Sense of duty is useful in work but offensive in personal relations

Personal relations are the important things forever and ever, and not the outer life of telegrams and anger. Every great achievement was once impossible until someone set a goal to make it a reality.

Nothing shakes the morale of an organization as much as the sudden lowering of the boom on an individual without prior notice to improve his deficiencies. God and the devil are an effort towards specialization and division of labor. If one thinks one is beaten, one is. If one thinks one dare not, one does not! If one wants to win, but thinks one cant, it is almost a cinch one will not.

Contrary to the belief that workers are not interested in their company, most employees want more information relating to their role in the company. It is important that employees identify with the company that they are feeling part of it and not just a number.

Keep a lid on jolly jokers. They can derail team efforts and morale very fast. Remember there is little friendship in the world and least of all between equals. It is essential to state policies of recognition for jobs well done, rewards for ides, a policy of promotion from within and news publicity for accomplishments.

Do not debate with jolly jokers about the value of their hummer. Instead, show how their behavior is disrupting work. A sense of duty is useful in work, but offensive in personal relations. To find out what staff members think, meet them. These sessions should deal specifically with performance and be an opportunity to exchange thoughts, insights and suggestions for improvement.
