Top Reasons That Demotivates An Employee
“Every accomplishment comes
with a decision to try”
Can
you still remember for how long your motivation and determination at work wears
off since the day you have started? This article is an eye-opening for
everybody, admit or not these are the top reasons why at times there are people
that are demotivated at work.
Micromanagement
We
all know about the micromanagement, here’s the manager and all his plans-
what’s the catch? You and your co-employees will be his hands and actions as
you implement every little detail he asked you to do in a certain time to
finish it. Micromanagers are easily irritated when one of the subordinates
procure a task without consulting him and rather change the entire plan. Indeed
micromanagement causes subordinates apathy.
Public Criticism
To
reprimand an employee of his mistakes in front of other people especially to
his colleagues will totally decrease his self-confidence and may lead to
depressions and lose the enthusiasm to go to work on the next day.
Lack of Career Vision
What
was the first thing you were asked to on your first day at work? For sure you
have to read the company profile whereas it includes the mission and vision of
the business. From that on, you would simply start envisioning what lies ahead
of you in this company and you can start planning and creating ideas on what
can you contribute. Tell you what, the more you know about the objectives of
the company you are working for the more you will draw yourself closely to its
aim and to the people that surrounds you. Sometimes, we keep on doubting about
the company’s capability to handle people and drive them to its own plan, only
to find out that we ourselves should also give extra effort and a little bit of
understanding.
Under-valued or underestimated
Have
you ever tried to exert effort and it seems that the managers and other
co-employees do not have any time for you to compliment the works you have
done? Do you feel needed and accomplished every time they gave you applause to
your tasks or it’s just a matter of boosting up your ego? Take a look on the brighter side, honestly
the least you expect them to compliment you the less stress you will be having.
Try to focus on your work and once the manager notice that you are working
beyond their expectations and towards the company’s goal, you’ll be grateful
and you will think that it is wise to stay and continue working without any
doubts.
Unhealthy Working Environment
Gossip,
eavesdrops, complainers that focusing on the problems itself instead of
solutions, too much noise and conflict relationship with others can lessen the
level of your productivity and these are the things that truly inevitable to
each and every business we have in this world.
Salary
This
is the last but definitely the strongest reason why a person became
demotivated, usually in the first few months your initial salary would be fine
to you but eventually as you stay longer, the higher will the work load would
be for you. Basically, there are two scenarios that you can do; it’s either you
will raise your concern to your supervisor and mention the things you have done
for the good of the company, this will tackle about the reason why you really
deserve a salary raise and if this technique won’t work, the only thing you can
do is wait for the annual or mid-year company’s evaluation.
Next
time you know someone who’s demotivated at work, be a gift and help them to be
inspired once again.
