15 Things Employees Wish Their Bosses Knew
We work better in a happy environment
If you want employees to thrive, you need to help them feel relaxed and confident. This does not happen by creating a tense work environment where coworkers get in trouble for simply chatting and talking for 30 seconds, or for having a snack at their desk, or for barely breaking the dress code. If these things (small talk, dress code, etc.) do not actually impact one’s quality of work, let it go. Being on top of employees for these little issues makes them on edge, and they cannot thrive like that.
