Anyone else tired of all the repeat emails and “friendly reminders” that they forward about engagement activities and stuff that’s easily found on flagscape?! Why do they complicate things and fill up our mailbox with duplicate garbage?
If we had the time, or if we were interested, we would dig in and participate.
I’m already exhausted with having to be on endless calls planning engagement activities that I don’t have the capacity to deal with to begin with.. and then they take 3 weeks to “run it by leadership” just to get word that they went in a different direction or made their own decisions.. which then leads to a fire-drill for us engagement “volunteers” (aka Volun-told) to share with our teams.. it’s such a waste of time! They have 15 people on their business support team, so why don’t they just handle it?! And why do they send emails out asking one person in an Org to follow up on past due learning or updating their contact numbers
?!? Just assign someone on your team of 15 to get it done! It’s so d-mb that they pass all this work on to us.. ITS THEIR JOB!
I’m just dreading all the engagement stuff that they’re going to try and ramp up close to the holidays, which always is added stress for those of us who have to deal with planning this cr-p! Want to make employees happy.. let them focus on their actual job, get their work done, and go home to their families!
