The weight of solving this issue does not rest entirely on the employer. If you’re an adult with a job, you have a responsibility to earn your keep and go to your supervisor and have a conversation rather than communicating your dissatisfaction on social media. That’s not easy.

Takeaways of Note:
Leaders may have to make the first move
1. Communicate – routine “check-ins” allow us to discern & gauge common issues and address them; we can’t handle problems we’re not aware of
2. Set expectations – set boundaries & convey responsibilities to help Team manage work; provide learning opportunities to enhance skills & personal career growth
3. Cultivate trust – as long as work is getting done, the 9-to-5 clock needs to be thrown out
