Breaking the Mold: How Prioritizing Process and Outcomes Can Revolutionize Workplace Relationships
As a worker bee or a boss man, understanding the difference between process and outcomes is vital in building healthy relationships in the workplace. Process refers to the methods used to achieve goals, while outcomes refer to the goals achieved.
As an employee, focusing on your process and outcomes is crucial to being accepted and valued by the higher-ups. This can be done by improving the quality of your process and outcomes, and always meeting the standards set by the company. If you feel undervalued by your boss, communicate your feelings professionally and focus on the issues at hand, not the person of your boss.
As a boss, valuing your employees’ process and outcomes is crucial in maintaining healthy relationships with them. This can be done by providing constructive feedback on their process and outcomes, and giving the necessary guidance for improvement. Also, by praising and rewarding good performance, and providing the support and mentorship needed to help employees improve their performance.
