Management consulting publication Forbes has identified ten practices which destroy the trust factor in organizations. Forced or stack ranking programmes are harmful towards employee morale as they pit employees against one another. Bell Curve is possibly even more hurtful as only a fifth of employees are shown in positive light whereas others are disregarded. Fear based attendance policies must be consigned to the bin as a relic of past practices. Management by the numbers is simply number crunching and not a part of management. Progressive discipline is nothing but a method of punishments only sans rewards. The three sixty degree feedback sounds good on paper but in effect does not serve the purposes. Ultimately employees need to be dealt with in a way one would treat vendors.
