Three Sign of a Miserable Job.

 


Hello,guys today I am going to share with you a review of the book " THREE SIGN OF A MISERABLE JOB" written by PATRICK LENCIONI. 


Patrick Lencioni is an American writer of books on business management, particularly in relation to team management. 

In the book 'Three Sign of a Miserable Job', Sir, Patrick points out that with increasing Labour days, Job satisfaction rates goes on declining. The author offers a close look at three core factors behind workplace dissatisfaction:
1. Anonymity;
2. Irrelevance; and
3. Immeasurement 
This is among the best selling books with a rating of 4.

1. ANONYMITY 


The word  'Anonymity' means the condition of being anonymous. According to author, People cannot be fulfilled in their work if they are not known — at least by their own managers. 

By the above statement the author just wanted to say that an employee cannot get attached to his job or work unless his efforts are recognised and praised by the organisation especially by the manager in charge of their work or simply they should not be treated as an outsider or an robot.

To prove this fact he gives an example of a hard working employee, who is a girl! The author says that the girl is very hard working and does all her work at time. For few days she takes maternity leave as she was going to give birth to a baby. When she comes back to the office she is directly handovered the work by the manager. The manager does not ask about how is she? or something about her born child this makes the girl think that does the manager or the organisation are just considered about her work and not her, which makes her to think that the importance of a machine existence is more valuable than her. After that, she decides to leave her job in this organisation and tries for the other where she has some importance.

2. IRRELEVANCE 


By Irrelevance the author meant to say that each and every employee should know that does their job matters something to someone or not. Here, Someone is considered to manager. Due to lacking connection between employee' s work and the satisfaction of another person or group of people . i.e. the manager and his superior, the employees are unable to find out satisfaction about their job.

3. IMMEASURABLE 


By Immeasurability the author wants to say that Employees should be able to guage their progress and level of contribution for themselves, not simply based on the whims and opinions of their manager or other influential people. This may improve the quality of the employees leading to the growth of the organisation.

 These points may seem same to many of us, few managers take a deliberate approach for tackling these three critical issues day-in and day-out due to lack of focus and priorities.

 Lencioni says. “I know what you’re supposed to do to be a great parent” he says. “The question is do I do it every day?” The same goes for managers: “The challenge is to keep remembering to do it.”

This is for today. Hope you enjoyed reading my review. If you want to know more about the book please visit the following link:

Marketing Strategies Part- 2

 4. FREEBIE MARKETING  Freebie marketing is defined as any promotion, low price product, or giveaway that encourages the sale of another, higher value product. Companies are basically giving customers a taste of their products to attract them and retain their loyalty. Freebie marketing need not always be the distribution of free products.  5. UNDER COVER MARKETING  Undercover marketing strategies involve introducing a product to consumers in a way that does not seem like advertising. It is a strategy within the broader technique of stealth marketing, where agents pose as regular people and show products to others who are unaware of the marketing push. (also known as Stealth Marketing). For example, the Turi vodka campaign hired a highly-regarded nightclub owner to feature Turi at his private party, drawing an association between the product and the host’s popularity. Turi could have also been marketed by hiring an actor to visit bars, order Turi, and recommend it to ...

Truth Behind Suchita Dalal's Tweet

Image
  Hi, guys today I will be sharing my views in respect to the Tweet by Suchita Dalal recently. We all know about  Suchita Dalal that she  is an Indian business journalist and author. She is the one who exposed the Harshad Mehta Scam in 1992. If you read the tweet carefully you will find out that she had smartly written " one group" not revealing the name of the company on which she has doubt. She actually thinks that their is a possibility of a market crash but it is very hard to prove. According to the tweet of Suchita Dalal and the going on reports of SEBI and other financial analyst. It is evident that Suchita Dalal is actually having doubt in the shares of Adani group. The reason for this is the sudden rise in networth of Mr. Adani from $10 billion to $78.9 billion which is only $5.9 billion less from Mukesh Ambani's Networth in 2020. The suspicion came out when SEBI found that Albula Investment Fund; Cresta Fund and APMS Investment Fund; etc. that they own over Rs 43...
