"Better a friendly refusal than unwilling consent."
Spanish proverb
Management can order employees to do most anything, expecting and getting compliance, at least in the short term.
And employees must often do things they would rather not do.
But does anyone doubt how better the outcome when both are in agreement concerning what will be done?
Now, how to make that happen more often?

I've said it before in this blog, there is no need to worry about what employees do and do not like. More than anything they want their jobs and that's all that matters.
ReplyDeleteI disagree, even in difficult times.
ReplyDeleteRegardless of whether or not they have a choice, there is much more to management/employee relations than just the fact that there are more people who want jobs than there are jobs.
Look at it this way. Do you want people working for you who don't care about anything other than themselves? I doubt it so why should management act that way to their employees?
