Ask a Manager

OCTOBER 31, 2016

I’m not allowed to buy my own office chair. Having big issues with my back pain and several scary looking diagnoses, I asked our manager if I can buy an ergonomic chair with high adjustability and pay for it myself. It’s five answers to five questions. Here we go…. The answer was “no, I am not sure we are insured for this.”

I was able to flag my mentor’s attention and step out, thankfully, but it had me wondering, what should I do in the future if something like this happens during a meeting I can’t leave? They explained they prefer full-time in office, so this equipment policy seems to be promoting people to come in five days per week.

Managers, mentors and trainers that are equipped to coach, inspire and bring out the best in their people. Coaching and mentoring shouldn’t stop after an employee’s initial on-boarding process. Beyond the salary and the benefits, employees want to know that their work matters. Provide ongoing coaching and training.
