The remnants of a dictatorial management style still seem to exist. Harrassment , psychological bullying, back stabbing , mis trust , threats, favoritism , all live on , especially in policy management area. But considering that hr and operations know this exists, there can be no confidence that this will change ! What a pity that managent who talk about embracing change., emotional intelligence, engagement , internal communications turn a blind eye to this time and time again. The very core pre requisite to any change in the above, and building of bridges, is building trust, mutual respect and ensuring that a persons dignity is acknowledged . The latest focus is on the ambiance, physical improvements with no engagement as to the psychological aspects of the antiquated cultural dictatorial management style that exists! Try 360 degree engagement ! Get rid of this secrecy about HR! Why does a department not want people to know who there HR partner is? Why , if a query is raised with HR, do the HR department run to that persons line manager before responding !!! No one can trust that process !!! Can HR not be a confidential ear without grassing to managers ? What’s the fear of the truth !! Truth is the basics for setting a path to improvement ! Embrace it, don’t hide from the truth ! it’s sad listening to stories of the same repetitive behaviors being Orchestrated by a few, yet affecting so many !
