Triaging A Bad Work Environment

Dateline: February 27, 2015

Welcome to our Friday WRAP – one thought-provoking idea to think about over the weekend.

Have you noticed a drop in productivity lately? Does the work environment seem more stressful than usual?  Are more of your staff members quitting than the usual flow dictates? In a recent article at Fast Company nicely summarized 3 Steps to Recognize a Poisonous Office Environment.  In that article, Barry Saltzman, Entrepreneur, Executive, Consultant and author suggests,

Here are the three trouble spots I scan for first to triage an office when things aren’t working.

1. LACK OF TEAMWORK AND POOR COMMUNICATION

2. INEQUALITY, EITHER REAL OR PERCEIVED

3. THE BAD APPLE

If you were to triage your office culture, would you find any of these symptoms?  What can you do about it?

That’s a WRAP!  Have a great weekend
