Transparency and goal setting help make
the office a better environment
The Mountain View, Calif. tech
giant’s Head of Human Resources, Laszlo Brock, is revealing his secrets for
improving workplace happiness in a new book, “Work Rules!.” Among his pointers:
Make sure people have goals and understand why those goals exist.
From the Wall Street Journal’s
preview of Brock’s new book:
“Whether you’re talking about manual trades or computer science and
teaching, there’s a sense that ‘I just gotta do my dumb job’—but it doesn’t
have to be that bad,” says Mr. Bock, who speaks with the congenial urgency of a
TED speaker or TV chef.
The
way to make work better, insists Mr. Bock, is through transparency, goal
setting, frequent performance reviews, and a less-hierarchical work structure
that empowers employees to solve problems for themselves while encouraging them
to critique their bosses just as often as they critique themselves and each
other. Plus, as Mr. Bock emphasizes again and again in his book, it’s essential
that you hire the right people—smart, conscientious, and humble. (Although some
might argue with the notion of humility being Google’s strongest suit.)”
