The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.

The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.

The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:

The recent issuing of Gallup’s dismal reading of employee engagement around the world sparked a memory in us of a paper written way back in 2007 by a Stanford professor named Jeffrey Pfeffer.
The paper (find it here) has the wheezy academic title of “Human Resources from an Organizational Behavior Perspective: Some Paradoxes Explained.” But it really nails the issue.
The paradox is not hard to spot: Even in the face of massive evidence that employee development has significant positive impacts on productivity, and therefore profits, most organizations fail to invest in it. As Prof. Pfeffer puts it:
1) Workplaces in America and elsewhere show pervasive job dissatisfaction, distrust, and disengagement, (which) have a number of negative consequences for employers as well as employees.
2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.

2) How people are managed and their job satisfaction and job attitudes are both substantively and statistically significant predictors of a number of dimensions of organizational performance. Comprehensive evidence…also helps us identify high-performance management practices.
3) In spite of the fact that much of what is required to build engaged and successful organizations is at once well-known and not always costly to implement, many, maybe most, organizations have failed to take appropriate actions, thereby, in some sense, “leaving money on the table.”
There is a strange assumption that every person who exhibits a desire to get ahead (pursues a promotion into management, say) contains in their DNA the wiring to be a great leader.
