The power of voice and touch

A leader needs to match his actions with his words and tone. Likewise, company leadership needs to connect its voice with its touch. A gap between the company's voice and its touch is disastrous in teambuilding efforts. One reason for this disparity is that the employees misunderstand the message. Trust must be established between top management and workers. A useful tool in enforcing a teamwork environment and making sure the company's voice and touch are consistent is the performance review. Companies must be committed to establishing a teamwork environment.
