Business leaders and the Government are being urged to take a stand against poor people management, which is too often the cause of bullying, conflict and stress in the workplace and a significant factor in the UK’s productivity gap. The call comes as the CIPD and Acas publish joint guidance on how to be a better boss and urge the Government to help address the UK’s people management skills deficit. The two organisations launched the ‘five-a-day’ fundamentals of good management at their joint Resilience through Recession conference because of their belief that the country faces a huge challenge to raise the level of people management skills among its 4 million managers if it is to improve productivity. Developed from CIPD and Acas research and practical experience of management development, the ‘five-a-day’ management fundamentals are grouped under the following headings: managing work now and in the future; managing the team; managing the individual; managing conflict and difficult situations: managing yourself. Under each heading, there are practical tips to help managers become better bosses. Said Jackie Orme, chief executive of the CIPD, “It is the quality of day-to-day line management which will decide whether your employees will stay and put in the extra effort needed for your organisation to emerge fighting fit as the economy recovers.” More information from www.cipd.co.uk
