Wisdom in the Workplace

Statistically, more than two thirds of employees don’t feel engaged in the work and think their work is tedious, boring or their workplaces have no fun, unfair or even toxic, and even more worse, most of employees won’t tell their managers their true feeling. Can you figure out what employees are not saying and diagnose the root cause of problems, and what the wisdom in the workplace really mean for you?
Wisdom in workplace means to have work ethics and positive mindset, dealing with the situation intelligently, wisely and be impartial. Increase productivity and knowledge without pressure. Wise leaders have the patience to observe, listen, and process what is going on around them within the organizational hierarchy, and effectively execute with a decision or direction. The managers can foresee potential events, and act proactively to cope with them in advance of the event. It may come of experience, education, or intuition--so they are wise to take proactive steps to protect employees or the future of the organization.Wisdom in the workplace means to develop positive thinking and proactive actions in a workplace:
The wisdom in the workplace means to pass on the knowledge to others smoothly and build the culture of learning: People learn best by doing and coaching. We all learn in different ways. From management perspective, managers have to experience first hand the consequences of their behaviors, actions and decisions. They seem to benefit not only from self feedback, but also from observer feedback. Businesses can train leaders by giving them the information on how to be better communicator; coach them on how to be more effective decision makers. It gives managers knowledge about effective management and leadership skills. However, it is only after someone begins to actually practice these behaviors that they will gain wisdom. Because the spirit comes from the top, and then they can pass on the knowledge to others and build a culture of learning. Wisdom in the workplace is possessing the knowledge of your workplace inside and out and having the ability to pass on that knowledge to others.
Wisdom in the workplace means to have high-engaging employees and satisfied workforce. Employee disengagement is a widespread malady in organizations, causing the loss of billions of dollars, hours of dissatisfaction, and work lives lacking true value. People in organizations, singly and in groups, need stability, security and motivational factors to meet their basic needs; and, they all agree that for human beings to function to the best of their ability, they require recognition to fulfill their obligations, encouragement and opportunities to progress in order to gain a measure of self-esteem and contribute to society through a fair system of remuneration. Business leaders should avoid the following mismanagement symptom, and take necessary actions to transform a lethargic, disconnected organization into a thriving workplace.• Failing to openly and clearly communicate policies, plans and objectives; • Failing to acknowledge people’s presence and efforts; • Disregarding or showing disinterest in employees; • Failing to thank people for their time and effort when a job is well done; • Criticizing employees in public; lack of empathy• Operating policies of nepotism or favouritism; • Encouraging unprofessional internal competition but not co-operation and teamwork; • Lack of growth opportunity and career path; stick to culture of mediocrity.• Failing to offer reasonable levels of remuneration that take account of every aspect of work requirements, conditions and levels of responsibility; • Failing to provide relevant and appropriate training and update courses;
