Management Style: Participative Team Building
July 15th, 2007 by admin
Effective management happens when your style matches the style of your team. It is important to communicate to the team that each team member has an important role to play as part of the team, and are valued for their effort towards the team goal
How To Be An Effective Manager
I subscribe to the participative type of management. It works well, too, for online groups or teams. Why?
It has been my experience that people want to feel their efforts contributed to the organization, and are a part of the end result. I allow comments on how to make output better, faster. I encourage independent thinking, action, which means accountability. Some produce excellent results when left to make decisions, and/or handle issues that come up.
A fact revealed itself that gave me concern. A few people will bully, or take advantage of the position they hold.
I found conferencing with an individual can help, probation, for a couple weeks, indicates the seriousness of the situation, but demotion humbles. In my opinion, a pay-cut hurts less than a person assigned to a lower level job.
Proof of one’s negative behavior must be available before sanctioning. It is best to error on the side of caution, before taking a corrective action.
I prefer to discuss a problem. An individual can be having a stressful life at home. Someone to listen can often reverse one-time unacceptable mistakes.
I suggest a meeting, often, weekly, for example. It is a chance to hammer through job related items, and to uncover incidents that are inappropriate. Keep the atmosphere friendly, open.
People that see themselves as a part of the whole not only are better workers, but tend to stay with the organization longer. Satisfied employees will recommend others, and they know best what type of talent the organization needs.

People generally tend to get a credit card from various companies. With so many options available these days such as  American credit cards, and HSBC credit card, it is very tempting to get as many as possible. Then other types of credit cards are another tempting factor, for example, a travel credit card. Though the down side to all this is that it leads to major debts and forces people to get credit card consolidation loans.
