The High Value of Praise in IT
A recent Pew survey suggests a very bleak view of the information technology and other professional worlds. Supposedly 70% of most American workers, apparently including IT contractors, IT recruiters, and other IT professionals, are not inspired by their jobs. While there is much speculation for the reasons for so much disgruntlement, IT staffing companies and IT consultants who dislike their jobs can benefit from some very simple actions. IT managers can make a huge impact by increasing the praise they offer to their reports and the technical recruiters who work for them. IT jobs, like any other job, are always made more pleasant when supervisors are encouraging. Even when resumes and productivity reports suggest somebody is meeting all expectations, hearing praise for it verbally makes a big difference for IT headhunters, IT recruiting agencies, and the clients and candidates they work with. With a free, easy change to management style, IT recruiting firms and many other kinds of companies can make a big change in their employee job satisfaction.
