Notas del editor
I have started this presentation as an attempt to create an addition to my CV. The ordinary CV simply does state facts from your work experience, but it does not say how would you act in this or another practical situation, what are your aims at work besides having good salary and interesting work and what could you do besides the experience, which you already have. So the presentation “Who is Mr. Issaenko?” was born. Very soon with the feedback of some of my reviewers I understood that I need not only to express certain new ways as I and my work values as I see them but also bring more concrete content. So this presentation became not more about my self, but about visions and instruments I have developed in my work. Those visions and instruments I have developed gave also a vision to structure them into the system. In this presentation I am going to take you today on a journey through elements of those systems. I have heard about such concepts as new (net) working during the Introduction Webinar of Carrier Challenge 2011 . Those concepts came literally “to the heart” of my own vision of entrepreneurship and engaging people to achieve goals. After that Webinar I felt that I have even more motivation to complete my presentation of “We Can Do It” and share it through FD Carrier Challenge 2011 competition site. It helps me to make step closer to the realization one of my greatest personal opportunities- winning the major prize MBA Executive Education in the prestigious and business university of Nyrode with great traditions of business education. I believe that when following this education and after completing that I can contribute even more in creating business opportunities within my entire network.
The knowledge of entrepreneurship and new net(working) is already within you. We will discover it together by supporting you in projecting your current experience onto the new maps of structuring and helping you to derive maximal value from your current experience.
In the journey, which is ahead of us, there are 5 themes to discover.
In the Leading theme we will look together on the aspects of coordinating your professional team and leading the whole team united in achieving your business goals. In the Entrepreneurship part you and I will look how you can create the entrepreneurship environment within your organization or team to help members act as an entrepreneurs, seeing and motivated to help the entire organization in achieving its business goals. New Net(working) goes about how you use your existing networking to help you in pursuing business opportunities. Business ideas, which are later transferred to the opportunities, shall be born somehow. You need an inspiration and information to create this. Where you can get this inspiration from? That is the content of the fourth part of this presentation. The last fourth part is not about doing it, it is about You , Mr/Mrs X , Your Success and how do you achieve this.
Taking a lead is a very important step. You can not just be given a leadership by organization structure. You need to take this lead and carry this. How do you do this?
Leading can be done in two forms Coaching and Directing, but it is very important to combine those forms in the correct proportions as well as knowing in advance, which level of your personal involvement leadership can be required from you under different circumstances.
Level of involvement is defined by proportions of coaching and directive parts. Your level of involvement is not constant as well as leadership style. It needs to be adapted to be at right place at the right time .
You may need to change the style of your leadership depending on circumstances and one fact, that people need to understand not only what you want from them but also understand why do you want it from them and be sufficiently motivated in trying to achieve the end result. Very many Offshore or Outsourcing IT projects are not as successful as they could be, if the leadership style and relations between both onshore and offshore sides were formed in the right way from the beginning. You may have less or more personal involvement in the begin, but if you begin working with new people or new supplier, the Direction part of your leadership shall be strong. People may not need to understand why you want to do certain things in the certain way, but they shall know what you want from them, in which form and be committed to that. Further, when need in the direction of team reduces and team is able to follow certain procedures, you may spend more time on explaining the essence of their tasks from you and listen if they have questions or suggestions how to improve this locally. It is necessary, during improvement phase to keep you level of direction sufficient enough to make sure that team does not focus on improvement only, but keep their foots on the land and remain aware from demands from you. You do Coaching of your team or supplier as you lead them. When your relations with the team or supplier are mature enough, you can reduce directing part, allowing people to choose locally most efficient ways to achieve goals, which you provide by going to Supporting type of leading. Eventually, if business goals are not changed frequently or change insignificantly, you may go to Delegating type of leading. Relations in this part need regular monitoring and control to gain indication when your team or supplier needs increase of Support or Direction . Very many projects in IT Outsourcing which had a good start, later suffer fails, because the level of involvement decreased, when team under strong Direction shown good results. You can NOT go directly from Direction type of relationships to Coaching unless you intend to formalize every aspects of your professional relationships and know for sure that formal procedures, which you set, are understood in the same way by you and your team/supplier. When you are in Delegating type of the relationships, you need to be absolutely sure in the Team Integrity on your own or/and supplier side .
What does team integrity in your case mean and why it is important? The answer is very simple. You can NOT achieve any productive result if some members of your team are moving in different directions and have goals, different that goals of the team.
That is why team integrity means that goals and ambitions of everyone in the team shall be correlated with goals of the entire team. Also it is important for you as a leader to have a strong vision of what are you trying to achieve, besides normal caring day to day tasks. Having this vision allows you to clarify required environment to implement this vision. Based on that vision, you can assign everyone a place in this environment, his/her own important job . The kind of this job shall allow a person to get a deserved recognition. You can achieve giving recognitions by structuring motivation and enthusiasm of your team. So that you can put their actions in the right way to achieve the maximal positive effect in their contributing to the work of the entire team.
Here you may see, how feeling of personal recognition and reword leads to the feeling of trust between you and the member of your team. Always try to know everyone of your team in person: what drives him/her , what his/her personal and professional ambitions and what is the best reward does he/she truly want from her work ? Having a feeling of trust helps you so much, when the time of crisis comes and you need to perform with your team above normal or there is no time for discussion and you just want that your team relies on you. And never, never address people as “hey you” or refer to them as “those people”.
Feeling of doing the own important piece of the common job unities people. They work in cooperation each with other. However, members of your team are like stars. Some brighter, others are dimmer. And like in sport there is a plenty space for friendly completions between those stars within your daily routine. Competitions, which make dimmer stars brighter and may turn bright stars to supernovas.
As it was mentioned before, people need to be reworded or better to say to have feeling of being personally reworded. The post necessary aspect of that feeling is a feeling of doing “important job”. Never say to your people “Well, someone needs to carry those tasks” or “It shall be done anyway, so please do that instead of discussion”. Instead you need to give person a picture of importance those tasks for the team related success. If you have tasks, which you personally consider to be waist of the time, how could you convince anyone about importance of their work on those tasks? Instead, you shall be involved with your management in discussing those tasks and if they are necessary. But let us say, you have a total picture of vision for the team work and there are no “waist time” tasks in this vision, so every task has its own unique importance. Besides that, everyone in your team is assigned to the tasks, understand their importance and motivated to carry them on. How would you choose how exactly everyone shall be reworded for his/her work and how. The best way to do that is to allow someone becomes better that he is. You may encourage competition between your team members on how gains maximal measurable result of the certain kind from similar type of task. For maximal efficiency you need to drive them on a regular basis, so everyone eventually gets a chance to win and tries to win. We all have memories. There are memories, which are pleasing us as we recall them. It is very important to recall positive emotions, when we have clashes and fallbacks in our daily work and life. Memories in our mind have certain doors which lead us to recall those memories. Having a gift at which you often look is one of those doors. When person is reworded and feels that you have the professional trust in him or her, you may use that to make person accept the certain positive critics which would help him/her to improve own contribution to the work of entire team/organization. You may help him or her with activities to achieve that and set up the plan or personal improvement process aimed to achieve desired personal result. If you agree with team member which desired personal result for the nearest future could be, then he/she knows what to work for and also less motivated to change his job.
Dealing if the team member makes it hard for you is not easy. But it is very important for you to understand cause in this case. You wil also need a flexible system.
