When we hit a road block on an actual road we automatically think to what is causing it and what route we should have taken to avoid it. It is too late to change our decision to take this route on this occassion but we make a mental note to take another route the next time we are headed for this destination or at least make some enquiries as to whether we face delays if we want to take the same route on the next ooccassion we travel this way.

Then why do we accept personal or procedural road blocks in the workplace? Why don’t we recognise these road blocks and change the direction we want to tae or have others take? Why don’t we make enquiries, find a root cause and fix the problem? Is it just human nature?

Below you will find what I feel are avoidable road blocks in the work place and give you some suggestions to get the traffic flowing freely.
