Pains
How many of these complaints would come up if you asked your employees to describe their work environment?
- “We didn’t hear about that so we didn’t get ready for it.”
- “I’m being pulled in too many different directions and can’t get anything done.”
- “The priorities change almost daily so I can’t finish anything.”
- “Morale is down because people are confused.”
- “We keep getting surprises.”
- “I’m not sure exactly what my job is but I’m working 80 hours a week.”
- “My boss doesn’t know what is going on either.”
- “I never see anyone anymore so I have no idea what is happening.”
- “How come I wasn’t consulted about that?”
