Issue # 2
The BIGGEST MISTAKE you can make in your business.
And how it could cost you $MILLIONS… yet it’s completely overlooked
What happens when you hire
BAD MANAGERS?
They EMBED themselves in your organization
Meaning it becomes DIFFICULT AND
COSTLY to identify them
They cultivate change to benefit THEIR VISION, not
the organization’s vision
Meaning they throw you off course costing you $MILLIONS with bad strategic choices
They DEFLECT responsibility and
accountability
Meaning they setup processes and policies for SELF-PRESERVATION
They help employees become DISENGAGED
Meaning they DEMOTIVATE employees and disrupt positive
work culture
They DESTROY productivity
Meaning for every $ you spend, you’re receiving LESS business results
They breed…
Like a nasty VIRUS
Meaning they multiply… They could hire more bad managers…
More bad managers… disengage more employees…
More disengaged employees… disengage other employees…
Disengaged employees… disengage customers…
Disengaged customers… disengage potential customers by telling them about their bad experiences
This problem is BIGGER than supporting a bad investment
This problem is big enough to make it the BIGGEST MISTAKE you could make
BECAUSE
IMAGINE THS
You’re the “A” employee
You’ve report to a bad manager
The manager has placed
policies and processes that make it IMPOSSIBLE for you
to do your job well
You either A) Risk going above their
head – Risking your credibility and your job or…
B) Hope that it gets better
You write your ANONYMOUS HR
review but… the information is so detailed
you feel the need to OMIT CRITICAL information
NOTHING CHANGES
You turn into a “B” employee because you’re frustrated and demotivated
Now multiply this situation by 10, or even 100. .
It SPREADS like a virus and the symptoms and damage vary in every case…
AND NOW…
IMAGINE THIS
What happens if the bad manager is in HR?
The very department whose responsibilities are to prevent, mitigate and manage this very problem? How do you know they will do it effectively?
MORE
IMPORTANTLY…
Even when you stop the problem, the costs are enormous
The bad manager’s team are now “B”
employees and semi-disengaged
They are bitter at management for making a poor decision
Even with a new “A” Manager, it’ll take
twice as long to turn the team around.
But… it’s better
late than never.
How do you identify this problem? And how do you
this problem STOP
You can follow these 3 P’s
