But what are the mantras? And why do we need them?
What is a mantra?
In Indian culture, the word “mantra“ originally stood for spiritual
concepts and verses that would become a part of people when
uttered repeatedly. By reducing them to a few words or letters,
mantras can be easier to remember and give room for individual
interpretations.
Within a company, mantras normally cover regular topics and
corporate elements. They mostly relate to core values of the
corporate culture or of business ethics. Mantras selected by the
Company Management generally act as a guideline for employees
and executives, while also promoting self-reflection. The mantras of
the Motherson Group should encourage employees and executives,
in a positive sense, to examine and evaluate their own actions
regularly.
Have you ever noticed that you keep doing certain tasks the same
way, always – even when there are better and more efficient ways
of reaching your target? Mantras can help you break such repetitive
behaviour and make the most of your actions. The aim is to check
work and decision processes regularly in the interest of the company
and therefore its employees. Motivation plays a critical role in this
respect: mantras should motivate everyone to improve continuously
and to grow with the challenges faced.
The mantras should always be seen as a helping hand. They are not
meant to limit you or dictate what you do.
Should you have any questions about the mantras, feel free to
contact your manager or the HR department.
