A Falling Corporation - You As The New Manager
Turning a falling organization with a new organizational structure, including realigning individuals, tasks, processes and functions. How to manage the transitions, and new policies that should be implemented to facilitate the change effectively and immediately.
As new manager of a corporation or a division of a corporation, I would first call a meeting with all organizational members and employees. I would introduce myself and give credentials as to my abilities to fulfill this position and most importantly to gain the trust of the employees. In this meeting I would make it clear that the organization’s survival is legitimately threatened if change is not forthcoming (Robbins & Coulter 2005). I will then inform them of what my, as a new manager, vision is concerning what we can do together as a new organization to turn this organization around.
1. We are going to start with a cultural change, preparing employees for the change, and asking all employee’s input to help clarify cultural elements that may need change.
2. Initiate reorganization, such as employees working in groups to come up with new ideas for updating our product.
3. Change processes and evaluation reward systems to support the new values.
4. Increasing the role of all employees in helping to turn our organization around.
Also, expectations of what is to be done will be communicated to all employees, such as; divide work to avoid duplication, conflict, misuse of resources, and wasted effort.
Communication within our organization, including employees is a benefit to our success. Therefore we will be utilizing information technology so that our organization can begin to be more effective and efficient, and also for the employees to have more complete information to make faster decisions, and more opportunities to collaborate and share information (AIU Online Virtual Campus n.d.)
The organization will utilize work diversity by forming teams. This will free up management to do more strategic thinking and permit more flexible decision making. This will also increase performance, increased acceptance of a solution, and greater legitimacy by allowing employees to be involved with the decision making of the new product (AIU Online Virtual Campus n.d.)
All teams will be working on designated areas of the organizations ultimate functions, goals, and new ideas. All ideas will be embraced with accomplishment and endeavor for the particular situation by the organization as a whole.
As a Manager, to transition from the old organization, I would actively be supportive and encourage day-to-day improvements and changes by communicating with all employees, I would ensure diverse teams, encourage mavericks, integrate technology to implement changes, build and deepen trust. When the organization’s culture is trusting and managers have credibility and integrity, people are more likely to support changes. (Robbins & Coulter 2005 p.326)
New policies that I would like to see adhered to in our new organization to be implemented immediately would be:
1. Show uncompromising honesty and integrity in all of your activities regarding ABC organization.
2. Avoid all conflicts of interest between work and personal life.
3. Respect the dignity and worth of all individuals.
4. Encourage individual initiative and innovation in an atmosphere of flexibility, cooperation and trust.
5. Promote a culture where promise keeping, fairness, respect and personal accountability are valued, encouraged and recognized.
6. Create a safe workplace.
7. Protect the environment (3M, n.d) |
