TEMPO.CO, Jakarta - One of the negative energies that affect your mood is the office environment, where you spend almost half-a-day outside home. But not many people aware of where the negative energy comes from.
Professor of management Wharton Nancy Rothbard defined work environment that oozes negativity as a place where people are facing physical and mental pressure, which can lead you to resign from your workplace. The following are five conditions that can create negative energies which lead to added pressure in the office.
1. Troublesome Coworker
If your boss pairs you with a coworker who is difficult to work with, it can lead to problems outside the work environment. Other than that, if you are surrounded by coworkers who relentlessly and endlessly complain about the work they are facing, consciously or not, you will start to be infiltrated by the feeling of discomfort and would end up with the same fate as they do.
2. Many Coworkers Coming and Leaving
A coworker who resigns and is quickly replaced by a new one can suddenly change your work environment. Basically, there are no positives emerging from these situations. The source or trigger causing the high employee turnovers must be quickly identified.
3. Unappreciated Achievements
Any task that you succeed to complete will often be considered as a mediocre achievement by your boss. Remember, working is not just about making money, but it is also a self-appreciation and the search for the optimum carrier. This means that employees need to be appreciated or incentivized for their contribution.
4. Exchange of Ideas is stuck
Conducive work environment enables a healthy teamwork and the exchange of ideas between coworkers. If an idea is suppressed, you will end up becoming a robot or just part of an office system, which leads to working under pressure.
5. Miscommunication
Miscommunication often happens between an employee and their employers. This type of condition creates unnecessary situations that might affect your work performance.
