Whom to Make Happy :- Work or Boss

Whom to Make Happy: - Work or Boss

Nepal academy is one of the academic institution which provides Diploma in Pharmacy and Health Assistant program.

There are all together nine employee working in this institution in administrative field. This case is about two Employee. Mr Lok Raj  and Mr Ashok Chaudhary.

Mr. Lok Raj  is an employee who have survived In the organization by making boss happy. He does 10 times Namaskar to his boss every day. He pretends to do work hard whenever his boss come to observe him. Although he don’t have any work to do, he used to sit office for late hour and does attendance while leaving for home (late attendance), so that he can show that how much hour he is staying in office. He even  used to do personal (housework) of his manager like paying electricity bill, water bill to make him happy. He never behave proper way with his subordinate and peers. He even used to pass false information about his subordinate and juniors to his manager. No-one used like him in his team except his manager . He has mindset that boss is always right. Whatever boss used to instruct him, he had always answer of “Yes Yes Yes”

Mr. Ashok Chaudhary is the next employee who likes to make work happy. He believe in his work. He always used to complete his  work in given time . He is punctual, self-discipline person and self guided person. After completion of his work he used to leave home on time. The only one problem to him is he was a straight forward person who do not believe on making boss happy. He used raise voice if wrong decision was been taken by his manager.

In the mouth, manager always used to appreciate work of Mr. Ashok but in real manager used to like Mr. Lok Raj Bhatta more.  How much work Ashok used to perform but during performance Appraisal, Mr Lok Raj used to get promoted (promotion/ increment of grade).

Conclusion :- It has been observed in Nepalese Organization or even in Nepalese Political Scenario , a person who makes his boss happy ( To line manager) are seen more success rather than who makes work happy. If the employee have good relation with top level staff, his mistakes / unethical work are also neglected/ considered.  Manager become positive those employee who obeyed their decision (Wrong or Right) rather than how much he has contributed to his organization.

However, line manager should understand those person who makes work happy have more self-esteem nature and this kind of staff are observed more ethical in nature and do not like to make boss happy. They try to keep gap in the relation with manager.

 

What it the case about.

1. What is the problem in the case.
2. If you were manager what would you have done?
3. If you were employee what would you have done?

Proposer Organization Culture must be formed.

Misunderstanding in Group

Misunderstanding in Group

Mr. Dinesh Ojha is working in Corporate Organisation as a Post of Officer. To reach on this position he has done huge struggle in his life. After completing his +2 degree from age of 18, he had started his career. He had worked in various organisation from lower to medium level.

Mr. Dinesh Ojha belongs to medium level family background consists of four members. (Father, Mother, Self and Brother). By his personal nature and family background Mr. Ojha is veg and spiritual in nature. He is honest person having positive attitude and always thinks his work as God. All other family members were completely dependent on income of Mr. Ojha.  He was happy on his life and was fully dedicated to his work. He was far from Organisational politics, Union and other things (rarely used to join office party, tour, and launch). 

While working in organisation, Mr. Ojha to save money on his salary he used to travel office by walk. He used to stay alone. He used to go canteen alone so that he can have launch by saving money. As his nature is to stay alone, other colleague were amazed of his behaviour.  They used do backbiting of   Mr.  Ojha and used to say him as Mr. Alone.

But in Actual although Mr. Ojha is very social person who wants to Join group but to his financial constraints he has suppressed all his desire.

In Organisation, those staff who are more social, they are unable to save money (Conflict is seen in family life), while those staff who want to save money from their salary, they have to stay far from group.

·         What is the problem in this case?  As a member of group how you will handle this situation.

 

Relationship of Character with Team

 

If we look the words of Hindu Mahatmas, they are focused more on Barmacharya or Character

Why they are using it. 

If look towards contemporary environment, multiple relationship have become common things...

Relationship of Character of Person while working in team....

If we look nature of this kind of people..The person who are having multiple affair  (Those who have multiple relationship) have nature or blood , attitude is developed to use and throw to other person at any point of time when his personal need get ends...

Social Drinks: - Impact of it in “Self Esteem Need’’ of employee.

Social Drinks: - Impact of it in “Self Esteem Need’’ of employee.

Mr. Dinesh Bhatta is working at one of the reputed Organization. While working in organization, he has faced one situation.

If we look the corporate culture Wine also called as internationally accepted social drinks which is accepted by almost all hierarchy level . Even it is seems, many organisation also provide some refreshments allowances in budget for party celebration.

Even it has also been observed, when staff stays/ sit with customers for party. Social drinks is taken by all but the bill is normally paid by customer (Indirect benefits taken), which the new name has been given by us “Business meeting or business deal" and has been accepted in corporate life.

However, when the wine become habit to an individual, how the staff are managing their life expenses from their salary " It's an big question about integrity..

In economics to maintain life style, there are two principle.

1. Either increase your income for higher expenses to maintain good life style

2. Minimize your expenses if you don't have high income to maintain life style

For corporate job, almost second practice is good one because almost we give 10hrs a day to this job and we don't have any time to do more.

So if a wine becomes a habit and in lower amount how integrity can be managed, it is itself a big question.

However in corporate life, this type of staff are liked by all because they are quite "Social" and this type of staff are good in making personal relationship.....

Saying ethics from mouth and to have ethics in Behaviour’s is different things.

Also it has been seen, a fresh person who had never taken wine in his student’s life after entering into Job gets humiliated by various words from colleague and line manager.

Mr. Dinesh had faced problem from colleague and from line manager for this. It was his personal beliefs that he don't like to drink but his friends although knew his habit from years to year.

But when it comes to party, they forget their ethics and start to say. Let’s drink wine from today. Have a small drinks.. Corporate life will not go more without drinks.

Lesson: - Every individual has to respect belief of other.  Organization should make culture, no one should de-respect employee beliefs (By words or from body language)

Benefits of Informal Communication

 

Where the relationship is made of respect, there create gap in open communication..

Example: In organisation if a staff says sir to boss..he always tries to give respect and present and work in formal way only....

It has been observed when a manager speak informally to staff, gap of communication is lesser.. Subordinate staff become emotionally attached and want to give more time to organisation....

Respect is an Illusion

 In Job Sector, We spend our life to earn money but we earn limited money from our Salary.. Side by side ,we always expect respect from our customers..

If we look towards contemporary society, people give us artificial respect so that they can make their work done fast.

After their work is completed, very few customers miss us.. This has become the trend of contemporary environment and almost we have accepted it because we also do the same.

But why we have not understand , Respect is just Illusion and why we are expecting it. Because of expectations of respect we are missing many things.

Need expectation

 

From the concept of Maslow's Theory of Hierarchy, we can see why conflict / cold war / war/ misunderstanding takes place in Organisation..

Its simply due to person achievement of needs... Some person may be in lower level need and some may be in higher level needs...

As per my personal observations, it has been seen a person who is in various stages of needs , he creates perception, all the person / Staff are in the same need....

For example, if a manager is in esteem needs, he sees all other subordinate staff are also in same need (esteem need) and tries to treat or deal in the same way...But in Actual life , it may differ from person to person...

If manager understand the need of employee and deal in proper way, he can almost handle the internal conflict in organisation..
