Do you ever fail to follow through on your promises to staff members?

King Solomon taught, "For oppression makes a wise man mad..." (Eccl. 7:8 NASB).

If we fail to keep commitments to our staff, we may believe we are being shrewd and saving money or getting more out of people than they agreed.

Some employees may not complain, but our strongest performers will become quietly angry and begin to seek employment elsewhere.

The long-term result is a weaker business team.

Keep your promises in the workplace and keep your key players on the team.
