You: “We’re always behind because you don’t make enough money!”
Him: “I’m doing the best I can, whaddya want from me, blood?”
If it meant more money, you might just say “yes.”
Unfortunately, all you’d really get is more of what you’re getting right now – nothing.
Good managers in the workplace know that you don’t get people to perform better and produce more, by yelling at them and browbeating them. You get more from people by encouraging what they’re already doing right and supporting them in doing even better.
Rein in your frustration, take a deep breath and start looking for what he’s doing right. Applaud that, and find ways to support his efforts.
It will pay off in a way that nagging never does . . .
