Respect

In an article in the Harvard Business Journal, the author notes that 50% of employees do not feel respected by their bosses. This directly translates into poorer employee engagement and performance.
 
The simple act of respecting those that you work with, and who work for you, will increase the productivity of the staff. The challenge is that some managers may not be aware that they are not respecting their staff.
 
It is important to respect those you work with and make the effort to treat them how they want to be treated. If you are not sure how your actions are perceived, ask a trusted colleague or mentor to keep an eye out for you. When you learn how your actions affect others, it can be easier to change.
