A recent change in our organization was internal. It was the recent restructuring of the managerial hierarchy, which led to addition of a new head member on the management team. This individual was assigned to the team midway through a crucial project and had to be brought up to speed as well as be given room to input his own ideas into a new team-building program we were creating. Our groups key elements to ensuring a smooth integration in this change by using pieces of Lewins change model and some aspects of Kotters eight steps for leading organizational change. They were implemented as follows: First we applied Unfreezing by realizing that with new management comes new ideas and rules to follow so it was imperative for us to decrease the strength of our old values, attitudes and behaviors in order to understand his new way of managing and formulating ideas of project developments. Next we used worked on change as Lewin described but geared it towards a personal level. Our managerial staff, Shawn Stecher, Pernice Walker and Michael Held, organized a meeting to facilitate a new module on training while allowing the new manager to explain his approach and how we would all be a part of that. By doing so it limited the resistance from the team and reassured them they were gaining a partner not an authoritative figure, we were all on the same managerial team working together and the new manager assured us of that and we welcomed him Finally we implemented two of Kotters eight steps, we built a stronger guiding team and created a vision and did it right, together!
Our team uses several key techniques to keep the staff motivated Understanding motivation drives performance. Because of this we aim to keep our team interested, engaged and goal driven. Examining the type of employees we have on our staff and assigning tasks accordingly. Those employees that are need based are given tasks that push them to succeed by allowing them to us their skills to achieve in areas of power such as the heading up of projects in their area of expertise or being in charge of small groups whose job is to brain storm for new ideas.
For those that are easily bored or sided tracked and get displaced due to repetition, we use vertical loading by providing them the ability to move into new areas and rotate projects of different levels every few months to get them to grow in other areas of the company while learning new assignments and functions.
We offer all of our staff monetary incentives, upward mobility and a sense of choice that allows them to always stay engaged in every area of the business. We feel it is important to not only make team building and training programs for other business but utilize those team building skills in our own business. We make sure there is an element of expectancy and a reward outcome explained so that each member stays driven.
Handling conflict is very important in our company since our whole mission is to make working as a team fun and feasible for other companies by the use of our training programs. Most of the conflict our company faces is inter-group conflict due to lack of understanding or being improperly informed about a situation. The key ways in which we handle conflict are as follows: - In meetings we use the dialectic method by having a structured debate of the viewpoints in question before making a decision. Our goal is to listen, be sensitive to what is being stated by our team and be cooperative rather than competitive. - For person to upper management conflict we have an open door policy where all employees can confidentially discuss any concerns - We use negotiating techniques along with compromise to come to an equal but fair ground. There can be a win-win for all parties - Mediation with management when only two mid or lower level staff members are involved in the conflict Use the obliging style when able.
