FULL STORY: Most people like having a boss that doesn’t micromanage . . . WORK. However, many workers DO need management to meddle when there’s workplace drama.
There’s a new term called “glossing,” which is “a leader’s failure to address workplace issues and hardships, which prompts employees to coast at work and suppress negative emotions.”
Basically, when bosses fail to address obvious problems, anxieties, and tough times, and instead just convey a fake positivity . . . “glossing over” the underlying issues. (Either between employees, or the employees and the business.)
That kills morale, and makes workers feel detached. It causes the workplace to feel less motivated, and promotes a lazier attitude.
A recent survey found that just 15% of workers believed their employers were candid about workplace and business challenges. And only 23% said that their boss responded constructively when employees voiced concerns.
