5 ways to manage Apple's human resources to keep Gen Y stay long

Apple's human resource management method puts the interests and needs of employees at the center to help them develop their full potential and stay with the company for a long time. The departure of Steve Jobs left his successor - Tim Cook with a solid foundation but also a lot of pressure. That is the task of managing Apple's talented staff as effectively as Steve Jobs did. Human resource managers have researched 5 ways to manage Apple's human resources so that Gen Y will stick with them for a long time and learned valuable lessons that any talented business leader must agree with.

1. Principle of absolute respect for employees

The most outstanding point in Apple's human resource management is building a corporate culture of absolute respect, with no rank or race discrimination within the company. This is an effective way to manage human resources and is highly appreciated by human resources experts.

This is because Apple's management levels all come from employees, so they have a deep understanding and sympathy for the current staff. That's why at Apple, there are never unreasonable arrangements. On the contrary, employees always have reason to admire their bosses, those who rise through clear, transparent and outstanding processes of striving.

2. Principle of unlimited creativity

Not only that, the creative culture at Apple is also always promoted, as evidenced by the fact that this brand always sets aside "free space" for employees to build and improve products according to their own wishes without having to rely on them must follow cumbersome procedures.

Thanks to this policy, employees in all positions are free to be creative. That is why, although Apple products are oriented long before launch, most of the outstanding achievements often come from the research results of individuals.

3. Principle of challenging employees

This is a unique culture that very few businesses have, while Apple is really successful with this way of human resource management. "The missing apple" always gives tasks that are more difficult than employees' abilities to motivate them to overcome their limits. And strangely, Apple employees always complete those tasks well.

Under the analytical eyes of human resource management experts, the basis of this principle is that managers truly understand the potential of each employee before they can assign corresponding tasks. The difficult tasks here are not mythical, impossible tasks, but in reality, employees only need to try their best to complete them. This human resource management method not only helps individuals develop themselves but also helps improve work efficiency and optimize collective results.

4. Principle of not following competitors

Not only in ideology, but from the beginning, Apple will only recruit candidates who have a strong love for its products instead of other superficially talented candidates.

During the years of its career development, Apple never forced employees to compete fiercely with competitors. Apple believes that employees only need to complete their assigned tasks well and follow the company's own direction and goals. Instead, human resource managers must direct employees to focus more on specific product goals instead of comparing with competitors to become superior. Thanks to this approach, Apple increasingly produces products that lead trends, are unique and have the ability to "shake" the world.
 

It's no exaggeration to say that Apple employees are treated like "gods" by the company!

5. Principle of appropriate welfare

When mentioning Apple, stylish people will immediately think of trend-leading technology products and talented candidates will immediately think of a company with excellent benefits. Employee care mechanisms at Apple are always highly appreciated.

Snacks, snacks and beer are completely free for Apple employees. This group also regularly organizes "Beer Bash" parties to relieve stress for employees. At the party there will be the appearance of today's top famous stars. Stevie Wonder, Demi Lovato and OneRepublic are singers and groups who have been invited to perform at these parties.

Apple is one of the very few companies that supports egg freezing and artificial insemination for female employees. This is a policy to attract talent while improving the health of female employees. It is known that the cost of freezing eggs outside is up to 1,000 USD/year and each in vitro fertilization will cost about 15,000 USD.

In the current period, when human resources become a competitive factor, how to manage human resources to attract and retain talented people is always a concern of business owners. And when solving that challenge, every business can become as successful as Apple is today.
