Little things make a lot of impact in a company. There is a a simple practice of having free bagels with cheese on every Friday morning in a company and I had a chance to overhear quite a few conversations of the employees. This was placed in such a way that employees from various functions could come and talk over while they were having bagel in the morning. It could be their weekend plans, their department stories, etc..People infact looked forward for Friday bagels..From a company’s standpoint, they hardly cost anything..But from an employee’s feel good standpoint, it is great investment.

i guess these little things are what matter and these are no taught as a part of Human resource management courses in B schools…These have to be learnt on-job i guess.
