Dq1
Employee Needs (graded)
Please take a look at the bulleted needs described on page
286: survival, security, belonging, respect, and fulfillment. Then, describe
how your organization meets those needs, and explain what they could do
differently to better meet the fulfillment needs.
Dq2
Happy Employees – common, or scarce? (graded)
To kick off this discussion, remember what we were
discussing this week about happy employees. Our lecture talked about making
employees number one. How prevalent do you find this to be? Do you think it is
common? Why or why not? Is it a lack of knowledge, ignorance, or arrogance? You
would think that this concept was easy to understand. Do you think today’s
managers and leaders forgot to read the handbook on effective employee
management?
