Lead: “Motivation can be destroyed amazingly effectively”
Many bosses discourage their employees with certain behaviors. Which ones these are and how we can maintain our own enjoyment of our jobs, organizational researcher Hans Rusinek explains.
A new book by organisational researcher Hans Rusinek, "Reclaim Work", explores why many Germans are frustrated with their jobs. Rusinek argues that leadership plays a crucial role in motivating employees, and that a toxic work environment can lead to demotivation. He identifies "hope-killers" such as unsupportive leadership, an overemphasis on visibility over performance, and a lack of tolerance for criticism.
Rusinek suggests that individuals can take steps to stay motivated, and that leaders should create a positive work environment and encourage critical thinking.
