Inertia effect

Article Abstract:

The continuing trend in businesses towards downsizing has left remaining staff with a defensive attitude towards their own positions and an unwillingness to be open about their own areas of work. They will also try to hide any errors they make for fear of the possible consequences. Such actions show the need for managers to develop high levels of trust within their companies and to encourage risk taking. If those who take risks are punished for possible mistakes, they will be afraid to ever take risks again and the organisation may lose valuable opportunities to progress.
