Managers: Time to Talk Turkey
Working Girl
NOVEMBER 24, 2010
As we go into the holiday season, consider talking turkey with your employees. If you''re a typical manager I''m guessing you don''t do this too much. Other stuff gets in the way. You have your agenda and work schedule and meetings. Your employees seem reasonably happy and productive. You probably assume things are fine. And maybe they are. But extrapolating from recent studies about employee engagement, they probably aren''t. Very likely, there''s an undercurrent of resentment from employees who feel undervalued, primarily by you. No, I''m not psychic. But I do know people and organizations.

Dear Evil HR Lady, I have several recommendations from co-workers listed on my LinkedIn profile. As I’m currently shopping my resume, I’m assuming that they are being contacted by recruiters to verify employment and dig for any issues. It would explain some of the recent resentment I’m experiencing at work and some non sequiter comments from the people who made recommendations. This leads me to question the value of a recruiter contacting people at my current employer. If I want to get rid of a problem employee and a recruiter calls me looking for dirt… I give them a glowing recommendation.
