It's frustrating to pull more weight and take ownership when other people aren't. But what's legitimately soul-killing to an individual and deadly to an organization is the collective impulse to avoid giving those people credit when it's due. Most of those 20% out there pulling more than their weight just want some acknowledgement. Not giving them that is one way to quickly hollow out your company.
- bartvk 7mo agoI've never cared about this, actually. For me, the camaderie of the team is most important, and next comes the money. Acknowledgement from people who barely know what I do: I couldn't care less.
- llbeansandrice 7mo agoMoney is a form of acknowledgement. Other forms of acknowledgement are a way to keep HR and your boss accountable for giving you more money ime. If you’ve delivered a bunch and thats been seen then its much easier to advocate for higher pay and call them out when you don’t get it.
