Research shows that the two most common complaints in organisations worldwide are 'nobody ever tells us' and 'nobody ever asks us'. The best of motives consists of two videos which tackle each of these issues.

In part 1: Nobody ever tells us, a manager believes that his staff are idle and need constant chasing. However he is failing to put their roles into context and not until he receives the same treatment from his fitness instructor does he realise that he needs to adopt a more motivational approach. This means keeping people informed, knowing how to measure performance and offering praise and encouragement.
