A Biblical View of Work

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

The bible speaks directly about work. So does your boss- or at least he thinks that he is a god or god in his own mind.
Whatever you do , work at it with all your hear, as working for the Lord , not for men , since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as your reward. It is the Lord Christ that you are serving”.

Does that not sound like your boss , or that edict – that triple memo from head office ( bosses of bosses , boss heaven) that you just received Sunday night by registered mail.

Practicing Managers – Remove 1/2 of the Brain

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

While it may be said that there are research bases for the principles and baseline of the science of management lots of luck when the basis entry level standard for candidates for management is to surgically remove at least 1/2 of their brains is the standard or standard process.

This may well be the loss of the management toolkit- stocked with a limited range of options and reactions none of which are effective in any manner or manners under most circumstances . So says management guru Riteway Strokon.

As an example it may be said that while counseling may be a useful tool with some problem employees ( such as Noell Vandal) , it is less than totally worthless with others. One behavioural , psychological or legal approach or attack may not be more useful in tact than another.

Does it work ? So says the science of the management. Againa and again – hypothesis , trial , hypothesis , trial , approach , application. Most craftsmen , as opposed to many if not most management scientists know full well that different tools are used in different jobs and in diffirent or similar job applications on the work site.

The View from the Top Part 2

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

In the first 11 years of “my career” of my “professional career” I wrestled with these issues as a “practicing manager” ( an oxymoron if you ever heard one) and human resources executive . As a problem arena, it is both a legal and psychological , both policy and politics , stress and mess.

In the last ten years I have had the opportunity to work ( work ? better torment and cause needless trouble and heartbreak, all for my ego- a legend in my own mind only) on a consulting basis for thousands and thousands of organizations and seen the universal nature of the problem – “We have seen the problem and it is us”.

It cuts across all industries , job descriptions , ages and educational levels. My client firms continually request assisitance with the problem.

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

Managing problem people is the most frustrating part of management. Employees who cannot or will not perform are so out of sync with the manager’s own desire for achievment that they represent an almost insuperable communication problem. In top of the managers daily work pressures are heaped from the unwanted load of a few people who demand a disproportionate share of time attention.

I Came Away from the Experience Shaking my Head

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

I came away from the experience shaking my head . I certainly did not feel that I had anything substantial in that meeting. What a waste of time and effort. Maybe the presence of a live audience helped our boss feel substantial and needed and necessary. Who needs such stupidity ?

It required time , patience , time and effort to put up with such stupidity. All for little apparent gain and game.

The Rules are Golden and They are MY RULES

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

A large group of us from work had taken an entire evening to travel from the suburbs into the city and site in a studio for over three hours -all to provide a live audience for our pastor’s TV program. Every couple of weeks the bosses would evaluate us “for own good”. Lot of luck.

The same people who beat you up in the sandbox when you were four years old are now in charge. Woody Allen said that “Those that don’t do teach those that cannot teach manage”.

What on earth can a manager teach an experienced employee who is on the front lines , is productive and has proven so by being gainfully employed a number of years by the firm or the specified industry.

Nothing more than self justification of insecure individuals to keep their so called perks and privileges. Perks can be defined as things given to management that in no way can be justified.

Bosses Stealing Your Work

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

Everyone has dealt with a credit-stealing coworker. And while wrestling recognition for your hard work and bright ideas from a glory-grabbing colleague can be tricky, you can usually resolve the situation by tactfully confronting the individual or, if that fails, bringing the issue to the attention of your manager.

But what do you do when your boss — the person who has significant control over your career — is the one taking credit for your ideas? After all, being too direct or going over his or her head can get you into trouble. Following are a few strategies that might help.

* Think carefully before complaining. Let’s say you spent weeks devising a cost-efficiency campaign that becomes a smashing success, but, at a meeting with higher-ups, your boss takes credit. You might feel slighted, but hold off on raising a fuss. First, make sure you’re the one who truly deserves the credit. Even if you proposed the idea, consider the role your boss played in implementing the initiative — he or she may have done the heavy lifting.

In addition, think about whether your manager’s scene-stealing antics are rare or standard operating procedure. If the behavior is infrequent, it might be best to let it go and accept that all employees, at times, are expected to make the boss look good in front of the company’s top brass.

* Put it on paper. If your supervisor often takes your best ideas from private conversations and passes them off as his or her own, consider changing the way you share your suggestions. For instance, you could present them in written memos or email messages. This establishes a paper or electronic trail you can reference later during your performance review — or if your value to the organization is ever questioned.

* Get a witness. One way to ensure that others know a solution originated with you is to unveil it publicly. But whether you copy colleagues on an e-mail or make your pitch at a meeting, be aware that you’re taking a risk. While it will be harder for anyone else to take full credit if your plan works, you’re on the hook if it falls flat.

* Confront with kindness. If your manager’s actions are hindering your advancement or limiting your visibility within the company, it might be time to speak up. But be tactful. Your boss will be more receptive to the conversation if, instead of taking an accusatory tone, you simply ask for guidance on how to receive recognition for your efforts. This enables you to get your point across without pointing fingers or putting your boss on the defensive.

Finally, in some situations, you might determine that it’s wisest to say or do nothing about your supervisor’s “credit problem.” While it can be frustrating to watch your boss receive praise for your hard work or brilliant concept, there is a bright side: Your contributions and ideas are valuable and helping the company succeed.

Horror Boss Story 1

No comments · Posted by admin in Uncategorized

“Meryl Streep’s cold-hearted character in “The Devil Wears Prada” has nothing on real-life bosses gone bad. Consider the boss who gave an employee a written reprimand for “leaving work without permission” — after she passed out in the bathroom and was whisked by ambulance to a nearby hospital.”
