What suggestions do you have for management?
"Create an accurate budget, provide budgets for different departments (especially revenue generating departments that need to do cost benefit analysis), provide necessary training, provide regular reviews, bonuses and raises, make the organization much more transparent, get rid of under-performing employees or those who engage in unethical/unprofessional behavior. I would make it a requirement to experience the programs first-hand to better understand the mission and feel a commitment to and understanding of what we're working for. I would hire an HR manager that could protect us from illegal/unprofessional behavior and questions from higher ups and could provide accurate information on simple things like how much vacation time I actually have and what rate I accrue it at. I would make sure higher ups are not interfering with their employees' work in ways that are counterproductive, making more stress and work for no reason and making their jobs more difficult for nothing."
