Re-engaging Managers can be done, and is vital for the health of your organisation.
Hello and welcome to this month’s dilemma which is all about disengaged managers:
The challenge
This month, an employer asked for advice on how to motivate a group of middle managers. These managers had provided feedback indicating that they were demotivated due to a lack of control as they felt that the senior management team had all of the decision-making power. In a fairly large organisation, the impact was significant.
My response:
Sometimes just allowing managers to be heard and feel that their views are respected is enough to spur them on to initiate changes themselves. Most managers are in that position because they are self-motivated and will take the initiative.
However, if things have gone so far that they feel helpless and unable to make vital change themselves, more drastic action may be required.
