Employee Engagement
Employee engagement has emerged as a popular organizational concept in recent years. Employee engagement starts with an individual. From there, it can go out like a light or spread like wildfire. An engaged Employee is aware of business context, and works with Colleagues to improve performance within the job for the benefit of the organization. In 2019, we have arranged PohelaBoishakh Celebration, two EID celebration, Women’s Day Celebration, birthday celebrations of Employees to keep our Employees motivated and truly being a part of the bank. As part of the improvement we have also arranged an Intra-Bank Cricket Tournament, which turned out to be a signature program of our bank. High levels of engagement not only affect the performance level, it also promote retention of talent, foster customer loyalty and improve stakeholder value.

Human Capital
Businesses around the world proclaim their employees as being the most valuable resource of organization. Dhaka Bank also believes such notion. Broadly, a cluster of competences, diversity, engagement, values of employees, knowledge of employees considered as Human Capital in the banking industry. Human Capital has the potential to enhance overall productivity and efficiency, assist adherence to compliance requirements, ensure banks’ survival, achieve sustainable success and enhance business performance. Intangible assets such as human capital have the potential rather than other assets to achieve sustainable competitive advantage. Service sector organizations (like banks) are more highly contingent on Human Capital than manufacturing organizations. In banks the fuel and energy that drive the business come from people.
Human capital is possibly the most vital, yet overlooked, means of establishing competitive advantage for companies today. Traditionally, organizations put emphasize on the factors, such as products, process, technology, and other resources. But current market characterized by globalized market and intensification of competition, the rapidly changing technology do not provide sustainable competitive edge over competitors.
Regardless of how well executives may genuinely extol the necessity to attract, grow, motivate, and retain talent, our means of measuring the management of talent and, more importantly, empirically demonstrating its impact continue to lag behind.
The Bank’s strategic focus of growing risk calibrated core operating profit and market share is bolstered by re-calibrating the performance architecture. The individual performance indicators are aligned to the organization objective of serving the customer with the most relevant products and services. The Bank has always believed in the philosophy of ‘Building Talent’ and has created industry-academia partnerships focused on creating a future ready workforce.
Building human capital has become much emphasized in today’s world. To become successful in the banking industry, we will be increasingly dependent on intangible assets such as talent. As competition intensifies, the need to attract and retain the best skills and talents will become more urgent. Going forward, the availability of talents will become the pivotal factor determining the capacity for the industry to reinvent and transform. To align with this requirement, we have transformed our strategy and more focused on developing our resources, attract and retain the best talents from the market through better compensation package.
