This post was written by Alison Green and published on Ask a Manager. Remember the letter-writer whose office argued for five months about whether they could have an ergonomic chair ? They finally received their chair after a five-month ordeal (over a chair ) (first update here ) but … well, here’s the latest.

How to Handle Bad Listening at Work Unfortunately, bad listening at work is the norm, not the exception. According to the University of Southern California, the average person retains only about half of what people say to them immediately after a conversation; after 48 hours, the retention drops another 50 percent.

So how can senior leadership teams fortify their organizations against massive fraud schemes? By recognizing three archetypes of employees who commit fraud — intentional perpetrators, accidental perpetrators, and righteous perpetrators — leaders can spot red flags quickly in order to prevent future losses and reputational damage.

The authors’ research found that three persistent problems plague DEI initiatives: They do not connect to operational or strategic goals and objectives; they do not include the rank-and-file; and they are often implemented through periodic efforts like annual diversity training that aren’t integrated into day-to-day work processes.
