Why God Why? Why Employees Don’t Do What They Are Supposed To?! Accuprosys.com
Okay! That does happen a lot. In fact, it’s a question persistently asked by employers and managers. Why don’t employees do what they are supposed to? Surprisingly, there’s also a New York bestseller on it! Accuprosys.com
Authored by Ferdinand Fournies, the book, ‘Why Employees Don't Do What They're Supposed To and What You Can Do About It’, offers guidelines on what managers can do to fine-tune the performance at their workplace. Accuprosys.com
What this book found after reviewing real-world experiences of 25,000 managers is that there is more than one answer to the question. Accuprosys.com
Some reasons include: • They don’t know why they should do it. • They don’t know how to do it. • They don’t know what they are supposed to do. • They think your way won’t work. • They think their way is better. Accuprosys.com
They think something else has more importance. • There is no positive consequence to them for doing it. • They think they are doing it. • They are rewarded for not doing it. • They are punished for doing what they are supposed to do. • They anticipate a negative consequence for doing it.

There is no negative consequence to them for poor performance. • Obstacles are beyond their control. • Their personal limits prevent them from performing. • They have personal problems. • No one can do it. Accuprosys.com
The first twelve reasons are clearly within the control of a human resource manager and it is his responsibility to get rid of these objections. • If an employee isn’t doing what he is supposed to, it’s not just the employee’s but also the manager’s slip-up. Accuprosys.com
In his book, Fournies contends that the root cause as well as the solution for these problem points rests with the manager as well as the employee. According to him, managers can eliminate these problems by: Accuprosys.com
