| Providing a chance for employee feedback can dramatically increase morale and job satisfaction |
| My research with over 1,000 personnel shows that employees who feel they often have a chance to provide feedback to supervisors have higher scores on multiple engagement factors than employees who rarely have a chance for such feedback. What this results shows is the tremendous positive benefit from effective internal communications. Successful organizations with healthy work places value employee input, stress the need for collaboration and connectivity, and engage in leadership practices that bring out the best in others. MANAGEMENT TIP: Communications is the lifeblood of successful organizations. It is not a "once in a while" activity or a top-down process of telling people what to do. It is a continuous process of constant listening, sharing new and important information, and letting people know whats become of their suggestions. This means if you're going to ask for feedback, be prepared to take action on what your hear back! |
