Tension among the staff team is the last thing that any business owner would want. It would make it difficult for the staff of the organization to work. It gets worse when the tension is caused by the owner of the business himself or herself.

It's important to understand that tension within a team can arise for many reasons, and in many cases, the business owner's attitude plays a crucial role. A common mistake that can generate conflict is a lack of clear communication. When an owner doesn't express their expectations or changes transparently, employees can feel confused or demotivated, which increases tension. Another action that can create problems is a lack of recognition or fairness in decision-making, such as favoritism or preferential treatment, which can breed resentment. Furthermore, imposing changes without consulting the team or explaining the reasons can generate resistance and discontent. An owner who also acts in an authoritarian manner, without listening to their employees or valuing their opinions, definitely creates a tense environment. Ultimately, the key lies in open communication, respect, and transparency to prevent these actions from generating internal conflicts.

Any act of favouritism towards a particular staff from the higher ups of the organisation would definitely create tension among the staff.
