You wake up on a Monday with a banging sensation in your head that says you’re back to the grind again. You hate this routine. It’s not the best feeling in the world but you know you have to do it – drag your body to the office you despise and flash those fake smiles to people who make your life miserable.
The science of motivating people tells us two things: incentives help engage, while penalties enforce discipline. Great companies are good in balancing both but toxic companies abuse the latter – they thrive on fear to get their employees moving. Seniors bully their staff to pass on more work, while leaders squeeze in unreasonable deadlines by reminding you that you owe them your jobs.
Great companies, meanwhile, believe that while discipline is necessary, it is motivation that keeps employees empowered and engaged in the long run. They praise, they reward, they offer support.It feels great to be in a company where people challenge you every day towards success. When you are surrounded by colleagues who inspire you with better presentations, more creative ideas, and faster execution – you whisper to yourself: “I want to become like you too.
Toxic companies excessively reward individual success at the expense of undermining the value of collaboration and teamwork. They breed employees who believe who will do what it takes to advance the corporate ladder, even if it comes at the cost of hurting others.
To include desperateness and being ambitious, more particularly for newly start up companies who thinks they know better vs the indusrtry's standard protocol, policies and procedures.
