Warm Fuzzies and Cold Prickles
How much do we care about the emotional well-being of our team members?
Do we understand what it means to build a culture infected with love, care and intimacy?
Most importantly do we care enough to 'take-care' of our employees when we talk about appraisals?
Here in this proposal I would like to re-visit the fundamentals of giving, receiving and accepting feedback in a safe, secure and healthy environment. I will introduce the classic 'Stroke Economy' model and the injunctions to emphasise the need for building a team which is not 'stroke' deprived. This model could be used for individual/organisation profiling and its an excellent tool for self-introspection.
