When employees finally front up

I am working with a client at the moment working through redundancies - not a pleasant task.

We asked for submissions by the staff and SLOWLY over time a few came forward to express their views on how others were lazy and how the place could be better run

No doubt they want to protect their own position (and who wouldn't). But what I find interesting is that it took a crisis to get them to front up with their real and honest views.

Leason that management did not provide the safe environment for these views to be freely expressed isn't it? - may have meant a happier workplace.
