Bosses Not Motivating Staff


Small business owners have been warned that their staff do not know what their objectives are for next year and are not feeling motivated, according to a report by the Department for Business Innovation and Skills (BIS).


The BIS report revealed that only 25% of staff have had objectives for 2010 clearly communicated to them and a further third do not even know if a vision for their business' future exists.

The report suggested this is having a negative effect on employee motivation levels, as only 27% feel positive about the year ahead.

"If leaders don't explain where the business is going and what it's seeking to achieve, how can people be motivated or know what they're meant to contribute? Clear goals are a key ingredient for achieving performance and productivity," said David MacLeod, BIS advisor.
