Are You Being Managed By Fear


5 Drop Dead Signs

We all have had “difficult” managers, however, sometimes difficult becomes management by fear or intimidation. The challenge is, many of these leaders and managers do not KNOW this is what is happening. With years of going uncontested, even encouraged by cultures that allow this approach to leadership, a productive employee or department can be lost forever.

 

5 FACTORS OF FEAR



ð Secret telling is the norm rather than the exception


ð The need to control others actions by micro-managing detail or situations in which the employee has proven competency.


ð Employees are resistant/hesitant to share their perceptions because of retribution


ð Favoritism towards specific employees is occurring regularly


ð Factioning among employees is common- with those who support the manager on “one side” (often the favored employees) and those who are not in the “favored group” on the other.
