    Poor Performance - Your Options For Dealing With It Effectively
    Poor performance is an issue that faces any manager from time to time. You can deal with it in several ways:• Put up with it (not to be recommended)• Re-brief or train to allow performance to improve.• Re-assign the person to another task that they can do.• Terminate employment.These options are linked. For example, you should only fire an under-performer having first explored the options of training or re-assignment. If having taken up these options there is no improvement, then more drastic action may be necessary and justified.Do not put off taking action because you worry about the reaction of others. Provided action is justified it will almost certainly be approved.Most team members hate passengers and are conscious that they and their colleagues have to make up the difference.A Major Principle,:There is one maxim that, while it may initially seem

    The leader should have the mission and vision followed by the strategy to achieve the goal through the people. Gandhi understood that he couldn’t fight the British with force.

    So You Want to be a Hot Dog Man (or Woman)?
    Why be a Hot dog man (or woman)? If you're reading this, maybe you're looking for the answer. As someone once said: "Just when you think you have the answers, I change the questions!"For me, I wanted a low key business that involved lots of interaction with people. I like most people and enjoy chatting about the news of the day, the Red Sox, football, the weather, kids, wives, families etc. I was a commissioned salesperson for 20 years before I started this venture, so I know about people. I just wanted to deal with people straight up, without an angle. I have something they want and I give it to them-SIMPLE. I wanted no more of the stress and high pressure of commissioned sales.I also wanted to be involved with hot dogs because I like hot dogs and I feel the way I cook and serve my hot dogs is the best way; I have never found a hot dog anywhere that tastes quite like mine. The secret is in the way I cook them (not

    Something All My Own
    Owning my own business has taught me many things about myself. I’ve learned that I can make wise business decisions, I can manage the accounts and taxes for my company, and I can type with one hand while holding a sleeping 6 month old. All of these things have helped me develop into a much more confidant person. My business has also given me the freedom to test my limits and see what I can accomplish.Running a home-based business has become a large part of my identity. Not in a selfish, “See what I can do!” way, but in a positive sense. It has given me the confidence to know that I accomplish things that I never thought possible. Before I was a work-at-home mom, I wanted to be able to be at home with my children, but I also felt that I needed more. I needed something for me alone that would make me feel strong and confident. I also needed the opportunity to keep in touch with others to avoid the isolation that often a

    02.Mr.Haran, can you explain the other core values of his ideas?

    Creating a vision and defining values.

    Gandhiji had a vision of free and independent India and it is this vision that had brought him from South Africa to India.

    This vision got strengthened, when he was pushed out of the train by the English ticket examiner- that was considered as a defining moment.

    Besides the vision, he had certain core values like sathyagraha and ahimsa (Insistence on truth and non-violence) and these core values are used as vehicle for achieving the vision.

    As a change maker, he did not remain in one place and give instructions to others. He traveled across length and breadth of the country to understand the realities at the ground level. Once he decided to embark on his mission of freeing India, he traveled along with his early converts and had Bharat Dharshan. This is personally to communicate with the people. He could communicate his vision and values to freedom fighters, to the common man and later to British government itself. This helped in creating a shared vision and values.

    Infact, such communications are considered as an engine for change and the shared vision and values constitute the starting point for such change effort.

    03.Can you please explain the term “Walk the Talk”.

    Mahatma Gandhi did not speak about the values but lived with them, such that he was the role model for the same. He practiced what he preached. Once; the parents brought their younger child to Gandhi. They wanted Gandhi to advice the child against eating sweets. Gandhi told the parents to bring her to him next week. Sevendays later, Gandhi advised the child. The anxious parents enquired why it was that he had not advised the child earlier. Gandhi replied “I myself was eating sweets then”.

    Today’s management experts increasingly quote Gandhi’s words, as reflection of the deep underlying truths that Gandhi had touched in his own life.

    In fact, Gandhi was a Karma yogi beyond compare, engaging in action and consciously evolving by seeking at every turn, a convergence of word and deed.

    04.Mr. Haran, can you tell how come it could be possible for Mr. Gandhi to unite people with different ideologies.

    Here , Gandhi played the role of a collaborator. He played the role of getting people together at leadership level and also with masses. The Dandi March incident illustrates Gandhi’s expertise in mobilizing people to colla borate in critical projects, that is Collaboration of skills of getting together people at a grass root level.

    05.Mr.Haran, it is so nice of you that you had dealt with, in detail, Gandhi as a role model for corporate India. I shall be thankful if you can correlate how the strategies as adopted by him can be emulated by corporate India for their growth trajectory.

    If CEO’s are thinking of a transformation plan for their organization, they need to think about a mission and a vision for future and then come out with an appropriate strategy that will enable them to achieve their goals. And this has to be anchored in an unbeatable value system.

    Such a vision is to be communicated to the people down the line and then it becomes the shared vision. It is ultimately the people
