Serviced offices in Cardiff news: Competence gap 'hinders business'4th July 2011

Serviced offices in Cardiff could be some of the workplaces that are said to be being hindered by a competence gap.

The Chartered Management Institute (CMI) reports that, although 38 per cent of bosses surveyed stated they perform well in their positions, 28 per cent of employees claimed to no longer trust the skills of their employers.

Furthermore, 39 per cent asserted that they are too stressed and 34 per cent do not enjoy working anymore due to the behaviour of management.

A total of 56 per cent of members of staff have doubts about their bosses' capabilities, with 19 per cent no longer holding respect for them.

"Good managers who engage their staff and nurture a shared sense of purpose about their work will get better buy-in from their teams," Patrick Woodman, CMI policy and research manager, declared.

He added that this strategy will result in firms noticing a lower turnover of staff and higher morale.

This research corresponds with the advice of Ashley Ward, director of European Leaders, who said members of staff must be engaged by a management structure that allows them to make achievements.
