Suddenly out of nowhere, we got an email yesterday about a session where we had to represent our group in a short session where we would have to speak on a common topic. Though the entire exercise seemed a lot of fun, the kind of work schedule I am facing did not make it a welcome act.
Anyway, the topic is “Work place changes that will enhance my potential“. I thought about it last night, and here is what I could come up with.
- IT – Suspend stupid rules, remove bottlenecks, simplify workflow, etc, etc…
- Engage us – Come on, a debrief of the last month to the Managers and above will create transparency and build trust.
- Work from home – at least 2-4 days a month.
- Did I say IT – Remove that stupid wallpaper, and the forced screensaver – they are insulting!!
What do you think would help you?
You more or less said it all man! I’d say put that “Sabbatical Break” in practice (yet another super cost cutting measure I tell ya!) and please please please bring us back to cyberpark 😀
Totally agree with the Sabbatical and Cyberpark thing. I say re-locate entire IP at Cyberpark. Better interaction, more fun, more work.
Oh, and I forgot – ban email distribution lists!! And stupid people. And e-learning modules.
