Google's Secret - People Over Stocks

Google seems to master brain based tactics that keep their workplaces fresh, while other firms struggle increasingly with low morale and boring routines. It’s not enough to go after money Google teaches, and you only have to look at their financial success to see how it works.

Stock prices alone leave workers and most firms dry and unsatisfied.  With a more take care of your workers attitude, Larry Page and Sergery Brin help employees to combine talents in ways that build individuals and build the business.

Through a detailed matrix they vary the roles and maintain fair pay for performances. In contrast to stocks which can grow moody and fluctuate

without notice, Google concentrates on people as their main currency! Yes … even above stocks. In addition to beefing up its 401 (k) plan, for instance,  Google goes far beyond most firms to keep workers happy.

Rochester’s Democrat and Chronicle reported today…

This month Google plans to unveil an innovative, ‘transferable option’  program that will let workers to auction off their options to outside investors. That could offer relief to workers currently sitting on 1.3 million underwater options that were priced in November, just shy of Google’s all-time peak of $510.

So how does Google track their progress for valuing people as currency?

This summer they plan to survey employees in a fourth “Happiness Survey”  Do you think people will mark them well again for their generous maternity and paternity leaves, meals bought for new parents, and generous benefits for people who request extended periods away from work?

Google seems to have the secret handle on cultivating what’s good for the brain through benefits that prevent burnout and keep wonder alive. No wonder their workers stay! Interested in a job at Google?
