How does policy either motivate or undermine employee performance?



How does policy either motivate or undermine employee performance?
   

In an excerpt from a November 20th post in the Procurement Insights Blog titled "How Leadership Repeatedly Under-Mines Their Most Valuable Procurement Asset" (see below), I discussed the impact that current procurement policies and environments have on purchasing professionals within their respective organizations.

Question: From your perspective as a senior executive, how would you have avoided a situation like the one referenced in the post? How does policy either motivate or undermine employee performance?

Blog Excerpt:

At a recent conference in which my Dangerous Supply Chain Myths seminar was introduced to a new audience, I was related a story that was both compelling and disconcerting. Compelling in that it clearly demonstrated a lack of stakeholder collaboration, disconcerting in that it is an occurrence that is played over and over again within public and private sector organizations throughout North America.
