Allows employees to view work results at any time

Story 1

A psychologist once conducted an experiment to confirm the impact of work results on productivity. He hired a woodcutter and asked him to cut down the tree with a sharp ax. As a result, the woodcutter was doing fast and well. Later, he asked him to cut a piece of wood with an ax. The psychologist told the woodcutter that the work time was the same, but the reward was doubled. His only task was to cut the round wood with an ax. After half a day of work, the woodcutter threw away the ax and said, "I want to see the wood slices fly out ."

In fact, who does not want to see the "Flying Wood?

The results of subordinate work are the direct embodiment of each subordinate's self-worth confirmation. They can also be understood as the external effective value of each job and the most direct result of labor. Therefore, it is the significance of each subordinate's work to see the "Flying Wood. Any work that does not see "Wood Chips" can only be mechanical repetition. It means that the work achievements and values are buried and annihilated. Mechanical repetition and result burial ability have a negative effect and a huge lethal effect of 100% or even 200%. It can reduce a person's work enthusiasm and motivation to zero, or, ultimately, "nothing is done but not ".

Allowing employees to see the "Flying wood chips" in a timely manner can immediately mobilize their work enthusiasm and make their original boring and meaningless work attractive. For example, a blind factory in Shanghai specializes in producing various screws. This work is very standardized, professional, and procedural-controlled. This is suitable for the blind, but it is undoubtedly monotonous. But when they learn that their own screws have been installed on the aircraft, ships, and various machine tools, these products are exported to many countries and regions in the world, they felt comfort and pride in their hearts, and deeply felt the value of their own work.

The absence of "Flying wood chips" is the main reason for employees to lose their enthusiasm for work. When employees "cannot see Wood Chips", uncertain psychology will reduce their ability to concentrate on doing things, thus compromising their work performance. 

An American real estate company once prepared a very important research project. Glean, in charge of this project, handed over this important task to Maria. She is a competent employee and is very valued in the company. Gary told Maria that the study would take five months. If the job is well completed, the company will give her a promotion when the job is completed.

During this period, glean paid close attention to Maria's progress. Everything was as he wished, and there was no problem. But what puzzled him was that, three months later, Maria asked shalyn:

"Gary, I think my job is too meaningless. I cannot see any of my achievements at all. I am not sure to do it well, so I decided not to do it ."

This surprised Ryan very much that he did not understand why the best employee "ruined his future" and pushed away a job that was far beyond her capabilities. Later, Maria continued: "You have done this challenging job for me and I am very grateful for the opportunity to be promoted. But I have been working for three months, but I cannot see any results. I don't know how I did it. I don't know if my job is really great or I can accept it ...... For so long, I have been in the fog of uncertainty. I was going to finish the job completely, but I couldn't stand the pressure. I had to make a change. Sorry! Let you down ."

In reality, when an employee does not see the results of his work, he will not be able to get a sense of accomplishment from his work, he will not be able to make effective corrections, and thus he will not be able to work effectively toward the goal. In the face of a confused "Front", he will take it for granted to guess and feel that his work is meaningless. Therefore, if a leader wants employees to perceive the meaning of their work, they must satisfy them in spirit with "work achievements" so that they can gain spiritual gains.

Real work results are the embodiment of employees' self-value. Let subordinates see their own achievements, and they will be able to experience deep self-satisfaction and have a sincere sense of pride. For example, automakers like to watch assembled cars go out, while housewives want their families to satisfy their needs when they eat their meals; all these incentives come from work when the space shuttle's rivet workers see that they will be satisfied when they launch the plane. This kind of spiritual satisfaction can greatly mobilize the enthusiasm of employees and make them do their best to actively improve the company's performance.

Therefore, when an employee executes a task,As a leader, be sure to let employees see the "Flying Wood" and do not let them guess what they are doing.. Leaders should remember this need of employees because they may not take the initiative to ask for it as they do. However, as a leader, it is the responsibility of the employee to know the results of his work.

Share work experience:

1. Let employees know what they do.Before creating a project, you must clearly explain the ins and outs of the Project. Do not know the name of the project after several months. Many companies have such problems.

2. Assign tasks based on employees' interests.Some people are naturally fond of coding. If you still configure and write documents, they will be rejected in their hearts. If you say better, they will not care about their own achievements.

3. Assign tasks based on the capabilities of employees.Too many tasks can't be completed, too few tasks can not highlight the results.

4. promptly affirm and praise the achievements of employees.Everyone wants to get the palm of their hand and praise. A simple compliment will bring great warmth and excitement, and make employees enjoy the fruits of their work.

5. Share the Team's work results in a timely manner.For example, the team's current iteration review has passed, the team's design scheme has passed, the delivered project has been launched normally, and is highly recognized by the customer. These are the results of the team's work, we will share with you in a timely manner and hold a simple small celebration meeting, which will greatly increase morale.
