Tricky Workplace Situation Handled
- I would apologize for the room being dirty and offer late check or a hotel credit to defuse the situation. Then I would send room service to clean the room immediately.
- One of the Programs I manage is the construction of Community Center. Prior to the construction I would engage all stakeholders to ensure that everyone feels part of the situation, regardless of social status in the community. We give everyone a chance to contribute their views with shows equality and empathy.
- We can collaborate with the common understanding of achieving a common goal.
- Initially I would not be pleased about having to collaborate, but because of my professionalism I would make things work and get the desired outcome.
- As the Head of the Project Management Unit, a Senior Manager that reports to me did not like the fact that I was 25 years younger than him and didn't want take order from me. The way manner in which I addressed him with respect and kept involving him in my decisions, asking him for his opinion allowed him to gain respect for me, thus making him an important team player.
- Find your switch off ritual, for me it is when I reach home to my daughter.
- My way of switching off, I have a 2 hour commute back home, so I would listen to podcasts on things that I like for example Fantasy Football, this allows me to cleanse and clear my mind.
- Incentives are a very effective way to boost staff's morale and encourage them to meet deadlines and work beyond the call of duty.
- My company has a Program called the Employee Assistance Program to deal with stress and mental health. The situation can be improved by the Executives meeting with staff periodically to show appreciation.
- Try to find your happy place. My happy place is when I reach home to my 4 year old daughter, no matter how stressful my work day was, I always look forward to coming home to her and I understand the importance of managing my work stress so that she can have a better future.
