Motivation and Leadership
Name
Institution Affiliation
The policy of “what is best for the employees is best for the company and vice versa” do vary from one organization to another due to the variation in the leadership that the organizations have and also the difference in the objectives of the organizations (Brescoll, 2011). Poor leadership in an organization result in poor performance of the employees, and also most organization look into ways in which they can utilize the employees to the maximum but not considering the appreciation of the employees when they make the organization to achieve some of their goals or meet their target (Brescoll, 2011). This, therefore, makes it difficult to implement the policy.
The definition of “doing your best” varies from one person to another and also from one organization to the other. The variations depend on the type of management of the organization and also the individual perception of doing the best. The definition also depends on the rules and regulations guiding the employees in a given firm. On the other hand, slackers are likely to perceive their best when they are in different condition. For instance, when they are under constant supervision, they are likely to deliver their best to the organization. And also when they are frequently motivated for the good work, then they do their best (Chamorro-Premuzic, 2014).
In most cases, it is the manager that tries, by all means, possible to ensure that the rules and regulations guiding the employees are followed.

And also it is the manager who supervises the work done (Chamorro-Premuzic, 2014). Therefore, the managers are capable of modeling the required behavior in employees. The managers are normally supervised by the CEO of the firm, and they are normally held accountable for through auditing and also the viewing of the productivity of the employees who work under him/her.
