Everyone knows each of these types: the doers, the observers, and the recipients. And most of us are some combination of the three, with any one person rarely in one single camp or another. If you do know anyone who’s one single type, they may be the subject of a lot of gossip. For a discussion about this and perhaps other side topics, join us!

Q6. How can a Doer’s awareness of being watched by Observers (the Hawthorne effect) alter their performance, motivation, and the authenticity of their actions? #DigiBlogChat

Q7. Discuss the ethical responsibilities of an Observer. At what point, if any, does an Observer have a moral obligation to intervene and become a Doer, particularly in situations involving harm to a Recipient? #DigiBlogChat

Q8. In workplace dynamics, how can a manager effectively navigate the roles of Doer (implementing policy), Observer (monitoring team performance), and Recipient (receiving feedback from employees) to foster a positive environment? #DigiBlogChat
