Listen Later

Stop being nice at work. Managers cannot be nice and still increase performance personally and of their team. I explain what managers should do instead and take you through 7 actions to stop being nice at work will helping improve team performance. 

 ---

Leaders and managers cant be nice and lead a team effectively. There are so many difficult decisions and situation where being nice is detrimental to you and your team. There are a ton of problems with being too nice at work for anyone:

1.      You get swamped with work you can’t possibly deliver

2.      You are seen as a walk over and people take advantage of you

3.      Respect, appreciation and authority are drastically reduced

4.      Your ability to your job is a lot lower (for pretty much any position)

I share some of the classic signs of being too nice at work and explain why they cause you (and your team) such big problems. Stop being too nice at work. 

Being very nice to others does not actually win you more people who like you. In my experience, it creates the opposite effect because you are not being genuine and honest and people sense this. People don’t like those they don’t trust and know. This is also the problem with being too nice at work – being too nice is harmful. 

I then share 7 actions you should take (particularly as a leader or manager) at work to stop being too nice and position yourself to do a better job and/or increase team performance. Be fair not nice at work. Stop being too nice to people.
