I have always been told to execute what you were told. Never deviate from your instructions of your leadership. Follow orders and failing to do so disrespect to your chain of command. This day and age we must deal with Generation Y. Most of who you need to explain why we are executing this mission. This would have been frowned upon 20years ago as disrespect. With the world changing, more information is passed along the ranks. This helps others understand why the smallest thing they’re asked to do is so important. Change is difficult and hard to do. Especially when you have been performing and acting one way for so long. The hardest part is getting everyone to buy into the adjustment.
A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF THE ORGANIZATION
Sir,
I am writing you to bring your attention to something that may be important you and this company moving forward. The way business is conducted on a day to day routine. I know building this company up from the ground took a lot of hard work and dedication. You were there every step of the way instructing us on what to do and how to do it. This was needed to instill a certain way of life in this organization. The company began to profit from that hard work and dedication. It has been over two decades and times haves changed. The company is no longer in the beginning stages and has over 10 locations with over 330 employees. I understand the ways things were, but we must change with the times. The strict leadership and management style of being told what to do when to do it, and how to do it, is needed. But you won’t always be everywhere to ensure this is happening. You should think about empowering your lower level managers to make small decisions for you. Have a weekly meeting with all store managers to ensure nothing to outlandish is happening. That way you can be informed about small changes. If needed you can still give your input to make change at all locations. Doing so can take some stress off your shoulders.
I have investigated using a Servant Leadership Style. My employees are highly trained and perform well every day. I have an ear to listen to complains and fix them. Also, I ensure they have everything they need to accomplish every task I have asked of them. Additionally, I believe we should reward those who set themselves apart from others. I ask that you take a second to think about it. Your staff moral could improve along with the company’s profits.
Very Respectfully,
T.S
