Managing Talent and Perceptions
Facility Management is a people intensive business and concerted efforts are required in managing this important resource. In this context Mr Deepak Shanbhag says, “As an organisation, people are our biggest asset. Team motivation, nurturing and retaining talent, skill development, and progression planning are accorded the highest importance as these have a direct bearing on our resource productivities, and therefore our organisational deliverables”.
Equally, perceptions around the industry have not kept pace with its evolution into a technology led, innovation inspired value added service. To this, Mr. Shanbhag says “Perceptions (externally) is an important area for change; from the current perception of being a manpower provider (commodity) to one which can deliver customized service solutions (value based) to customers. While the industry primarily deals with manpower and staffing, high emphasis is placed on outcome based delivery approach through infusion and use of technology”.
Ownership and Excellence Key for Business Success
For Mr. Deepak Shanbhag, persistence, focussed approach towards continuous improvement, and conviction along with operational excellence are the keys to success. He says “With fast changing times, it is imperative to remain relevant in the business, which is why it is very important that the business model is flexible and adaptive to change. Greater opportunities come to organisations that can respond quickly. Always look for breakthroughs, especially in information technology, as that will allow to get more done faster, and with lesser resource strain. An entrepreneurial attitude provides one with the extra push to cut costs, improve productivity, and go out of the way to keep customers satisfied. Without change, businesses would lose their competitive edge and fail to meet customer needs.  Today’s world is about experiences and has moved from customer satisfaction to customer loyalty to customer success. It is important that our experiences assists our clients’ business growth”.
