FearShackles

Fear in the workplace is like putting shackles on continuous improvement.

When team members have fear, the very best in potential performance and the highest aspirations of the organization are mired in concrete.

What would cause apprehension and tentativeness in the minds of team members? Fear of...

  • Having decisions made within policy and law reversed.
  • Public criticism.
  • Retaliation.
  • Social isolation.
  • Embarrassment. 
  • Being marginalized.
Some leaders use FEAR as leverage. FEAR is not tool, however, that affects, fosters, and promotes continuous improvement. 

Where we headin', Boss?
