Digg it UP - Workplace Conflict Will Continue to Distract Management in 2007
Because a franchise system is a symbiotic relationship, franchisors spend as much time studying you as you researching about them. Yes you may bring in added income and aid the expansion plans of the company but if you end up not equal to the tasks of managing their company’s name, you may do them more harm than good.So to give you a general ide
Companies find these steps not only reduce the amount of time management must spend resolving unnecessary workplace conflict, it also results in higher degrees of quality and productivity. One company found an immediate 53% reduction in first-pass line rejects using the best practices identified by MBC. In another company, employee morale at an automotive assembly plant increased when employees started using the conflict resolution skills in their home lif
Dealing with Office Distractions, Part TwoUnnecessary WorkUnnecessary work is a silent productivity killer in the office environment. By unnecessary I don't mean that the work should never be done, but rather more important work should take precedent. These tasks are the small things, the "zero" time activities that can consu
For the past decade managers have consistently spent 18% of their time distracted by personnel issues. This is due to several contributing factors:
1. Managers do not understand how to create a harmonious workplace. Without understanding teambuilding concepts that allow employees to identify and resolve their own issues while they are still minor issues, managers are being continually drawn into staff arguments.
2. Managers do not understand transparent leadership. A lack of advanced communication skills leads to a comfort zone for management wherein the manager “hides” thoughts, feelings, and organizational goals. Employs fill in this lack of communication with their own ideas about the results of their department and the mood of the supervisor. Ultimately this will lead to gossip and rumor.
3. Managers fail to complement. With such a large portion of their time spent resolving difficult personnel issues, managers lose their confidence in providing positive feedback to employees. Studies show that management will often feel that complements will come back to haunt them later. Consequently managers are reluctant to give credit for outstanding personal achievement. Employees see this as an insult to their abilities. Eventually employees will stop contributing above average or minimal requirements because of this lack of appreciation.
Multicultural Business Council (MBC) has identified several industry best practices for reducing or eliminating constructive workplace conflict. These best practices include development of intensive conflict resolution skills for managers, slightly more generalized conflict resolution skills for front-line employees, and administering conflict resolution assessments to the entire workforce.

In a previous installment of medical billing goofs, we discussed what happens when you bill the wrong item to a carrier and how you can be charged with fraud, but what happens when you send a bill to the wrong carrier. What follows is a genuine story. It's kind of funny when you read it, but the truth is, it's far from funny. This is some serious stu

I sat watching a documentary on U.S. Navy SEAL Team Training on the local exercise channel. It showed young men, mostly in their early 20's, enduring grueling ocean swims in near-freezing water. It showed these same young men forced to swim underwater (holding their breaths) until a major percentage of them passed out and had to be rescued by their inst

So many new, college freshman find themselves in an awkward position…choosing a major. These barely 19 year-old kids are asked to make a decision about what they want to do for the rest of their lives. Naturally some squander away the time undecided while others plow through some technical field without any real understanding of what career awaits them.
Companies find these steps not only reduce the amount of time management must spend resolving unnecessary workplace conflict, it also results in higher degrees of quality and productivity. One company found an immediate 53% reduction in first-pass line rejects using the best practices identified by MBC. In another company, employee morale at an automotive assembly plant increased when employees started using the conflict resolution skills in their home life. Management at this unionized plant recognized common employees were less tense when they reported to work due to a reduction in personal problems. This also resulted in reduced time spent by management addressing conflicts born out of personal stress and anger by the workers.
