Why Do So Many Managers Ignore The Obvious and Neglect Feedback?

by Derek Irvine 员工意见反馈是绩效管理中的重要组成部分,它可以充分显示出员工对于公司组织机构的一些意见和态度,如果得不到重视,将会影响员工的工作积极性。但是,很多管理者对于这些反馈却并不重视。为什么会出现这样的情况呢?下文将为你分析解答这个问题。

Have you ever used a new product with perfectly obvious instructions, e.g., Do not use hair dryer in shower? Or perhaps seen a sign like the one at right? The Huffington Post ran a series of these oh-so-obvious instructions recently, which made me think of the obvious leadership and management approaches we all know in the workplace and yet still fail to implement. Psyblog listed the

10 Psychological Keys to Job Satisfaction, three of which were achievement, feedback, and organizational support. I read this and thought, How obvious! But I know many employees rarely if ever experience a sense of achievement in their work because no one ever gives them feedback on their work. Workers need feedback AND down time Without feedback, employees cannot correlate their work to achievement of anything necessary or worthwhile. Without the this feedback on achievement, employees cannot feel any sense of support from the organization for what they do daily. Think what a detriment to employee engagement such managers cause by ignoring the obvious. Research out of Erasmus University Rotterdam makes this quite clear: When employers satisfy basic human needs for social support, feedback and employee opportunities for growth, work gets done more quickly and with better results. The process is cyclical, because working better is more rewarding for the worker, which in turn increases the employee s engagement and effectiveness, [Arnold B.] Bakker, [psychologist at Erasmus] says. Interestingly, engagement or high-quality performance is greatest when the demands of the job are highest, Bakker adds. However, workers should not be held to impossible standards. Down time, says Bakker, is not only a mark of sympathetic management. It helps renew workers, keeping them happy, productive and engaged, which in turn results in a virtuous cycle of work engagement, job satisfaction and higher productivity. Too few bosses look to boost motivation Creating room for down time is another one of those obvious points. No person can work at peak performance constantly. With the after-effects of the recession continuing to linger in low job creation rates, fewer employees continue to do the work of multiple positions. Leadership must acknowledge the stress and tension created in such an environment by praising and recognizing employees for their expanded roles and contributions. Research out of the UK found the bottom-line value in addressing employee tension with efforts to improve employee engagement: Less than one in five bosses take specific measures to boost the motivation of staff who are feeling stressed out. Improving employee engagement in order to deal with worker tension could turn out to be cost-effective in the long run, as 42,000 people were absent from their jobs in the three months leading up to December 2010 due to stress.
