The Quick and Easy Way
to Market a Book Fast

I'm not happy. The printer has still not been fixed and now my chair is broken. The matter with this place is that it is breaking up. My boss is okay but has no clue what is going on. That new person that began last week,who nobody disturbed to bring in ,has been given a work that he has no opinion what and how to do ,why didn't they simply ask me? I told them that this is a new series of plans issued, even though he knew what the plans used were outdated anyway. Sometimes I don't know why I bother turning up.

I went for a drink with some of the guys last night after work. Nobody is happy and Sally from Accounts says that she has simply about had adequate and is considering asking for an increase and if they don't provide it to her she is going to leave the work. The management ( Public Relations Melbourne ) here just don't have a clue, we are haemorrhaging money through our inefficiencies and they think that sending out memo's telling us that they are introducing new procedures for claiming expenses is going to make a difference - whoopee do.

I think I will ask pay rise, if Sally accounts can take me. And so it continues on. These are the sort of thoughts that start to play on the minds of individuals when a company looses touch with their employees; the broken chair, the lack of appreciation, the blaming of 'management' ( PR agency ) , even questioning the futility of what they are doing.

Tiny matters fester and a cynical and destructive mindset improves. Can you be sure that it isn't going on right now in your organisation? Social incidents outside the office become nothing more than a forum for complaints and pessimistic increases among people who feel powerless to effect change. Dissatisfaction will usually synthesise into a required for an growing in remuneration,as if like a not expensive fix more money will momentarily lessen the pain. Left by management, undiscovered and unaware, the concern's of this employee will inevitable find solace with their colleagues own individual concerns, where the only common demand will be for an increase in remuneration, more paid holidays and a reduction in working hours, all of which will not fix the broken chair, ensure that new personnel are in future properly introduced, trained and managed nor help management ( Publicity PR ) identify areas of inefficiency. Organisations have a habit of compartmentalising people, either physically through offices, cubicles and workstations but also in terms of responsibility.

With effective and strong management to support this structure it can be productive, but as an organisation grows, and weak or inappropriate management infiltrates the management chain, it is inevitable that cracks will begin to appear.
