First things first......It's MORALE not moral. Moral is the singular of morals, which of course is the basis of INTEGRITY.
Morale is the general feeling or attitude about your environment, or in this case the institution we all belong to as a group, Con-way freight.
Secondly, Fortune 500 rates management on the monetary performance. Con-way is admired for it's ability to make money, not manage people. The esprit de corps or morale, is directly impacted by management and their ability, or lack there of, to mange people. Unforunately, the needle points to the latter in this case. With con-way it's all about the benjamins, and anything else is lip service or compliance. I do not feel valued as an employee. I feel as though I am expendable, just a warm body in a seat. Yes I am offered good pay and benefits, but those are in place to keep me coming back and not go shopping for another seat to fill. Morale sucks here because of the way we are treated here. The rules change daily, or at least the interpretation does. I've said it before and I'll say it again. It starts at the top and trickles down. When I attended the Primary leadership development course in the Army, they stated that leadership is shown by example. Trust is earned and not given. Respect is commanded rather than demanded. Don't tell me what to do, show me. Don't ask me to do anything you wouldn't do or haven't done. Treat me fair, lead by example, and I'll follow you into a burning building. Do anything else and I'll lock you in there. enough of my ranting.
have a SAFE day!
