WHY EMPLOYEES DON'T DO WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO PART 1 OF 4

WHY EMPLOYEES DON'T DO 
WHAT THEY'RE SUPPOSED TO DO
PART 1 OF 4


thank you to all of you who have VIEWED this BLOG over the past few years and any NEW ones recently.

I set up this BLOG to share ideas and knowledge I gained from 1980 to 2010 while I gave Keynote speeches, concurrent sessions, workshops from 90 minutes to 1/2 day to full day to 6 or 7 to 10 day long programs and then taught a 40 hr masters degree course that covered these topics:

Coordinating:      Leading Styles & Skills
Communicating: Styles & Skills
Collaboration:     Teaming
Conflict
Cre8ng:               Creative Thinking & Problem Solving

other commitments diverted my time,

001 - Why Employees Don't
         Do what they're Supposed to Do

I found this book back in 1990 and used it as a topic of discussion
in my longer programs to get supervisors to managers to leaders
to talk about their understandings of Why or Why Not Employees Do or Don't Do What They're Supposed to Do.

It led to several interesting discussion.

Perhaps sharing 4 of the author's discoveries a day will start some discussion among you.

He claimed to have found 16 different reasons in the 1980s.

Perhaps there are more today in your workplaces.

1.  They Don't Know Why They Should Do It.

2.  They Don't Know How to Do It

3.  They Don't Know What They Are Supposed to Do

4.  They Think Your Way Will Not Work

Discussion Questions

Who is to blame for these reasons?

What might supervisors, managers, team leaders, leaders
do to correct for or eliminate these reasons?
