As the pandemic begins to wane, leaders are making decisions about the future of their workplaces, and whether returning to the office full-time, part-time, or not at all makes sense for their business. Against this backdrop, we are witnessing an increasing “war for talent” as labour shortages are putting more power in the hands of the employees. Some leaders are selecting the stick over the carrot approach when it comes to returning to work.

Most HR leadership philosophies are grounded in two completely faulty assumptions — “change is hard” and “engagement drives results.” Those beliefs have inspired expensive attempts to keep change from being disruptive to employees. What these engagement programs actually do is create and reinforce feelings of victim-hood and leave employees unprepared to adapt to real changes that are necessary for the health and profitability of their enterprises.

The bottom-line matters. The key question: What is the right bottom line for our business? We often hear leaders announce plans to cut expenses without impacting the customer experience. Great concept, which rarely produces expected results. In fact, according to recent Gartner research , fewer than half (43%) of leaders achieve the level of savings they set out to attain in the first year of cost reduction.

You’re not alone—that’s a common fear among employees in most workplaces.

Chances are you’re working today on a change that affects your team. How you implement that change will impact whether you meet your overall goals. Here’s the mistake leaders can’t help but make: they wait to communicate. Until they have more information. Until they have “all the answers.” Until it’s often too late. The result is that someone else is doing the talking – whether they’re right or wrong – and it’s feeding the grapevine.

Imagine being a fly on the wall in your daughter’s elementary school class. The teacher introduces a new boy who has just moved into town and then asks the kids to welcome him to the class. It’s obvious that he’s uncomfortable. After all, he misses his old friends and doesn’t know anyone. To make matters worse, he’s shy. You’d think the kids would go out of their way to make him feel comfortable, but the opposite occurs.
