Running a Company? See How Zohonomics Can Help You Make a Difference
Great companies don’t focus on boosting revenue and increasing market share. Instead, they focus on nurturing their people. The monetary gains eventually follow. If you’re under the impression that the benefits of bringing up the human element are uncertain, the success of Zohonomics can change your perception.
Smart Hustle founder Ramon Ray interviewed Praval Singh, who is working as VP of Marketing & Customer Experience at Zoho. They talked about Zohonomics and how Zoho has been making profits and helping people for the last 25 years.
What Is Zohonomics?
Zohonomics was coined by Zoho – an Indian multinational software company that offers software development, cloud computing, and web-based business tools.
In practice, Zohonomics is a growth strategy having the human element at its core. It focuses on humanity and works towards developing the human element more than the monetary one. Also referred to as spiritual economics, Zohonomics emphasizes investing in your talent to nurture them, especially in local communities.
One can find talent everywhere, but opportunities are not everywhere. And many times, a few good job offers require academic degrees from reputed colleges. Zohonomics makes it possible for candidates not having college degrees to start their career at Zoho through its training programs.
The idea is providing opportunity to those who may not have access and in return having employees that grow with your company long term and actively participating in community life to that deeper connection.
Zohonomics enables companies to adopt a culture of caring for people, which eventually helps companies serve their customers well.
Praval believes,
Customers benefit by choosing a company that is focused on its people on products rather than ROI. That means they can form better connections with the people of the company and make sure all their needs are met.
Praval explains there are three key aspects of Zohonomics/spiritual economics, which include:
- Balance
- Symmetry
- Harmony
