Helping A Discouraged Employee

Monday October 26, 2009
These are tough times. People are worried about their jobs and their companies. So it is not surprising that some may be discouraged. Does someone on your team seem "down"? It is important for a manager to know how to recognize a discouraged employee and to know what to do to help them return to their former level of production.

An employee who has become discouraged will not perform at the level he or she is capable of achieving. In addition, they can begin to draw others down to their level.

Read Helping A Discouraged Employee to find out how you can help the employee, your team, and yourself get through this difficult period.
