We are messed up!

Still it’s not too late to start organizing!

Forming a company is no child’s play. It is hard work. Things won’t work unless we make them work. Now we are facing a real challenge, the challenge of organizing the challenge of working together. We need to find ways that we can contribute. It doesn’t have to be always the hard way. There are various ways in which we can contribute, our company needs our help. We are really messed up. But still it’s not too late to start organizing.

Ever wonder why we are lagging behind? Why we can’t organize? Why we are confused? Sure there are many reasons. But one thing is lack of commitment and guidance. There are people who can work but they are waiting for some guidelines. They need someone to tell them what to do, otherwise they can’t work. It is true, not everyone can think of their own and start working when leadership positions are being filled. So why we are falling back? So why we are messing the whole thing?

One reason is we don’t have enough time. The second reason is we are not been told what to do because we don’t have a plan. It is very surprising when these days someone comes to the class and attempt drawing Gantt charts with white board and a maker. Isn’t it? We have all the software tools that can be used in order to do that. Why can’t we do it at our own peace and email it to others? Aren’t we the IT guys? Aren’t we the final year computing students?
We have been given everything in advance and all we have to do is work out that in advance before coming to the class, so that we can tell the other members what to be done. We have no time for voting, and we have no time to play democracy here. Unless we make things in advance we will not be able to catch with this company thing!

We have all got email adds, so we all can communicate using email. Everyone can be informed before coming to the class what is required of them, because we all know it in advance, we have been given the CDs, etc, etc.

Come on people! Let’s do it because we can really do it! We have the quality and the guts, all we need is little bit of planning in advance! We are the IT guys; we should be smarter than this! Don’t mess it up! Let’s work together as a team giving as much as we can, surely we have no time!

The Staff Engagement Paradox: Forcing the Illusion of Choice

Staff engagement, a concept praised for its ability to motivate employees and cultivate a positive work environment, can sometimes become a double-edged sword.  Initially, the intention behind organizing non-work-related activities, such as futsal competitions, was noble. These endeavours sought to provide employees with opportunities to connect and engage beyond the confines of their workspaces. The vision was to ignite motivation and foster unity. However, somewhere along the way, the true essence of these activities became distorted. The Penalties of Being Human Ironically, in their pursuit of encouraging staff engagement, companies implemented attendance marking systems and penalties for absence or tardiness. What was once voluntary and enjoyable participation has now been replaced by fear-driven coercion. Employees attend these events not out of genuine interest or enjoyment, but out of the dread of being shamed, penalized, or left out. The spirit of choice and voluntary engag...

How the "push it" culture creates real "down fall".

In the world of organizational culture, the prevalence of a "push it" mentality often serves as a glaring indicator of more profound issues. It signifies more than just a commitment to excellence; it frequently represents the single most significant indication of an isolated, blame-oriented, and ultimately toxic culture.  In environments where the "push it" mantra prevails, collaboration becomes an afterthought, and leaders, whether consciously or inadvertently, exacerbate this toxicity by embracing this phrase. In this article, I will dive into the perils of the "push it" culture, and I will try to shed some light. If you have been hearing the phrase "you have to push it" or "I expect you to push it harder", that means you are already working in a counterproductive environment.  The Toxicity of "Push It" The "push it" culture, seemingly rooted in the pursuit of results, often conceals deeper organizational maladies....
