Relations between managers and subordinates at NGIEU

The university has developed and approved the "NGIEU Code of Ethics".

The institution clearly understands that success depends entirely on the people working in it.

Employees are a valuable asset, largely thanks to which the efficiency and success of NGIEU is growing. It is important to remember that each employee is the face of the institution, his work and behavior supports his reputation and prestige.

Introduction

I chose this topic because when I graduate from the academy, I will inevitably have to enter into a system of interpersonal relations between the leader and myself, that is, the subordinate. Therefore, already in the process of studying, it is useful to get acquainted with the specifics of the relationship between the manager and the managed, understand how to properly treat your boss, and possibly even with subordinates, how to study your leader, understand what kind of person he is and what requirements he puts forward to subordinates .

Management is created by the peculiarities of the national culture. How many nations - so many styles and types of government. The Russian management style is very different from the American and even more from the Japanese. Each of the styles stands out among the others with a bright cultural identity. The more strongly management is connected with the traditions and customs of its people, the more cost-effective it is. This conclusion is confirmed by the USA and Japan.

At present, in the conditions of the development of market relations, the growth of competition, any enterprise faces the task of increasing the efficiency of its activities. Their successful solution largely depends on the level of personnel management. In this regard, there is a need to improve management, bringing it into line with the conditions and objectives of the activity.

The leader must understand that the better relations he has with subordinates, the more efficient production will be, and the main characteristic of the relationship between the leader and the subordinate is their direct communication. Therefore ethics business communication in management is fundamental. This is what I will try to reveal in my work.

The concept of managerial communication and the main approaches to its consideration

Before proceeding to consider the content and features of communication between a leader and a subordinate, it is necessary to introduce the concept of managerial communication, since the term "business communication" is too broad for this situation. After all, it also covers communication, for example, between a doctor and a patient, a teacher and a student. In communication between the leader and the subordinate, the role character is pronounced, initiatives and duties, responsibilities are unevenly distributed, which determine the dependence of one participant in communication from another.

Thus, managerial communication is business communication between the subject and the object of management in social organizations, carried out by symbolic means, due to the needs of managing their activities.

The subject of analysis in this work will be mainly interpersonal communication, that is, communication between the boss and the subordinate.

Communication between a leader and a subordinate is inextricably linked with managerial activity in general. The idea of ​​"interlaced communication" in management allows us to consider in detail the question of what exactly in the activities of the leader determines communication. In spruce, it can be stated that through communication, management is organized and implemented. Due to its inherent function of influence, communication allows you to coordinate the actions of its various participants.

Structure of managerial communication..

As a rule, three sides are distinguished in communication: communication, understood in the narrow sense of the word as the exchange of information between the subject and the object of management; interaction - their interaction, which implies a certain form of organization of joint activities; interpersonal perception is the process of mutual knowledge of each other by the object and subject of management as the basis for their mutual understanding.

COMMUNICATIVE SIDE.

In the process of communication, the subject and the object of control exchange various kinds of information. No less important is the exchange of moods, interests, feelings carried out in the course of communication. It appears as a communicative process. The complex of signs used in this case (speech, gestures, and so on) is aimed at ensuring the implementation of the decision made.

The specificity of communication processes is manifested in the following features:

q In the nature of the process feedback;

q Presence of communication barriers;

q The presence of the phenomenon of communicative influence;

q Existence of different levels of information transfer.

From the point of view of management efficiency, it is very important for the manager to understand these features and take them into account in daily activities. In addition, it is very important to correctly understand the purpose and appropriateness of the following sign systems:

q Verbal means of communication - speech, para- and extralinguistic systems (intonation, non-speech inclusions in speech - pauses, and so on)

q Non-verbal, or expressive, means of communication - an optical-kinetic system of signs (gestures, facial expressions, pantomimics), a system for organizing space and time of communication, a system of "eye contact".

Each individually sign system is a kind of leverage in establishing the correct (correct), depending on the situation, contact with subordinates, the ability to influence his psyche and his internal state without direct intervention. It is impossible, for example, to create a benevolent and trusting atmosphere in a conversation if one of its participants appearance constantly emphasizes its superiority. As a result, one of the basic principles of conducting a conversation is violated - creating an atmosphere of mutual trust. The intellectual potential of the subordinate in such communication will most likely not be used.

INTERACTIVE SIDE

As a result of the interaction between the object and the subject of control, the decision is made by the latter, that is, the superior. And the task of interaction is complicated by the fact that the control object must perceive it at the level of motivation for action. The communication strategies chosen by the leader (in most cases unconsciously) determine the style of communication and management. . The literature describes five main types of managers, depending on the orientation of the leader to the interests of the business or to concern for relationships with people:

  1. “liberal” (maximum attention to people, minimum attention to work);
  2. "organizer" (high orientation to efficient work combined with trust and respect for people);
  3. "manipulator" (moderate attention to work, little attention to people);
  4. "pessimist" (insignificant attention to production and people);

5. "dictator" (maximum attention to work, little attention to people).

PERCEPTIVE SIDE

From the point of view of management efficiency, the process of perception of the object and the subject of management by each other are not equivalent. Each leader understands how important it is to form the necessary image of a subordinate. In management, there is even such a thing as self-presentation of the leader. At the same time, the peculiarity of this particular side of business communication in management is often not taken into account.

Interpersonal perception is the process of mutual knowledge of each other by the subjects of communication as the basis for their mutual understanding. This side of managerial communication includes certain mechanisms of mutual understanding and forecasting of the partner's behavior. An important role is played by communication barriers, mechanisms of psychological protection of the individual.

Functions of managerial communication

The subject of studying the communication of a manager with a subordinate is multilateral and ambiguous. In the process of interaction, the subject and object of management perform hundreds of different functions, which in turn are divided into integral (covering the activities of the organization as a whole) and local (implementing directly specific communication).

For such an aspect of consideration as the ethics of business communication in management, the following functions are most important:

  1. The function of socialization. Involving in joint activities and communication, young employees not only master communication skills, but also learn to quickly navigate the interlocutor, situations of communication and interaction, listen and speak, which is also very important both in terms of interpersonal adaptation and for direct professional activities. The acquired ability to act in the interests of the team, a friendly, interested and tolerant attitude towards other employees is of great importance.
  2. contact function. The purpose of this function is to establish contact as a state of mutual readiness of the leader and subordinate to receive and transmit messages and maintain the relationship in the form of mutual orientation.
  3. Coordination function, the purpose of which is mutual orientation and coordination of the actions of various performers in organizing their joint activities.
  4. The function of understanding is not only an adequate perception and understanding of the meaning of the message, but also an understanding of each other by partners (their intentions, attitudes, experiences, states, and so on).
  5. Amotive function, the purpose of which is to excite the necessary emotional experiences in the partner (“exchange of emotions”), as well as to change their own experiences and states with their help.

Orientation in these functions and skillful use of them helps to identify the causes of difficulties that arise in the implementation of a specific task of managerial communication. Development theoretical foundations managerial communication aims to increase its effectiveness. Therefore, the question of what managerial communication we will consider effective is not an idle one. Sometimes the effectiveness of managerial communication is considered from the point of view of achieving goals by the participants in communication. But in managerial communication there can be two or more partners, and each of them can have its own goal, different from the goal of the interlocutor, and sometimes the opposite. For example, a leader may aim to convince a subordinate of the need to perform some work, and subordinates, in turn, may seek to refuse this assignment. The goals are opposite and, in the absence of a compromise solution, the solution for one of the participants will be "ineffective".

The effectiveness of managerial communication cannot be considered in isolation from management activities generally. Communication is a condition and element of managerial activity, therefore such managerial communication should be considered effective, which ensures the achievement of the goals of managerial activity through the prompt transfer of the necessary information, optimal psychological impact, mutual understanding between the object and subject of management and their optimal interaction.

Genres of communication between a leader and subordinates

The leader in the process of his activity goes through several stages of behavior: from the most rigid, categorical, where it is necessary to show rigidity and unwillingness to compromise, to the softest, most loyal, where the leader becomes an equal interlocutor without signs of dominance. But one should distinguish between situations where and how one should behave. The following table lists the types of communication identified by functional purpose, or genres of communication, as they are sometimes called.

Functional types of managerial communication.

For example, an order may be brought in the form of a request or demand. At the same time, as practice shows, all the variety of tasks of managerial communication can be solved using the listed functional types of communication, the specificity and psychological basis of which must be developed at the theoretical and practical levels.

Leader's speech culture as a psychological factor of management.

The culture of speech is an integrative characteristic that includes three groups of parameters:

  1. message content;
  2. the form of statements;
  3. speech etiquette.

!) Assessing the impact of speech on the content side, the following characteristics are usually distinguished: saturation of speech with information, consistency, accuracy, comprehensibility to its interlocutor, expediency (relevance).

The informativeness of speech depends primarily on the novelty and importance or value for the listener of the reported facts. It increases significantly depending on the speaker's ability to analyze and generalize, which are especially important, since they are always present in the communication of the leader and subordinate. The informativeness of speech essentially depends on the completeness of the disclosure of the main idea, its illustration with the necessary factual data, practical examples. At the same time, it should be remembered that information content decreases if there is extra information in the speech that is not related to the subject of discussion.

While preparing for any type of managerial communication, for example, for a conversation, you need to work out the logic of transferring information, discussing each specific issue. The basis of the logic of speech is the logic of thinking. Therefore, the leader must constantly develop the ability to think clearly. It is also advisable to teach the basic provisions and laws of logic. Logic of speech has a positive effect on the listener's ability to perceive information.

In no case should the leader use words, concepts and terms whose meaning he does not know exactly. They will sound unnatural, and most likely inappropriate, and the speech will lose its exact meaning and this will lead to an inaccurate understanding of it by subordinates. To avoid this, you need to know the following conditions for creating accurate and correct speech:

q knowledge of the subject of speech;

q knowledge of the language;

q possession of speech skills.

Along with these concepts, there is such a characteristic as understandability. It involves, on the one hand, taking into account the intellectual potential of the interlocutor, his prior knowledge of the topic under discussion, and, on the other hand, “simplifying” the material to this level.

2) The second group of parameters associated with the form of the utterance includes the following characteristics: correctness and purity, richness (variety of symbolic means), expressiveness and figurativeness.

Errors in words and expressions, even the smallest ones, lead to an instant focus on them of the interlocutor's attention, and, as a result, the loss of the thread of the conversation. This can have a detrimental effect on the correct understanding by the subordinate of what is subsequently required of him. Accurate, vivid, figurative expressions, on the contrary, make the interested interlocutor delve deeper into the essence of the conversation, additionally, independently, comprehend the aspect that was highlighted in the speech. Therefore, one must be careful here: never highlight secondary information with an original statement. In this case, the subordinate may misunderstand the main goal.

3) an obligatory element of a high culture of speech is speech etiquette. A greeting, an apology, a request, an offer, an expression of joy, admiration, gratitude and much more will be correctly perceived by the interlocutor, subject to the observance of speech etiquette, which can be defined as a set of rules, norms, verbal formulas and rituals that have historically developed in a certain environment. The speech behavior of a person should show his deep, sincere respect for other people. Speech etiquette makes a person's communication with others pleasant, desirable. It helps to establish contact between people, maintain a friendly atmosphere of communication, orients us to such communication rules that contribute to the most effective and meaningful communication. It is expedient for a leader to study and master the norms of etiquette, but in any case, one must remember that the basic requirements of etiquette are politeness, attentiveness, and restraint. Too loud speech, excessive gestures are unacceptable. It is unethical during a conversation to push a person, pull on clothes, pat on the shoulder, whisper in the ear, remind about physical disabilities and the like.

The set of communication circumstances that affect the choice of language means is called a speech situation. To determine it, you need to answer at least three questions: with whom to talk? (one person or several), where? (in formal or informal settings), for what purpose? (informing, influence, management). Depending on the speech situation, the following styles of speech are used: colloquial, scientific, official business, journalistic, artistic. All styles have oral and written forms. The condition for successful managerial communication is mainly colloquial and official business styles. At the same time, the skills of using oral forms of scientific, journalistic and artistic styles significantly increase the communicative qualities of a leader.

Non-verbal means of managerial communication.

The main role in the "expressive repertoire" is played by facial expressions. Due to the high social significance facial expression, which performs the function of establishing contact between people, the face is constantly in the field of view of the partner.

AT certain types managerial communication facial expression is of particular importance. For example, a conversation involves a special spatial organization that allows the interlocutors to notice even minor movements of the facial muscles. In a managerial conversation, the face of the leader is a kind of " calling card»+. A friendly facial expression contributes to the establishment of a trusting working atmosphere. A smile is an indispensable means of establishing contact between interlocutors. At the same time, the desire to smile constantly or as much as possible will be erroneous. There may be times when a smile is inappropriate. It is necessary to control the facial expression so that it corresponds to the semantic side of the information presented or perceived in which the conversation takes place.

To assess the atmosphere of business communication, it is also important to take into account the frequency of exchange of glances, the duration of the delay in looking at the partner, that is, the dynamic characteristics of the gaze or “eye contact”. The movement of the eyes, the orientation of the gaze are associated by many people with the moral and ethical characteristics of a person. The prohibition and permission to "eye contact" are a kind of mechanisms for regulating relations between people. Usually the communication of important information by the communicator, as well as the desire of one of the partners to receive Additional information accompanied by active visual perception. The desire to avoid “eye contact” or looking away from the interlocutor indicate the emergence of communication barriers. A fixed fixed gaze indicates a violation of the feedback. The discrepancy between the characteristics of the look and other communicative means (for example, the combination of an unfriendly look with a verbal statement about the joy of communicating with a partner) shows the insincerity of the interlocutor.

Gestures are also no less important: some help the speaker to more fully display the object of the conversation, others show the interlocutors about each other's mood, internal fluctuations, the next group includes handshakes, patting, stroking, touching clothes and other gestures that include physical contact interlocutors. They are widespread in non-business, intimate communication, where the status-role position of partners is less pronounced, and indicate the closeness of those communicating. For managerial communication, touch gestures are less typical. Here, their choice is greatly influenced by official position, authority, age, gender of those communicating. For example, V. A. Labunskaya emphasizes that the “pat on the shoulder” gesture is possible only if the partners are socially equal. The inappropriate use of this and other gestures - touches in managerial communication can cause a negative reaction of the interlocutor.

Pose - as one of the important non-verbal means of communication, is most subject to regulation, since there are certain canons in business communication. When a person (leader) speaks to a large number of people (subordinates), then undoubtedly he is seized with a kind of embarrassment. At the initial stage, his movements are unnatural, and he himself knows and feels this, even more embarrassed. In this case, training in front of a mirror will be very useful for practicing universal poses.

Sitting in the presence of the interlocutor, lounging on a chair and putting his feet on the table, may be acceptable in the company of close friends during the holidays. But the same posture in business communication will be regarded by us as a manifestation of extreme vulgarity.

In managerial communication, in particular in a conversation, an important practical value has an assessment of the openness of the partner’s posture, because this characteristic, to a greater extent than the words of the interlocutor, indicates the perception of information, agreement or disagreement with the message, a friendly or, conversely, hostile attitude. On the basis of this feature, open poses and closed (protection poses) are distinguished. The openness of the posture, as a rule, is evidenced by open arms, the body of the body tilted towards the partner, moving to the edge of the chair closer to the partner, and an unbuttoned jacket. Experience shows that agreements are reached more often between people in unbuttoned jackets than between those who remain buttoned up. The one who changed his mind in a favorable direction, unclenched his hands and automatically unbuttoned his jacket. Keep it in this position - and it will most likely be easier for you to achieve your goal. Elements of openness in the pose of a communication partner indicate the presence of an atmosphere of trust, which is the main principle of a managerial conversation.

Arms crossed on the chest, clenched hands, slightly raised head speak of a closed posture. Turning the head away from the interlocutor, looking away to the side can also be attributed to the same group. Usually they talk about doubt, disagreement, that the partner does not like the course of the conversation. A posture that suggests a lack of eye contact usually indicates a formality of communication. Turning the body and legs facing the exit (if the interlocutors are standing) shows that the partner has already mentally finished the conversation and is waiting for a convenient excuse to leave. It is obvious that much of what was said to him at the same time will not be perceived, so the continuation of the conversation in such a situation needs to be additionally motivated. A signal about the desire to continue the conversation will be a change in posture.

Non-verbal means of communication usually include the spatial organization of communication, an important component of which is the distance between the interlocutors. Many can probably recall the feeling of discomfort when a communication partner, figuratively speaking, "presses" or "hangs" over you, reducing the optimal distance. On the other hand, it is difficult to imagine an intimate conversation, the participants of which are removed at a distance of more than four meters. There are also certain patterns here. People who are in very close relationships usually communicate at a distance of up to 50 cm, ("intimate communication distance"). They communicate with work colleagues, acquaintances, not very long friends at a distance of 0.5 to 1.5 m (“personal distance”). In boss-subordinate communication, participants are usually separated by 1.5-4 meters from each other, (“official distance”). Public communication with an audience or big group people is carried out at a distance of more than 4 meters, (“open distance”). Such a selection of varieties of distances is conditional, since the distance can vary significantly depending on individual characteristics interlocutors and socio-cultural environment.

To achieve harmony in the use of expressive means of communication, it is necessary to take into account that they are manifested and perceived in a complex way. Without exception, all means are important in the course of a conversation, so at least one type of means should not be overlooked. Contradictions in the use of various means in communication leads to disorganization of the interlocutor's attention, and subsequently there is distrust of the leader and what he says.

Thus, it is possible to make a kind of expressive portrait of the participants in a managerial conversation (primarily the leader), including the preferred expressive means:

q benevolent, attentive facial expression;

q periodic and as long as possible eye contact;

q restrained, non-intense gestures;

q open posture, the body is tilted towards the interlocutor;

Organization of the communication system in the management process.

If the top administration of the organization is focused on constant change, and the absence of changes reveals the stagnation of the enterprise, then it needs to develop such an organization of the “communicative space” so that stability and dynamism, manageability and spontaneity, new and old experience can organically combine. The “communicative space” of the leader turns out to be such an environment in which this dual unity is formulated. On the one hand, the organizational behavior of employees can be focused on search, initiative, innovation (design and technical departments, marketing services, sales departments), on the other hand, to contain innovations ( financial service, especially accounting, supply department).

Depending on the nature of the activity, even the entire enterprise (firm), as a whole, different approaches to management are carried out. The atmosphere prevailing in the organization largely determines the nature of communication both between employees and with management. Allocate a team of the so-called " warship and the football team. If we visualize these two types of organization of production, then it will not be difficult to draw associations into the sphere of managerial activity. The first is the “hard” organization of management, and the second is the “soft” one. To determine which communication system "reigns" in your enterprise, you need to analyze its activities using the following table.

Organizational structure of communications.

"Rigid" organization of communications

"Soft" organization of communications

- "Pyramidal" management structure

Each has a strictly defined scope of work

The rights, duties and responsibilities for each employee are accurately described

External coordination of behavior

Predetermined Behaviors

Linear thinking as preferred

Maneuvering narrowness of interaction

Innovative closeness of communication networks

Strict information targeting to certain communication points

Feelings of disengagement among employees

Philosophy of the organization: "People for business".

- "Flat" management structure

Each correlating his work with the front of common work

Rights, duties and responsibilities are modified depending on situations

Self-coordination of behavior in relation to the behavior of others

Multiple Behaviors

Polymeric nature of thinking as preferred

Maneuverable breadth of interaction

Innovative openness of communication networks

Blurred information targeting, information is used by all employees

Feeling of solidarity as necessary "team spirit"

Philosophy of the organization: "Business for the person".

After the direction of your future work is determined (but only from the position of interpersonal communication!), it is necessary to develop tactics of behavior with subordinates, or vice versa, with the leader. As can be seen from the table, these systems are diametrically opposed, and therefore the behavior must correspond.

For example, the situation: you go to an appointment with the boss. How would you state your request: orally or in writing?

Decision: Take a look at the leader!

If you find yourself in the position of a subordinate, then you must try to make a good impression on the leader with your work, therefore, you must be able to present it correctly. It turns out that this largely depends on the nature of the leader himself. If the leader is a joker and a merry fellow, then he is an extrovert. That is, he is a person who loves the process of communication. He prefers to receive information not from papers, but from people. Therefore, it is better for him to state his information orally.

A reticent person is an introvert. He prefers papers to live communication. Therefore, when visiting him, it makes sense to submit a written statement of your request.

If you don't know anything about the manager, will you contact him verbally or in writing? In this case, it is best to prepare both versions of the presentation in advance, and then ask the leader himself how it is more convenient for him to obtain the necessary information, and he himself will subconsciously choose the best.

The most important reason for the inadequacy of the perception of information is the presence of communication barriers, due to both the characteristics of the personality of the communicator and the recipient (listener), and the situation of communication. In the most general sense, a communication barrier is a psychological obstacle to the adequacy of information transfer between communication partners. In the event of a barrier, the information is distorted or loses its original meaning, and in some cases it does not reach the recipient at all. Below are the most common occurrences of barriers.

It is very important to work out the model of communicative behavior of the subordinates in relation to the superiors, but especially when the appeal to them is based on the introduction of initiative proposals or when these initiatives capture the sphere organizational management the behavior of workers. It is here that many mistakes can be made in the very appeals of the following to the superior. These mistakes can be summarized in a table that clearly shows how the psychological destruction of the foundations of communicative behavior occurs, why it happens and how these mistakes can be overcome, and also offers strict recommendations developed both in American and domestic practice.

Overcoming psychological barriers in communicative behavior.

Mistakes made by a subordinate employee

Possible psychological barriers in a superior partner

Situational requirements for behavior

Important behavioral acts in this situation

Providing a written report to the manager about innovations without a preliminary oral conversation with him on this issue

Inform your supervisor of the results of the meeting with senior management.

Often distracts his boss from work, insisting that he clarify something to him again or correct

Be honest with the leader, hoping for his help in overcoming them

Strengthen his confidence that he helps subordinates overcome shortcomings.

Thus, communication barriers have a decisive impact on the process of perception of information in the course of managerial communication. Knowledge and timely elimination of their causes will increase the efficiency of management by the manager and prevent loss of working time. At the same time, theoretical knowledge in this area requires serious practical development. In the daily practice of managerial communication, the leader needs to develop the ability to anticipate and eliminate obstacles in understanding the interlocutor's message.

Conclusion

Studies show that a manager spends up to 80% of his working time on managerial communication. Consequently, only the leader who knows how to organize effective business communication can work fruitfully. The solution of this problem is impossible without knowledge of the psychological foundations of communication and the ethics of business communication.

The main condition for the effectiveness of business communication is the manager's awareness that the possibility of realizing the goals of the enterprise, firm, organization increases if communication is properly organized, while creating an atmosphere of mutual understanding, trust and cooperation. Taking into account the features of feedback, the use of psychological knowledge to overcome communication barriers, as well as right choice type of communicative influence and some advice on the ethics of communication will significantly reduce the time spent by both the leader and the subordinate.

Throughout life, a person intuitively masters the norms and rules of communication. But for a leader, this is clearly not enough. Therefore, it is necessary to systematically train managers in those aspects of business communication that have a more or less reliable scientific basis. An urgent task is the scientific development of those communication issues that are due to the specifics of managerial activity.

John D. Rockefeller, having reached the pinnacle of success, once said: “The ability to communicate with people is as much a commodity bought for money as sugar or coffee. And I am ready to pay more for this skill than for any other product in the world.”

On the other hand, subordinates also play a big role in interpersonal communication. They help the leader to choose the right communication tactics and correct the flaws of the boss.

Thus, the communication of the object and the subject of management is an inseparable relationship and it must be considered in its entirety, in close proximity.

A leader is a person who manages, gives direction to the direction of activity. An adviser who observes the work and indicates how best to do any work.

Subordinate - a person who is subject to and dependent on the leader.

A responsible manager spends most of his life at work. In his activities, he often has to rely only on himself; when making decisions, he must be prepared for possible risks and responsibility for personnel, for the organization and its resources. This is not as easy as it seems, so many leaders strive to create a favorable psychological climate at work and improve relations with subordinates so that they are surrounded by people whom they can trust and delegate part of their authority. A warm friendly atmosphere in the team increases the motivation of the staff, unites the team and increases the efficiency of teamwork.

In the etiquette of the relationship between the leader and the subordinate, there are three styles of management. Many parameters distinguish these styles from each other: the nature of decision-making, the degree of delegation of authority, the method of control, the set of sanctions used, and more. But the main difference between them is the preferred management methods.

  • · “Authoritarian (hard) - a set of management techniques, using which the leader focuses on his own knowledge, interests, goals. The leader does not consult with colleagues or subordinates, takes tough positions and uses administrative methods of influencing people, imposing his will on them by coercion or reward. This style is most in demand at the initial stage of the formation of an organization, its workforce, when employees do not have the skills to see goals and ways to achieve them. The negative qualities of the authoritarian style include the fact that it helps to reduce the creative initiative of subordinates, worsens the socio-psychological climate, and leads to staff turnover.
  • · Liberal - a set of management techniques, the behavior of the leader, based on the transfer of tasks to subordinates, who take on some of the responsibility for their implementation. A leader who prefers this style gives subordinates almost complete freedom of action. This style is designed for managers who are well-versed in situations and are able to recognize the maturity levels of employees, transferring to them only those responsibilities that they can handle. We can talk about a liberal style of management only if these are highly effective teams and if those who are given the right to independently solve the problem are high-class specialists.
  • · “Democratic or democratic - a set of management techniques, a leader's manner of behavior based on a combination of the principle of unity of command with active involvement in decision-making, management, organization and control of subordinates. Democratic style involves influencing people with the help of convictions, a reasonable belief in the diligence and skill of subordinates. The democratic style is the most suitable for the formation of team relationships, as it forms goodwill and openness of relationships both between the leader and the subordinate, and between the subordinates themselves. This style to the maximum extent combines the methods of persuasion and coercion, helps each employee to clearly formulate his personal goals, establish effective communication between the manager and the subordinate. The negative consequences of using the democratic style include additional expenses time to discuss the problem, which in extreme conditions can drastically reduce the effectiveness of management.
  • The choice of management style depends on the situation.

Consider the situation Order:

“Each leader finds himself in a situation where you need to give some instructions to his subordinates. If this is a thinking person, he involuntarily faces a choice: in what form to complete this task, choosing between an order, an assignment, a “volunteer” and a request.

The order is most often used in emergency situations and in relation to unscrupulous employees.

“It is known that employees, guided by orders, perform their work satisfactorily. If the order is accompanied by the threat of punishment, then the level of labor efficiency is greatly reduced. Therefore, the etiquette of relations recommends avoiding the form of an order in all cases when it can be dressed in the form of a request.

The form of the request (appeal), in which the desire of the leader is expressed, should stimulate the subordinate to work, to do the indicated as best as possible, to be creative in solving the problem. But at the same time, a hasty, urgent, disrespectful form of transferring an order from a subordinate may not arouse such a desire, completely discourage him.

The ability to find the right words, the right form, tone largely depends on the general culture of the leader, his upbringing, authority, and leadership style. The higher the authority of the boss, the better he knows the etiquette of communication, the more diverse, tactful, correct forms of his appeal to subordinates. This can be a wish (“I would like you to check all the prepared documentation again before the meeting ...”), advice (“I would advise you to close the session until the end of December”), a request (“Please, please turn in term papers early so that I can check them and tell you your shortcomings that you will have to correct”), explanation of the tasks (“First - ...; Then - ...”), order (“Proceed to complete the task with tomorrow…”) or the “volunteer” form (“Who wants to take over this job?”; “No one wants to help me carry the documents to the car?” - Suitable for a situation where no one wants to do the job, but it must be done) and others

It should always be remembered that the leader, by virtue of his official role, is obliged to perform functions that will be negatively perceived by employees. “For example, a leader has the right to criticism. Critical analysis of the activities of subordinates is one of the most difficult functional duties. Based on this, subordinates need to more often refer to the principles of perception of criticism and try to use them in their relationship with the leader. The principles of perception of criticism help to objectively and balanced assess the negative aspects in one's own professional activity, as well as to see the positive elements in the critical analysis of one's work and behavior.

It is necessary to try to find favorable points of contact in the relationship between the leader and the subordinate, which are compromise solutions to emerging problems. Finding compromises in the relationship between the leader and the subordinate should not violate the principles of life and create problems for health.

It must be remembered that no leader has the right to use his official superiority outside of working hours. Also, the leader does not have the right to privileges in everyday life, in relation to older and physically weaker people.

In any structure, be it an educational, state or political environment, there are ethical standards. The success and prosperity of the company is determined by many factors, including the observance of corporate ethics. A company is a system with one purpose. It has a large number of employees who perform different tasks and have different competencies. It is not surprising that among them there are subordinates and bosses, and the effectiveness of the work process will depend on how communication is built between these parties.

Peculiarities

Business etiquette is historical in nature, evolving over the centuries, it may vary in different countries because it relies on local traditions, customs and rituals. So, for example, in Japan, business partners do not shake hands as a sign of greeting and respect, but bow slightly with palms folded in front of their chests.

Etiquette is an external form of behavior, a reflection of which is the internal morality of a person, his education and culture. Finally, this is a beautiful display of manners. Corporate ethics is a concept that combines the values, beliefs and norms of behavior of employees of one particular company.

Each company has its own corporate code - a set of rules that defines behavior in different ethical situations, in relations between employees and superiors. It is divided into two parts: ideological - the general goal or mission of the company, its values, and normative - a list of rules and behavioral standards.

Functions of the corporate code:

  • reputational - increasing the prestige of the company due to the presence of a code, which increases the trust of customers;
  • managerial - determining the standard of behavior of the team.

Thus, the code is designed to improve the corporate culture of the company, sets common ideological goals and values ​​for employees, which, in turn, increases the efficiency of their work and the work of the company as a whole.

Features of ethical corporatism are reduced to the standards adopted within the structure, they include - the rules of communication, behavior, decency, politeness, manners.

Corporate culture

In a company that believes that the customer is always right, employees act according to this principle. They will be unfailingly respectful towards the client, even the most negative one. And they will find a way out of a difficult situation, maintaining a good attitude and calmness.

Science knows many ways to form a corporate culture, we will consider the main ones:

  • Articulating the organization's intellectual vision—its values, goals, and ways of doing things—in a way that employees and customers can understand.
  • Demonstration by leaders of commitment to organizational culture, to values ​​and goals, thereby setting an example that employees should also accept and support the corporate culture.
  • Creating conditions for improving the corporate culture - encouraging teamwork, creative and creative work, mutual assistance and rejection of competition within the team, friendly and positive attitude.
  • Taking into account the conditions and principles of the existing culture when selecting new employees - paying attention to their personal qualities. Conflicting or, conversely, too infantile employees can be a weak link in the structure.
  • Encouraging compliance with norms and rules of conduct, bringing innovative ideas and constructive solutions.

Behaviors

The behavior of employees in an organization is determined not only by the list and set of internal corporate rules of the organization, but also by a set of its own psychophysical features of a person, the distribution of labor roles, the requirement for the professional activity of an employee, its assessment and control, methods and features management decisions, the peculiarity and speed of adaptation of new employees, the method of hiring them, as well as the procedure for dismissal.

Types of labor behavior:

  • Personally conditioned- the labor behavior of a person determines his personal qualities(character, temperament, emotional intelligence), as well as beliefs, ideas and values, his needs and motivations. This type is divided into several subtypes of employee behavior according to the degree of motivation: initiative, formally loyal and deviant, the latter deviating from work, not obeying the rules and superiors.
  • Role-based or functionally conditioned- behavior determines the degree of the employee's position. From an ordinary employee to a senior manager, and here their difference is natural, as well as the difference in the standard of their behavior.
  • Loyal, moderately loyal and disloyal types of behavior of employees, differing in the degree of commitment to the goals, values, etiquette rules and norms of behavior of the organization.
  • Formal labor(in accordance with the rules and regulations), informal labor (determined by real working conditions), informal labor (relations not related to work activities) types of behavior that differ in the degree of participation in activities, different in nature and goals, available in a particular organization.

Business Etiquette

We have already determined that any commercial company has its own corporate code - a set of rules and a standard of business conduct. Consider the universal rules that should be followed in any corporate environment:

  • Following the standard of business communication with both employees and customers of the company.
  • Loyalty to the company and the team, concern for the reputation of the corporation.
  • Teamwork to achieve the common goal of the corporation.
  • Compliance with quality control of the services provided or the company's products.
  • Responsible and friendly approach to working with clients.
  • Observance of subordination.
  • Following the established communication system in the team, using verbal, written, non-verbal communication.
  • Compliance with work schedule.
  • Constructive solutions in a conflict situation.
  • Continuous development of employees, participation in trainings, training courses, training and transfer of knowledge to young and new employees.
  • Compliance with job duties, encouragement and remuneration of employees, fair career growth.
  • Compliance with a business dress code (a classic suit for men, a formal trouser suit for women, or a simple cut sheath dress, a blouse with a skirt below the knees).

But it is necessary to follow ethical rules not only within the framework of the work process, but also at the joint celebrations, that is, at corporate parties.

Employees should watch how they express themselves and avoid excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages. Try not to attract the attention of your superiors, do not fawn and do not try to be too courteous.

It is not welcome to invite your wives or husbands to a party, this is allowed if it has been authorized by management.

Choosing a wardrobe for such evenings is wise, although some freedom in choosing an evening dress is allowed, but it still should not be vulgar or overly open.

Relationship Rules

The relationship between the boss and the subordinate affects the quality of the work of the subordinate and the work process as a whole. Correctly set tasks by the manager are half the success in their implementation by an ordinary employee.

Just like an employee of the lower and middle level, the leader must rely in his work on business ethics, and follow certain rules of relationships.

The success of the relationship between the leader and subordinates lies in the following foundations:

  • The manager must be an enterprising leader who will inspire and motivate his subordinates.
  • He must know all the necessary information about his employees, when communicating with them, rely on their personal and professional qualities. To be able to find an individual approach to each subordinate.
  • Be able to delegate your work, correctly distribute tasks between subordinates.
  • To exercise moderate control over the work of a subordinate in such a way that it does not reach the point of "guardianship".
  • Be able to give the employee the freedom to complete tasks.
  • Be able to thank a subordinate for a job well done.
  • Do not be afraid of the higher competence of the subordinate in certain matters or tasks and accept it.
  • Do not give empty hopes and promises that you are not going to or cannot keep.
  • Motivate subordinates not with the help of punishments, but thanks to material and moral incentives.
  • AT contentious issues be able to communicate with subordinates without raising their voices, maintain restraint and calmness. Watch your speech: do not resort to irony in your assessment, do not offend feelings, do not get personal.

  • In relation to subordinates, be friendly, but not allow familiarity.
  • Criticism and remarks should be fair and only in relation to actions, and not to a person, should be put forward calmly, preferably not in the presence of third parties.
  • The leader must be able to perceive criticism from subordinates and analyze their own behavior.
  • Be susceptible to flattery, sycophancy and admiration.
  • Do not create a circle of "favorites" and especially close ones.
  • Be an example for your employees - do not be late for work, dress according to the corporate dress code, and demand this from your employees.

In general, the leader must show justice in judgments and criticism, be attentive and sensitive to his subordinates, to their problems and experiences. He must be responsible for his team and the environment in it, as well as in the work process. AT difficult situations own your emotions, observe restraint, show firmness and calmness.

Deep thought lies in the aphorism of Matthew Arnold: "Culture is the desire for harmony and light, the main thing is for both harmony and light to prevail." And for the leader, the main thing is to create such a corporate culture that both euphony and light prevail in the teaching staff, which forms the new generation of our society. The main goals of the corporate culture are to reflect the specifics of the organization, define its "face", promote its growth and development and ensure the high efficiency and success of the work of the teaching staff in accordance with the duties delegated to them to fulfill the main mission of the school. Obeying the established ethical code of the school, the teacher strictly observes the rules and norms of behavior in the organization, internally fully accepts corporate values. In turn, these values ​​become individual values, occupying a firm place in the motivational structure of his behavior. If, in addition, the leader chooses the style of partnership, takes into account the whole range of organizational and personal problems of employees, the entire school staff takes into account the target settings, has self-discipline and self-control.
