•
•
•
• Location of the team
Size of the team including number of resources
Skills needed both technical and interpersonal
Virtual teams are difficult to lead due to the physical
distance and lack of daily face to face contact
• Co-located team seems to be more productive and
effective due to more communication and stronger
relationships bond
• Learn and understand the expectations of behavior in
many cultures BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.1 CATEGORIES OF
INTERACTIONS
• Superiors or Bosses
• Colleagues or Peers
• Subordinates or Juniors
• Dealing with each category requires definite skills which
have to be mastered if one is to rise in the organizational
hierarchy BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.2 INTERACTION WITH
SUPERIORS
• Boss is always the boss, though he may not be always
right
– There may be serious differences of opinion with the boss, but
ultimately, the will or opinion or decision of the boss will prevail – Boss is more accountable than the subordinates and will have to
answer the consequences of his decisions and actions BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Rather than be a “Yes Man” and agree with everything
the boss says, the subordinate must definitely express
his views and opinions for the consideration of the boss • If the boss chooses to ignore suggestions or overrule
decisions taken by the subordinate, he does so at his
own discretion and risk BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Certain bosses who flatly refuses to accept any
suggestions coming from the subordinates, even though
his suggestions are basically sound and would be
interest of the organization • Such individuals suffer from a sense of insecurity and
are afraid that implementation of the suggestions would
highlight their own shortcomings and bring credit to the
subordinates at their own expense BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • What the boss forgets is that credit for achievement or
good performance first goes to the boss for his ability to
get work done • The subordinate only gets a part of the credit received by
the boss BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.3 BOSS HAS GREATER
ACCESS TO INFORMATION
• By virtue of position in the organization, the boss has
greater access to vital information affecting the wellbeing of the organization • Some of the decisions may appear to be ill-conceived or
wrong, however it is more likely that a particular decision
may be based on certain information not available to the
subordinate BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.4 BOSS IS MORE BUSY
• Responsibilities of the boss are considerably greater
than those of the subordinates
• The time at his disposal for dealing with particular
problem is naturally less than the time available with the
subordinate
• Therefore it is the duty of subordinate to do his
homework well, work out options in any given situation
and then put them for consideration and final decision
with his own recommendation BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.5 BOSS IS UNDER
GREATER PRESSURE
• By virtue of his position and responsibility, boss is under
greater pressure to meet targets and deadlines • Some pressure is bound to get transferred down to lower
levels resulting in FIRING
• Firing is a part of the game and has to be accepted as
such
• One must not be too sensitive to such firings and must
develop a somewhat thick skin in such matters BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • On the other hand, the skin should not be so thick that
firing has no effect at all
• On occasion, unpleasant talk may appear to be entirely
unreasonable
• Outcome of firing of the juniors, who, in turn, may take it
to out on their wives and children BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.6 INTERACTION WITH
COLLEAGUES
• Individuals who are more or less at the same level in the
hierarchy
• Engineers performing shift duty and reporting to
Manager
• Department heads reporting to the Production Manager
• Functional Heads reporting to Unit Head
• Project Engineers reporting to Project Managers
• Project Managers reporting of Head, Projects BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Feeling of cordiality, cooperation, mutual trust and
atmosphere of healthy competition
• This is easier said than done
• Politics is an integral feature of any organization, as
each individual tries to catch the eye of the boss and
advance his own cause for promotion BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • If the competition leads to confrontation and undermining
the position of others, working is bound to suffer • Personal equations can lead to formation of groups that
adversely affect organizational working BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.7 INTERACTION WITH
SUBORDINATES
• An engineer in a supervisory position or a manager is
responsible not only for his own actions, but also for the
actions of all those working under his direction
• Delegation: A successful manager once said, “I never do
anything which I can get done by a subordinate”
• This is an excellent way to motivate subordinates and at
the same time freeing the boss from routine matters and
giving him time to concentrate on important issues BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Delegation does not imply that the boss is absolved of
responsibility for that actions of his subordinates, he should
keep a watchful eye over their activities and issue necessary
direction.
• Earn the respect of subordinates
– It is easy to get work done if subordinates hold the boss in esteem and
respect
– Sound knowledge and thorough understanding of plant or process are
vitally important
– Boss should be capable of doing at least 80% of the work done by each
one of its subordinates
– 20% of his own work should be such that none of his subordinates can
do so effectively BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Issue clear instructions
– Instructions have no meaning if they are vague and likely to be
misinterpreted
– Some managers are in the habit of deliberately leaving
instructions vague and then pulling juniors for not acting one way
or the other • Descend to the level of subordinates
– Boss must express himself in a language which the subordinates
can understand BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.8 DEFINE JURISDICTION
• Areas wherein the subordinate is free to take his
own decisions according to established norms
and guidelines
• Boss will not be troubled with low level decisions
• Subordinate must have clear idea about
– what he can do without informing the boss at all
– what he can do first and inform later
– what he can do only after getting approval BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.9 CATEGORIZE
SUBORDINATES
1. Those Who Work On Their Own Initiative 2. Those Who Work Only After Receiving Directives Or
Guidelines 3. Those Who Do Not Work Even After Receiving
Directives And Guidelines BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.10 SUBORDINATE PROBLEMS ARE
ULTIMATELY BOSSES’ PROBLEMS
• Any Deficiency In Working Have To Be Removed By
Concerted Effort • Boss Cannot Get Away By Saying That These Problems
Have To Be Tackled By Junior Staff Alone
• Boss Has To Get Involved And Issue Necessary
Directions To Solve The Problems
• It Is The Boss Who Will Have To Answer For The
Working Of All Sections Under His Charge BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.11 STRIVE TO BECOME
REDUNDANT
• Every Supervisor Or Manager Must Strive To Make
Himself Redundant And Superfluous
• Effort Must Be Made To Evolve Systems
And
Procedures, So That Working Is Not Affected In The
Absence Of Supervisor / Manager BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.13.12 TRAIN SUPERVISOR TO
TAKE YOUR PLACE
• Advancement Is Easy If There Is Someone Who Can
Assume Charge Of The Vacated Position • Manager Should Train His Subordinates Adequately, Not
Only To Reduce His Workload But Also To Facilitate His
Own Advancement At The Appropriate Time BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • Some Managers Are Unduly Secretive And Habitually Conceal
Documents And Information From Subordinates
• Many Organizations Force Their Employee To Avail Due Leave And
Do Not Permit Leave Accumulation To A Certain Level
– Excellent Practice And Serves To Motivate
Subordinates For Higher Responsibilities And Train – Simultaneously, The Boss Returns Refreshed After Leave To Do
Greater Justice To His Responsibilities BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus BE FAIR AND APPEAR TO BE
FAIR
• Justice Must Not Only Be Done But Seen To Be Done
• Boss Must Be Fair, But Also Appear To Be Fair To His
Subordinates
• All Subordinates Should Be Treated On Merits As Far As
Distribution Of Assignments And Prospects For
Advancement Are Concerned BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus • It Is Natural To Develop Liking Or Dislike For Various
Subordinates • One Must Not Get Carried Away By Subjective Criteria
• Friendship And Personal Relations With Subordinates
Should Not Act As Obstacles To Advancement
• The Recommended Person Should Reduce
Workload Of The Boss And Make His Life Easier The BITS Pilani, Pilani Campus 1.14 DECISION MAKING
• Most Problems A...
