Here at the Heart Department, we believe that a small gesture will make a big difference. Your employees (or clients) are always going through something- whether it be moving, a parent with an extended illness, death of a pet, welcoming a baby, a long-awaited family vacation, promotion, etc. - life events are constant.
Imagine this- you have been working for six months for a medium-sized local company. You show up on time as scheduled and do average work. You don't necessarily go the extra mile but why would you when you generally feel underappreciated. Then unexpectedly, the dog you've had almost your whole life gets very ill and isn't going to make it. So, you tell your manager and HR that you have to take a day off to do what is necessary. When you come back to work afterwards, there is a stunning floral bouquet on your desk, with a card from the CEO stating their deepest sympathies.
You're no one "special", yet leadership thought to send you a little something during this hard time and not only did it brighten your day, but it also made you feel seen as a HUMAN. You now show up to work with added pep in your step, ask how you can do more for the team, and even start recommending your company to others as a great place to work.
Now imagine the ripple effects these small gestures will have over time when this becomes the norm in your workplace.
Think of The Heart Department as your company's personal shopper. We shop and deliver custom gifts for births, deaths, birthdays, housewarming, maternity, illness, funerals, adult and child milestones, marriage, travel, anniversaries, promotions, other major accomplishments, and anything else that may arise. Every day of the week, even on short notice.
We help you start and continue the positive ripple effect your company needs to keep employees, keep them happy, more fruitful, and change the way they view the workplace.
Your employees feel like a number. We make them feel like a name.
Companies are constantly implementing ideas to do just this- buying lunch on Fridays, paying for a snack bar for each floor, passing around birthday cards for signatures- but after speaking with countless employees, unfortunately, many of these ideas fall flat for them. Some have even admitted that THEY the employees pitch in for life event gifts for each other around the office! This creates an unfair environment (where not everyone is included equally all of the time) not to mention having to use their hard-earned money, and, these gifts do not reflect on the caring nature of the employer!
To truly build a workplace where THE COMPANY is the base of the culture, the company must take the lead in this regard.
Showing employees that you care about the little things (that are actually big things to them) will automatically decrease turnover. Personal and attentive gift giving creates an environment that many employees would find hard to leave! 10 out of 10 employees surveyed agreed that they would be hard pressed to resign from a company with leadership that recognizes what they are going through in this way. All things equal, job seekers would choose a company with A Heart Department over one without, every time. Once word gets around that your company has a Heart Department, this alone will attract excellent new hires.
Higher productivity. Better numbers. Exceeded quotas. Higher customer satisfaction. Increasing profits. New ideas. Happier day-to-day. What more could you need?
