
The other thing I loved, is when a dealer would call me and say," Manny" I need you can I send a your New Demo over to you now!

Great Post "Master"
Being appreciated and feeling 'in" on things in any work enviroment is key to a good employee....far outweighs money in fact!...Thanks Manny

Craig...

This is what I would want... #1 full appreciation is a must for me #2 Feeling involved is very important #3 Job security makes you comfortable #4 Good wages keep you there #5 Interesting work... I must love what I do #6 Promotion/ growth opportunity is more along the growth side for me. All I have ever wanted to be is a trainer. #7 Personal loyalty to workers... those I work with I consider friends #8 Good working conditions are somewhat important but not necessary if I have a goal to accomplish #9 Tactful discipline doesn't matter because I stay out of trouble and understand that high D's get over it quickly #10 Sympathetic help/ personal problems... although I would give it... I have yet to need it.

You nailed it Craig! All of the above...
Here is what employees say they want, starting with what’s most important to them:

1. Full appreciation for work done
2. Feeling “in” on things
3. Sympathetic help on personal problems
4. Job security
5. Good wages
6. Interesting work
7. Promotion/growth opportunities
8. Personal loyalty to workers
9. Good working conditions
10. Tactful discipline

Now take a look at what managers THINK employees want, starting with what they think is most important:

1. Good wages
2. Job security
3. Promotion/growth opportunities
4. Good working conditions
5. Interesting work
6. Personal loyalty to workers
7. Tactful discipline
8. Full appreciation for work done
9. Sympathetic help with personal problems
10. Feeling “in” on things
Craig, this reminds me of your previous conversation on "Did you buy em dead or kill em later?". If these lists aren't in the same order then a leader isn't listening and will eventually "kill em dead".
