One of life’s greatest frustrations is taking charge of your destiny as the leader of an organization. Many individuals and consequently, the businesses they may come to lead, get stuck in their path to success. They mire in self-doubt, in self-sabotaging behaviors, and never truly reach their goals.
Management in organizations often entrusts a delegation of like-minded department members or community volunteers to support specific tasks to achieve an end result.

It’s so disrespectful. We all know individuals who avail themselves of this behavior trait. While others show up early, prepared with their work, spending some time socializing perhaps, or, perhaps a meal, the culprits just do not respect others enough to show up on time and may affect the purpose of a team.
Blame is a very potent tool that can be used to intimidate, dishearten and sabotage the culture of a workplace.
