You may have noticed a drop off in my regular flow of blogs – I have all the usual excuses .. too much to do, working away, living in hotels, a new computer etc. But truth be told I’ve become a little dispirited of late with my blogging as its become a bit too much like talking to the ‘void’ .. putting out your thoughts into cyberspace with little or no feedback. Net result a tail off.,

Now I don’t think I’m alone in this. Too many of us work in organisation where we get little or no feedback. It gets so we’d rather hear something, even if it is negative, rather than nothing. Net result .. a gradual disillusionment and disengagement from the organisation.

In my experience, really excellent organisations have mastered the art of ‘little and often’ feedback, telling people what they are doing right as well as what they are doing wrong as they go along.  Net result .. mistakes get corrected quickly and the positives get reinforced, but best of all we feel like we matter.

So would it really be so hard to press the ‘like’ button?
