Loyalty isn’t quick: it takes time to develop. Loyalty isn’t simple: it’s usually
a complex combination of being treated fairly, being talked to honestly, being
listened to carefully, and treating people respectfully. Loyalty isn’t easy: it
takes constant effort and nurturing. Loyalty isn’t something that can be taken
for granted: it’s constantly being impacted by the things that are said and
done. Loyalty isn’t made of steel: it can be easily damaged by insults and
insensitivity. And loyalty isn’t grey: it’s black and white, and usually it’s
an all or nothing proposition. And people have to understand this: you can’t be
loyal only when it suits you. Loyalty in companies is part of and supported by
its culture: creating a loyal workforce takes being open and transparent,
explaining “why”, listening to concerns, resolving conflicts, catching people
doing things right, and treating employees the way it, the company, wants to be
treated. Companies that do these things win the hearts and minds and loyalty of
their employees every day.
