The truth about management is that not all bosses are managers and not all managers are leaders. Leaders do not necessarily have to be managers, but the team will produce better if they were. Respect within the chain of command is paramount and if this is not the case, employee motivation will suffer significantly. If an employee is forced to manage their manager, morale and motivation will decrease not only for that employee but also for the entire team and company. This will place a perceived restriction on the performing employee and their work, and motivation will decrease and cause the organization to lose the effect sooner rather than later. This should not be confused with the idea that an employee feels free to do whatever they want. Autonomy must be controlled to be successful, as it will lead to problems if one or a group begins to move in the opposite direction of the goals set by the company. “Restrictions on employee autonomy have a strong impact on their state of motivation, their beliefs and their behaviors. Therefore, formal controls that restrict employee autonomy are likely to be particularly effective in encouraging desired employee behaviors, but may come at a cost” (Christ, 2012). A certain amount of employee freedom should be expected and accepted if they are to be trusted and encouraged to perform to the best of their abilities, but they should not be left alone to decide the fate of the project or company within on their own.
