Identifying Genuine Proactivity Distinguishing between genuine proactivity and mere busywork can be challenging. Leaders must ensure that they are rewarding meaningful actions that contribute to the organization’s goals.
Maintaining Fairness and Consistency It’s crucial to maintain fairness and consistency in rewarding proactivity. Favoritism or inconsistent recognition can lead to resentment and decreased morale among team members.
Avoiding Over-Reliance on Rewards While rewards are important, it’s essential not to create an environment where employees only act proactively for the sake of rewards. Leaders should foster a culture where proactivity is a natural part of the organizational ethos.
