A well-designed HR investigation template can make a real difference when it comes to handling workplace complaints.

Sincere managers unintentionally take responsibility for other people’s jobs. People get dumb and weak when you solve problems for them. Being the answer-manager builds your ego and weakens your team. Stop pressuring yourself to solve everyone’s problems. Leaders are irresponsible when they do other people's jobs for them.

Levels of Change Involvement to Consider Change management consulting experts know that there are different levels of change involvement to consider depending upon stakeholder needs and the urgency, scope, complexity, and impact of the desired changes. Not all changes are of equal importance, and not all stakeholders require the same level of involvement to share their reactions, concerns, and ideas.

The world of work has fundamentally changed. The series of waves that the pandemic began have rippled through the Great Resignation, quiet quitting, the Great Regret, and other eloquent phrases that boil down to the same thing: people aren’t engaged at work or enabled to perform at their best.
