How do you feel about your job? Does it make you want to get up in the morning and make an impact; or, does it make you want to hit that snooze button so hard it breaks off your alarm? What concerns me the most about these two ends of the spectrum are those employees, particularly in leadership, who are caught in between.
They’re working…but they’ve checked out.
Expectations Matter
Don’t Leave
When expectations and the reality of our jobs are not aligned, nothing good happens. We become less interested and committed. Typically work product suffers and relationships that might have been strong at one point now become fodder for office gossip. Worst of all, the impact on our teams is obvious and immediate.
“When we lose the confidence of our team, we have nothing as leaders.”
How About You
Have you already checked out? Have you noticed a colleague that has become disengaged or seems to be somewhat distant? It’s time to step in and be a resource. Being a resource is still part of Human Resources, right?
I’d love to hear from you.
No Excuses.
