sa Avoiding....


between a supervisor and a subordinate

If the supervisor is too strict, the employee under him would avoid making conversations or even contact with such because of the employee's different fears like making mistakes, not being able to meet deadlines, even discussing his schedule adherence. So the employee doesn't see his supervisor as a friend or anything more than a supervisor. He avoids things that will indulge him into conversing with his supervisor.


uhmmm......i'm not really sure if sakto koh..hehehe try lng

reminds me of nursing management...hehehe

ako sa avoiding, katong gi-lay off mi sa among gi-trabahoan, there was a colleague of ours who wanted to fight the management and force them to keep us in the company...well, her motives were honorable and she was fighting the good fight...but as for my friends, di na mi ganahan ug samok, besides we only took the job as a pastime...

so when the day came for us to sign our termination papers, she met with me and my friends and discussed some strategies that we could use to get even with our boss...what we did with my friends was that we kept straying the topic until she got the message that although we sympathized with her, we had no intention of joining her in her crusade : (

i dont think so asa ni na-belong...

maybe avoiding!

situation like this, ang concern sa work is ikaw dapat directly ang i-address sa problema,but what happen is gi-relay ang concern sa imu kauban,which is indirect kaayu sa imu,u dont even know if that msg or concern u received is mao ba jud,another is dli ka ka-confront sa imu boss directly pud...
y not straight u up?? d bah?

another is,gi-kasab-an ka in front of your workmate,y not talk in private just the two of you?

results---conflict -> silent protest!hehehe...pen and paper will help!
a boss is a boss,a subordinate is a subordinate!

communication or feedbacking is still important to improve watever kind of such relationship.

hope it can help darkphoenix

In our office we somehow mix "Collaborating and Yielding". We encourage teamwork and our "Team Leaders" are required to listen and evaluate what the best course of action will be. Everyone in the team has an equal voice but ultimately, it is the decision of management that would still prevail (but this is heavily influenced by the collective proposed solutions). We give each and everyone an opportunity to present their ideas and as a team, come up with a better solution. For us 10 ordinary collaborative minds is better than 10 exceptional but individual minds.

In a nutshell, we collaborate and yield to the collective idea.

On Competing or Forcing:

In our workplace we have this so called "proper channeling" of concerns/issues. Whenever a staff has issue, say for example with his compensation and benefits, he addresses his concern to his first line supervisor then his supervisor then gives feedback to the Payroll Dept. in this way they'll be informed of the staff's problem properly. However there are some cases when our issues already escalated by our supervisors to the proper dept. won't get any feedback or action. So what we do is we report it to the higher level of management, our account manager for example. If the case is still unresolve & has not been taken cared of, we inform our site director about it wherein we can talk our grievances and set proper expections i.e. timeline when can this possible be resolved.

In this way, the staff has to fight for his rights in a proper manner in order to get fair & just compensation and benefits. He pushes his way to the highest level of support if the issue is unresolve within supervisory level or managerial level. In this way his concern will be addressed in a timely manner & at the same time the higher management can give feedback and require action plans from the said dept. so that this issue will be avoided in the future.

Forcing. and Compromising at the same time.
One time when I was in my first job as production supervisor in an cooking oil refining plant, our manager presented a wrong procedure in filtering the crude oil.
He said all the vacuum pumps should be working.
But both vacuum pumps are placed opposite in position for the process so they would cancel each other out.
Since the boos has his pride-he said, ako ang masusunod.
"Sumonod ka na lang.
Sino ba ang boss dito?"
"I'm sorry sir.
I know you are doing it wrong.
But it is up to you if you insist on doing it your way".

"So if you are going to turn both vacuum pumps on,
I would like to bet my whole month's salary that nothing will happen to the filtering process, since both vacuum pump will cancel each other out."

They proceeded with the boss' instructions.
And nothing happened to the process as I expected.
Napahiya na lang sila.
