But many nonprofits put relationships with employees at a lower level of importance than relationships with donors and other funding sources. Ultimately this common mistake undermines the entire organization and detracts from your mission because it creates a counterproductive work environment.
To begin fixing these botched relationships, and celebrating your employees for who they are and what they do, we’ve put together the top 3 things NOT TO DO.
1. Playing favorites: We all know you have favorite employees. Whether they’re your top performers, best friends, or just people you really like for the job, don’t treat them any differently than you treat the rest of your employees.
Better yet, treat the rest of your employees the same way you treat your favorites.
2. Not giving employees a forum for voicing suggestions: If you want employees to know that they’re valued members of your organization encourage them to make suggestions to improve your operations or the way that their job is handled.
More importantly, take the time to recognize and implement the best suggestions. This will motivate employees to improve working processes and implement new activities.
3. Lack of communication with employees: Open and easy communication helps build the strongest relationships within your agency.
However you accomplish it, make sure that you’re present and easy to get in touch with when employees want, or need, to talk.
