15 Things Employees Wish Their Bosses Knew
Don’t just point out the one thing we did wrong
When employees work tirelessly on something that you all know is very difficult, there might be one or two things that aren’t perfect. But do not just point out those one or two things. This is especially important when their task is fixing something that was very flawed before. Say employees are tasked with completely redoing a project that an old employee messed up. There may be some leftover errors. Do not just point those out. Acknowledge how far along they brought this. Only pointing out the small flaws is like having someone turn a lump of clay into a nearly perfect statue and saying, “One of the fingers is too short.”
