Managing the Office
Behavior at work can be influenced by factors both inside and outside of the work environment. Even if the management style, communication techniques and workplace attitudes of a company are top-notch, outside factors can affect production and work behavior of an employee. Sometimes this personal problem affects an employee so much that it changes his attitude and spreads like a ripple in the water, so take into consideration as many factors as possible when assessing someone's work behavior. Setting
Work environments with lots of light have been shown to increase productivity, but if employees believe they are being watched and studied for how changes to the setting affect their behavior, the positive changes will last, even if the new lighting does not. If work environments are clean and well-kept, employees often have more pride in their work than if a building looks old and dingy. If a building is dirty but the owners clean it up and clean the surrounding area by removing graffiti and picking up litter, chances are employees will follow their lead and do the same. Management Style
If a boss yells at her employees, especially in front of other employees, and it seems like nothing is ever done up to her expectations, productivity will decline. A simple word of encouragement or taking five minutes to go over expectations will make an employee feel like he is not just another face in the crowd but a valued member of a company team. That feeling of value will make the employee work harder and care about the result, instead of just rushing through a project to check it off his list. 00:00
