The team and feedback

The team and feedback

One of the most important skills of management is giving feedback

Feedback is a very big role in teamwork. The thing is that positive feedback would seem like very supportive, but the thing is that if that feedback comes from a boss, or it is given in the wrong situation or wrong way, that thing might make the employee think that the feedback is somehow given patronage. If the person, who got the feedback is the fixed-period worker, and the workplace would not regularize the working relationship, that might feel really bad, even if the feedback of the work is very good.

The thing, what the boss sometimes forget is that people sometimes need also good feedback. And the problem is that constructive critique is sometimes only negative. In those cases, the boss would forget to tell things, what the henchman has made right, and this thing makes sometimes that feedback very embarrassing. In those cases, the henchman would hurt the feelings and even quit in that place, because that inmate would be boring to hear only the negative feedback, and that causes the quitting in the firm.

The most interesting part of this kind of things is how to tell worker, that the person is very important for the company. If that thing would be told the wrong way, that inmate can even blackmail the corporation, and ask a very high salary. And in those cases, the replacement for that worker could be very hard to get. But otherwise, if the importance of the worker would not tell to that person, would that worker change the workplace very easily, if the racer would offer better salary and more comfortable working environment.

Here we must realize that the workplace is also more than just the salary. If the worker would get in the team, where is better team spirit, and the people would offer that worker better change to benefit the strengths of the work that might feel more comfortable than stay in some room, where nobody ever visits or even notices the worker investment to the workplace and it works.

So the simple way to say the person, that inmate is important is give some attention to that person, and say thank you, or you are making a good job. Those things are a cheap and very nice way to show person, that the job was well done. There is no need to give Hawaii trips or season card for the Gym to tell that the person is making a fine job. And if we are thinking about the fixed-period worker, that person might respect, that somebody would regularize that position.

And if the feedback is bad and only things, what went wrong are handled in the workplace the attitude of the workers might turn that way, that they would make everything wrong anyway, and that means that they would not even try. When we are thinking about the gifts, what is given by the well-done work, we must understand that the well-done work must not be the thing, that every time when the routine work is well-done the workplace would give candies to the workers.

The wrong kind of feedback can destroy entire workplace

Here I mean that the things like being best team should notice, but if the inmate makes routine reports without errors, that would not mean the 5 weeks holiday on Hawaii. But if the reward system in the company is made the wrong way, that might mean that the team spirit would turn to zero, and the race would destroy the spirit in all workgroup.

The well-done work must somehow be noticed, but if the reward system is made in wrong way, that would cause the opposite phenomenon in the working group, what is decreasing the productivity and increasing the number of resignations. And the race about being the best of the workers can cause even sabotage against other workers. The race about being the top might cause the stab in the bag, and sometimes the tires of the salesmen have been emptied by the workmates. This kind of things can make the workplace some kind of hell on Earth.

The role of the player is important for a team playing

Here I'm writing about the statistics and problems of the roles in the team, and here I must say that during this writing I was really concerning that nobody sees any connections to real situations. This is the writing about the illusion, what statistics are making, and that means that the example of two players is purely fictional. But in my personal opinion that is a good example, what statistics make to the team.

When we are thinking about statistics, and how they influence the team spirit, we are facing problems, that there are many things that are making a good team, and the thing is that we need stars. But at the same time, we need people, who are building the game. And the last one is a very difficult person because that person is invisible in the statistics.

If you do this, you might make somebody very sad

The role in the team is given by the coach and would you rather be the invisible player, who would work in the silent role than the player, who has the opportunity to make points? I think that the role of the last one is more fascinating than the first one, and the coach would offer that thing to players, who have potential. And the sad thing is that there must be people, who have the role number one. The teamwork is important, but would you like to be played, who will ever make points?

Sometimes I have heard the story about the two players, what can play every team sports and the form of the story depends on the person, who tells you about this story of two players. This story is fictional, but it is used in the training of directors of companies. And it goes like this. There are two players, who can play ice hockey, football or every other team sports. Player number one is good game builder, that person shares the game tool, what is a ball or hockey, depending on the teller.

Invisible players are important 

That inmate works in the middle area and shares the tool for other people, and the result is that that person is the second server in every each point, what the team makes. Player number two makes two points but loses the game tool in many critical places, and that causes the many points to the opponents. So which one is better of those two players? The result is that this first player in invisible in statistics and that causes the illusion that the player number two is better because those points are visible in the statistics. The thing is that invisible players are also very important actors in the field of teamwork.

But how we could tell somebody, that this person would ever get the glory and cheers for the good work? Those things are also part of the motivation of people. And the thing is that those "silent players" motivation must be also good, and there is one big question and that is, "how we can recruit those silent hard working people to the team in the next year". Nobody wants to go home after the match and look at the mirror when other players are in the celebration ceremonies. This is a very big thing in sports and other team works.
