 Asleep at the switchexecutives being unaware of important issues among the workforce and growing union sentiment among the workforce.
 Appointing a committeeemployer forming a committee to manage the union election campaign. The problems here are that (1) promptness is essential in an election situation and committees are slow (2) most committee members are NLRB neophytes, whose views reflect hope rather than experience (3) a committee's decision is usually a compromise decision, not necessarily the most effective one.
 Concentrating on money and benefitemployees may want more money, but quite often, if they feel the company treats them fairly, decently, and honestly, they are satisfied with reasonable, competitive rates and benefits. It is only when they feel ignored, uncared for, and disregarded that money becomes a major issue to express their dissatisfaction.
 Delegating too much to divisionsfor companies with plants scattered around the country, unionizing one or more plants tends to lead to unionizing others. Dealing effectively with unionsmonitoring employee's attitudes, reacting properly when the union appears, and so ongenerally requires centralized guidance from the main office and its human resources staff.
