Most Managers now wait until their people do something exactly right before they praise them.  As a result, many people never get to become high performers because their managers concentrate on catching them doing things wrong– that is, anything that falls short of the final desired performance. After getting punished for a while and not knowing what acceptable behavior is, these people would go into the corner of the room and  not move.  To them it is a hostile environent and not worth taking any risks in. 

That is what most managers do with new, inexperienced people.  They welcome them aboard, take them around to meet everybody, and then they leave them alone.  Not only do they not catch them doing anything approximately right, but periodically they zap them just to keep moving.  This is the most popular leadership style of all.  They call it the "leave alone-zap" style.  You leave the person alone, expecting good performance from them, and when you don’t get it, you zap them. 

So what happen to these people?  Definitely these people will do as little as possible.  They really do not produce– either quantity or quality.  Thus it affect the organization and the business today.  Much of the reason of poor business performance is simply because the people are managed so poorly.
