Re: Workplace culture at Commercial Compliances
I would like to express my concern addressing the importance of emotions in the workplace culture that I believe we should remain aware of. I am concerned about a recent situation with Bob Sanderson and it is being handled. Unless there is additional information I am unaware of or documentation relating to this matter, my expression of concern is that by Bob’s supervisor telling him that he may not express any negative emotion in any way either verbally or nonverbally, that a mistake is being made. I, therefore, do believe this needs immediate action taken.
I would like to recommend that the human resources must review all written directives to employees before they are given to employees to

The workbook would include a few steps to also allow the employee to enter the workplace feeling the best they can before starting with the right mind frame, this can improve the production of the person by at least 50%. The workbook would ask an employee to sign in, the next step would be for all employees to ask how they feel, and then the option to write down why they are feeling this way, it then asks them to think of one positive outcome from the situation so they can find a positive mind frame before they enter the door, the next step is for all employees to think about the last time they were frustrated and why this allows all employees relieve all stress or negative/frustration thoughts occurring. The next will ask the employee to stop and elevate their thoughts, look around and realize the situation they are
Although originally written in 1983, The Managed Heart is still an up to date look at an interesting concept: combining emotional feelings with the work one does. At first glance, the notion that emotions may have an impact on one’s work environment seems almost a non-issue. However, Hochschild is not saying that; rather, Hochschild looks at the effect of emotions in the workplace, but also the interaction of those emotions with the work itself. The author’s interest in this topic began at an early age, 12, when she recounts an event in her life: her parents, part of the U.S. Foreign Service, entertained diplomats. Hochschild describes the question that came to her mind as she looked up into the smiling face of a
Increasing productivity and sparking motivation in employees, are challenges that managers, businesses, and organizations have struggled with for centuries. While there are many beliefs about which method(s) yield the best results, and what is considered to be the desired result, a ‘one-size-fits-all’ management technique still does not exist. The current movement in psychology, called Positive Psychology, focuses on what is “right” in an individual, and not on their faults. This basic concept is starting to extend its influences into the workplace, making it seem that Positive Psychology may become the key ingredient corporate culture, and all places of employment alike, have needed to promote success and satisfaction in their lines of work.
Various television shows have pushed boundaries to create positive differences in social perception of minorities, but only few have had the power and influence to make a noteworthy impact on American culture. Television Comedy has been able to cleverly impact acceptance of American Culture boundaries for years on end. From the show “Good Times” all the way to “The Office”, comedy has been an effective way of creating positive perceptions and acceptance of all different kinds of views on our society. An easily countable number of academic texts give evidence to Black-watched, Black-targeted television narratives. (Marc, 1997). Racially directed comedy television shows have, in my opinion, have been one of the most prevalent types of television
Recommendation: Employees are required to do more focused work and have better defined goals for daily work instead of passing around games and cds to share.
Workplace culture is often hard to describe, because it means something different in every organisation and many times employees feel it’s ‘just the way things are’. But so often it can define a company and when it’s not working well, everyone knows about it.

Serving as the First Sergeant (1SG) for the Lubbock Recruiting Company, the Commander and I often spent time in the Lubbock Recruiting Center performing inspections or to simply interact with the Soldiers. One day, the Commander and I were sitting at an empty work station in the rear of the Recruiting Center comparing thoughts to discuss production numbers with the Center Leaders (CL). Little did I know that an event was about to take place that would test my professionalism. Absent from my mind were thoughts regarding the need to control my emotions in the office and that the display of negativity could have been detrimental to my career.
As Democratic and Republican leaders call on Democratic Rep. John Conyers to resign in the face of multiple allegations of sexual harassment, including one that led to a settlement, the office set up by Congress to handle sexual harassment and other workplace complaints says that it is barred by law from even acknowledging that settlement or where it came from.
To begin, the Workbook Process has a few great strengths one being that it creates a better understanding and communication of Patagonia’s mission and goals to their employees. The company has been growing rapidly in the past decade and, as a result, the employees receive less information from the officers than they previously did. Since it would be impractical for the officers to meet with all of the employees every month, the Workbook Process allows the employees to have a strong voice in the company.
Expressing emotions is typically socially accepted and rewarded, however when individuals outperform others, there is a specific difference in the evaluation of that person that may not lead to honorable outcomes.
When Kreamer was confronted my her boss, Mr. Redstone, her initial reaction was to begin to cry, but some how she refrained from doing so because she thought that she would be viewed by her coworkers as unprofessional or weak. She later decided that employees should feel free to express their emotion in the workplace, especially by crying because it “stimulates the production of the feel-good neurotransmitter dopamine and restores emotional equilibrium” (Kreamer). While it may seem that crying can be beneficial, there is a place and time for conveying certain emotion. For Anne Kreamer, the Vice President of the consumer products and publishing division at Nickelodeon, letting out a few tears in the confinement of her
During my time at the soup kitchen, I had to utilize emotion management when dealing with people and situations in which it would have been inappropriate for me to react in the way that I would otherwise have wanted to. Emotion management is the act of obeying “feeling rules” and responding appropriately to situations (Brym and Lie 2012:77). For example, when a homeless man came into the soup kitchen and started to dance and shout instead of calmly sitting down and eating his meal, I courteously asked him to sit down and to try not to disturb the other guests of the establishment. Regardless of any initial emotions of fear, annoyance, or confusion, I had to respond appropriately to the situation by controlling my emotions and engaging in acceptable behavior. I especially had to utilize emotion labor, which is distinguished
In contrast with the past workplace challenges and organizational behavior, there is a necessity to understand ourselves and others. Sometimes the stress and prestige can cause an adverse impact on one’s position in the workplace. The ability to deal with our emotions while working effectually with others and at the same time, performing the organization’s expectations are in high demand. Since the employees are an asset, and the organization is expecting a return on their investment, understanding how emotions work and how it impacts one’s capacity is indispensable in accomplishing organizational goals. In the workplace, people often have to work with each other. So the handling of relationships and interacting with others becomes the key to the success of the organization. Managers need to have a combination of skills and abilities such as the strength of will, awareness of self, empathy for others and sensitivity toward others internally and externally. Before one can handle others emotions he/she must first learn to lead themselves. So the question become, how is this done? Coleman’s theory suggest that this can be done through emotional intelligence which is the ability to create, build and maintain viable relationships (Coleman, 1998, p. 14). No one wants to follow the leadership of a person who cannot manage his/her emotions. Let’s look together at three business CEO’s personal backgrounds and use of emotional intelligence. The top chief emotions officers in the U.S.
Attitudes and emotions in the workplace are extremely important because they dictate job performance. The emotions that people go through are something that cannot be avoided; however, they can be manipulated. Managers, leaders, CEO’S of companies learn to do this by experience and training. They manipulate employee’s emotions with the purpose of achieving better performance and satisfy an organization’s goals. Although people have always had different emotions, the notion that managers need to care for employee’s satisfaction and happiness is newly implemented in the workplace. In this paper, I will be explaining the impact of attitudes in the workplace, how mood, emotions, attitudes and behavior affect job performance and I will implement the point of view of the CEO of the Defense Commissary Agency, Mr. Joseph Jeu.
