A NEW BREED OF ENTEPRENURES AND THE NEW FACE OF BUSINESS IN NIGERIA

Quick Connect Nigeria aka QCN is a pioneer in the provision of corporate discounts, benefits and incentives. Over 500,000 merchants are enrolled in over 12,000 cities and 106 countries and counting. They design proactive business strategies that help businesses retain, attract and engage customers and employees in order to increase their overall corporate bottom-line. 

As president and founder Quick Connect Nigeria puts it, "QCN bridges the disconnect that exist between the employers, employees and customers at zero cost to participating businesses.   Every employer wants to increase productivity while every employee looks to be rewarded for performance and productivity. Customers simply cares about getting the right product or service for the right price and customer service.  Quick Connect makes it happen as we work behind the scene as a vibrant silent partner to all three parties".

There is a paradigm shift in employee management and the road-map to achieving your corporate objective, a shift that will positively impact your business going forward. Before now, most business managers believed that employee engagement is an innate trait. But our research from organizational climate has proved beyond doubt that it is the organization itself - and most particularly its senior leadership that has the greatest impact on employee engagement.

This research provides striking data about the linkage between employee engagement and financial performance.  The study compared financial results against employee engagement data for 40 global companies.  The study confirmed that firms with the highest percentage of engaged employees collectively increased operating income by 19% and earnings per share capital by 28% year over year.

Those companies with the lowest percentage of engaged employees showed year-to-year declines of 33% in operating income and an 11% drop in earnings per share capital.

Consider the following statistics

• 77% of Employees aged 20-29 confirm that the social aspects of work are very important to their overall sense of workplace satisfaction
• 67% of Employees aged 30 and older said the same
• 86% of Employees confirmed that they are “more likely to listen to recommendations and information” if someone they know and trust presents them

We also find that 89% of managers surveyed believe that the #1 reason employees leave or are dissatisfied is due to their thirst for more Naira’s.  In actual fact, we found that 88% of those who resigned said they did so for other reasons with no connections to financial rewards.  This research brings to bare a significant disconnect business Managers must become familiar with.

The Millennium and Generation x workforce has since moved on and 90% of business managers don’t even know it.
