Many times, people in their pursuit to see farther and farther, lose the ability to see clearly the things lined up right in front of them. Leaders seem to have been plagued by this trend.

And it doesnt boost anybody&#39;s moral!<br /><br />But I really believe we should not judge things from the glimpses we get. What if the employees were doing the same mistakes repeatedly?? What if they were being careless inspite of previous warnings??<br /><br />The leader also has the responsibility to carry the show clean afterall. The leader also has the bosses to reply to.<br /><br />I personally wont conclude anything by just a glimpse.Whats In A Namehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16691498990750958564noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269866154794734744.post-83355899236494315752009-07-08T12:15:57.867+05:302009-07-08T12:15:57.867+05:30Often we hear in people management context that when criticize leader first and when appreciate leader last...<br />Sounds great on paper but honestly tell me how many leaders have you seen follow or believe this at-least in India ?Dhimanhttp://dmanji.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269866154794734744.post-53622218903598049382009-07-08T09:47:58.279+05:302009-07-08T09:47:58.279+05:30Yes Adesh..I second u.. Was that store Landmark -South Ex branch?? Coz i&#39;ve seen the same scene last year when I happened to visit the store..<br />After the public spanking , the employees were visibly dejected.They didnt even felt like responding, but they had no choice.But they were less cheerful than before..<br />So even after the spanking it was ultimately the leader&#39;s loss..<br />And one more thing I admire abt these guys working in book store that even though they r not much educated but they always know which books one shud read ,which one r bestsellers..And one guy in a bookstore said he cannot read or write but still can give u the book which u want.. Amazing..Thats their dedication to work.. I think that customer care exec in ur other post shud take some tips 4m these guys :)preposterous girlhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10041612223213900437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-269866154794734744.post-80467242112611606232009-07-08T04:48:00.912+05:302009-07-08T04:48:00.912+05:30Completely agree. The leader&#39;s boss must come to the centre of the store and reprimand him in exactly the same way he did with his subordinates. Completely unacceptable behaviour, and that too in front of customers. There&#39;s no hope of customer service in that place, with such a person in charge.Rameshhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11782192840421019943noreply@blogger.com
