Undefined method in module rails 4

I wrote this module and saved it in lib/Connect.rb

module Connect
  def self.fullname
    'Was'
  end
end

Next i added in my controller:

require "#{Rails.root}/lib/Connect.rb"

Then in my view:

<% @employees.each do |employee| %> 
  <%= employee.fullname %>
  <h4><%= link_to "#{employee.vorname} #{employee.nachname}", nutzerverwaltung_path(employee.id) %></h4> 
  <% end %>

Somehow now i get the erorr:

 undefined method `fullname' for #<Employee:0x37c1e68>

What did i wrong?

Do not add self which is for class method.

  def fullname
    'Was'
  end

require this file at initializers, not controller.

And you also need to include this module in model, for this is going to extend model

class Employee < ActiveRecord::Base
  include Connect
