      <title>SIX STEPS FOR CONDUCTING AN INVESTIGATION</title>
      <link>http://www.messagedance.com/message/show/38f1989b009df1496c65e1e4c35109f6</link>
      <description>&lt;div dir="ltr"&gt;&lt;div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Investigating misconduct or rule violations   is a necessary, but unpleasant, job for most HR professionals. Investigations   should be conducted whenever there are complaints of serious workplace problems,   including rule or policy violations (such as violating the safety &lt;br /&gt;or   harassment policy), misconduct (such as falsifying records or reports), or   criminal acts (such as stealing). In addition, you also should be prepared to   investigate lesser problems, even without a formal complaint, like rumors or   suspicions of rule violations or wrongdoing. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The consequences of   investigations that are not fair or thorough can be extensive. If your   termination or disciplinary decisions are based on flawed investigations, they   may trigger employee lawsuits for defamation, discrimination, harassment, or   wrongful termination. In fact, even the accused wrongdoer may sue when an   investigation is handled poorly or &lt;br /&gt;the decision appears unfounded.   Significantly, courts tend to punish employers that do not conduct thorough   investigations. In addition, employee morale may suffer if employment decisions   appear unfair or arbitrary because the process was not thorough or   objective.&amp;nbsp; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, to help prevent these problems and ensure an   effective investigation, the following six elements should be part of your   investigative process:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;1.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;u&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Trained and Objective   Investigator:&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/u&gt; The qualifications and demeanor of the person   conducting the investigation will influence the perception of fairness. Ideally,   the person should have special training and experience in human relations,   employment law, and conflict resolution. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Many employers rely on their   internal HR professionals or security officers in this role. However, an outside   investigator may be appropriate if the issues are particularly sensitive or   legally complex. (Note that if you use an outside investigator, you may have to   comply with certain disclosure requirements under the Fair Credit Reporting Act,   as amended by the Fair and Accurate Credit Transactions Act of 2003.) In   addition, some states, such as California, require that third-party   investigators be licensed by the state.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;2.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Written   Procedures:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; You should establish specific procedures to be followed   by supervisors and managers who must conduct investigations. The written   procedures should address each step of the process and provide guidelines for   fact finding (including choosing and interviewing witnesses), proper   documentation of the investigation steps &lt;br /&gt;and the facts revealed, protection   of confidentiality, and communication of results.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;3.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;A   Timely Process:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Investigations should be completed as quickly as   possible after a complaint is filed, the misconduct is observed, or the alleged   incident occurs. Normally, no more than a few days should elapse between each   step in the process; and ideally, the investigation should be completed within   five to ten days. Of course, investigations &lt;br /&gt;that involve complicated issues   like harassment or theft may take longer.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;&lt;font face="Arial"&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;4.&lt;/strong&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Careful   Fact-finding:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; The investigator should begin by gathering as many   facts as possible about the problem, either by interviewing the complaining   party, or if no one made a complaint, by interviewing people who may be involved   or who may have witnessed the problem. As a general rule, the investigator   should talk to any person who may have &lt;br /&gt;information that would either prove   or disprove that the alleged conduct occurred. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To obtain as much detail   as possible, the investigator should ask probing and open-ended questions that   do not suggest the answer. Interviews should focus on the specific facts of what   happened (like when, where, and who was involved) and preserve confidentiality   by addressing only the details that the particular person would know. In   addition, the tone of &lt;br /&gt;each interview should be professional, and everyone   interviewed should be reminded that the organization will not retaliate, or   tolerate retaliation, against anyone for participating in the   investigation.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;5.&lt;/b&gt; &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Documented Results:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; All   steps in the process should be recorded and documented in writing. Written   records, properly compiled, aid everyone's memory and can be invaluable in   demonstrating, to employees and, if necessary, to a court, the fairness of the   investigation and ultimate decision. Since these records may be used in legal   proceedings, the information recorded should be limited to facts disclosed and   behavior observed and should not include any speculation about what happened.   &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;6. &lt;u&gt;Final Decision and Communication:&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt; Once the   investigation is completed, management should evaluate the evidence and make a   decision. Although most managers and human resources professionals worry about   making the "perfect" decision, neither employees nor the courts expect legal   perfection. Rather, they expect a rationale decision based on a thorough   investigation. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In fact, courts generally do not second-guess employer   actions, even when later proven wrong, if management acted fairly and in good   faith. Therefore, you do not have to meet a strict rule of evidence "beyond a   reasonable doubt," as for a criminal offense, in order to make a proper   employment decision. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As a last step, all appropriate parties should be   informed of the decision. This communication can be used as an opportunity to   underscore the fairness of the process. However, to prevent defamation claims,   you should be careful to limit dissemination of the information to those who   have a legitimate need to know.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br clear="all" style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;&lt;br style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;-- &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;  &lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;Looking for executive positions around Mumbai region?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;  &lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;Email me your resume nitinisshukla at gmail dot com&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);" /&gt;&lt;span style="background-color: rgb(255, 255, 153);"&gt;45 companies, 323 vacant middle management positions  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description>

      <title>EIGHT THINGS EMPLOYEES WANT. GUESS WHAT? MONEY IS NOT THERE.</title>
      <link>http://www.messagedance.com/message/show/247e2b6444a9c58fd4c04c2dcff46ad2</link>
      <description>&lt;font face="Arial" size="2"&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Tangible rewards   play a role in job satisfaction, says today&amp;#39;s expert, but for many workers, the   &amp;quot;happiness factor&amp;quot; depends heavily on intangibles, such as respect, trust, and   fairness.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Is money the key to retention and productivity? It helps, says   the Christian Science Monitor&amp;#39;s Marilyn Gardner, but it&amp;#39;s not enough. Beyond pay   and benefits lie eight key factors that influence &amp;quot;happiness&amp;quot; at work-factors   that motivate workers and keep them at your organization. Here&amp;#39;s our   distillation of Gardner&amp;#39;s eight factors, as found   on the website, &lt;a href="http://communityinvestmentnetwork.org/" target="_blank"&gt;communityinvestmentnetwork.org&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Appreciation&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Praise heads the   list for many workers, and it doesn&amp;#39;t cost the employer anything to provide it,   says Gardner. A sincere thank you or   a short note can mean a great deal.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;2.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Respect&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Again there is no   cost and a big payback. Respect plays out in letting people know that their work   is appreciated, in treating them like adults, and in being fair in your dealings   with them.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;3.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Trust&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Trust is the action   side of respect. People need guidance, but they need to know that their boss   trusts them to be able to get a job done on their own.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;4.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Individual Growth&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Today&amp;#39;s   workers-especially the Gen Y group-want training, want to take on new   challenges, and want to advance based on their new abilities. Giving a raise   without increasing responsibilities could actually backfire, notes   Gardner. As one expert says, if you   give more money to an unhappy employee, you end up with a wealthier unhappy   employee.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;5. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Good   Boss&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;It&amp;#39;s the old saw:   People don&amp;#39;t leave companies, they leave bosses. In a recent Robert Half survey,   Gardner notes that 1,000 Gen Y   workers ranked &amp;quot;working with a manager I can respect and learn from&amp;quot; as the most   important aspect of their work environment.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;6.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Compatible Co-workers&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Working with people   you enjoy is also very important, says   Gardner. Spending the day-every   day-with people you don&amp;#39;t like does not make for a productive workplace.   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;7.   &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;Compatible Culture&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Employees want a   work environment that fits their needs. That could mean hard-driving, high   paying, or it could mean high flexibility and significant attention to work/life   balance.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;8. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;u&gt;A   Sense of Purpose&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;People want to know   that they are contributing to something worthwhile. They need to know what the   organization&amp;#39;s core purpose is and what it is trying to achieve. And then they   need to know how their particular job fits into the whole.   &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;One of the   interesting things that Gardner   discovered about employee &amp;quot;happiness&amp;quot; is that there is a disconnect between what   managers think and what employees think about happiness at   work.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;font size="2"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Managers tend to   think that salary and benefits are the main motivators, while workers   consistently respond that factors such as those mentioned above are what&amp;#39;s   important. Successful organizations will find a good balance to retain their   best people.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- &lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;Looking for executive positions around Mumbai region?&lt;br /&gt;Email me your resume nitinisshukla at gmail dot com&lt;br /&gt;  45 companies, 323 vacant middle management positions</description>

      <title>Employee is threatening with suicide. What will you recommend?</title>
      <link>http://www.messagedance.com/message/show/a31cf829e0cc6fc23e7cbd2c4872cf96</link>
      <description>&lt;span style="font-size: 14pt; color: rgb(0, 102, 0);"&gt;Friend sent me this email:::::::&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One of a senior  sales employee in&amp;nbsp;an organisation was found cheating by forging his  expenses statement, when confronted he refused bluntly even after  producing evidence to that effect, subsequently when we told him that  it will not be possible for us to allow him to continue to work, he  threatened that he will suicide. We allowed him to calm down and spoke  to him after 3-4 days, but he continuted his stance saying that if we  dismiss him, his life will be ruined and he will be left with no other  option but to suicide. We have written a letter to the Local Police  Station as well as at the Police Station where he resides. For the time  being we have suspended him which he has accepted as well. He is a  probationary employee and has joined has hardly 2 months ago and the  misconduct (forgery) was found in the expense statement of the first  month. We want to terminate him as per the appointment letter which  says any employee who is under probation can be terminated without  assigning any reason. we are worried for - his precious life leaving  behind his family, he leaves a suicide note stating that he has been  forced to suicide by us, putting us in legal trouble. We also do not  want to keep him suspended for long so as to allow him to find an  another job as this is a costly preposition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- &lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;Looking for executive positions around Mumbai region?&lt;br /&gt;Email me your resume nitinisshukla at gmail dot com&lt;br /&gt;  45 companies, 323 vacant middle management positions</description>

Just think about it for moment, what's the key difference?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;  &lt;font size="3"&gt;When  I ask this question in seminars the two most common answers are "chess is more  difficult" and "chess is more strategic" both answers are true, of course, but  both are unsatisfactory.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;They  leave the essence of the difference unexplained. Why exactly is chess more  difficult, more strategic?&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;  &lt;font size="3"&gt;If  you have a natural talent for managing (and have some familiarity with the game  of chess), I'll bet you immediately landed on the right answer. The key  difference between the checkers and chess is that in checkers the pieces all  move in the same way, whereas in chess all the pieced move differently. Thus if  you want to excel it the game of chess you have to learn how the each piece  moves into your overall plan of attack.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt;&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;  &lt;font size="3"&gt;The  same is true for the game of managing. Mediocre managers play checkers with  their people. They assume or hope that their employees will be motivated by the  same things, driven by the same goals, desire same kind of relationships, and  learn in roughly the same way. When they coach their people, they identify  which of these behaviors each employee is struggling with, and then tell the  employees to work on these behaviors and practice them until they become habit.  They believe that the job of the managers is to mold, or transform each  employee into perfect version of the role. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;  &lt;font size="3"&gt;Great  managers don't, they do the opposite. They know that even if employees are  selected against the same set of talents or competencies, such is the  complexity of human nature that the differences among these employees will far  outweigh the similarities. These are the personality difference. The grand  majority of these differenced are enduring and resistance to change. So, given  that your most precious resource as a manger is time, by far the most effective  way to invest your time is to identify exactly how each employee is different  then, as in chess, figure out how you can incorporate these differences into  your overall plan of action. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;&lt;font size="3"&gt; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify; font-family: verdana,helvetica,sans-serif; color: rgb(0, 64, 127);"&gt;  &lt;font size="3"&gt;Great  managing is not about transformation – if you dedicate yourself to transforming  each employee into some predetermined perfect version of the role, you will  wind up frustration yourself and annoying the employee. Great managing is about  release. It is about constantly tweaking, the world so that the unique needs,  the unique style of each employee can be given a free rein.&lt;span&gt;&amp;nbsp; &lt;/span&gt;The success of a manager will depend almost  entirely on your skill at doing this.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- &lt;br /&gt;-------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;Looking for executive positions around Mumbai region?&lt;br /&gt;Email me your resume nitinisshukla at gmail dot com&lt;br /&gt;  45 companies, 323 vacant middle management positions</description>

      <title>How new managers become great managers</title>
      <link>http://www.messagedance.com/message/show/a3a7ba916160791cb7833f765521644d</link>
      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;Read this...&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size="4"&gt;How new managers become great managers&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;big&gt;Through&lt;/big&gt; my research, teaching, and consulting over the  past ten years, I have come to understand more deeply than ever that  the best managers are those who have an appetite for learning and are  willing to work on themselves. Management is very hard; even the most  gifted people must commit themselves to lifelong learning and  self-development. In the course of my work, I have had the privilege of  developing teaching materials about many experienced leaders and their  career development. This chapter builds on stories from some of the  talented managers I&amp;#39;ve encountered who are out there making a  difference in their organizations. We can learn vicariously from their  experiences.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Consider the example of one manager who was about to undergo a  critical transition in her career, only four years after first becoming  a manager. When she was about to step into an executive role as senior  vice president of marketing at a nationwide office supplies superstore,  she recalled:&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#39;m not a good example of how to manage your career.  I&amp;#39;ve just been willing to raise my hand several times for new  opportunities. I&amp;#39;ve taken a lot of what others would perceive to be  career risks, which fortunately have worked out....&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#1" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;1&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;    &lt;p&gt;This manager is much too modest. She is an excellent role model for  how to manage our careers if we hope to move into ever more important  managerial positions. From her story, we see that leadership can be an  exciting but arduous journey of self-development. Over the course of  her first years at the company, she made a series of upward and lateral  moves that entailed a number of tough assignments across many  functional areas.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Beginning as the director of regional operations in New England,  this manager had profit and loss responsibility for fifty  underperforming stores. Hiring a strong team of direct reports, she set  store standards, instituted training programs, and rejuvenated  performance. Due to her success in operations over the next two years,  this manager received two more challenging assignments. First, she  became director of sales for 150 stores on the east coast, and then, a  year later, she was promoted to vice president and divisional  merchandise manager for furniture and decorative supplies. There she  had profit and loss responsibility for $350 million and twelve people  in an area with poor assortment of merchandise, flat sales, and low  direct product profitability. She and her team turned over 75 percent  of the assortment, tripled net direct product profitability, and  increased sales. When she advanced again, she moved back into the  marketing department as senior vice president of small business and  retail marketing. Three years later, based on her performance, she was  appointed president of the company&amp;#39;s e-commerce business, a key  strategic initiative for the future success of the company.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;blockquote&gt;The best managers are those who have an &lt;strong&gt; appetite for learning&lt;/strong&gt; and are willing to work on themselves. &lt;/blockquote&gt;     &lt;p&gt;This manager, like the other effective leaders I have studied, is a  self-directed learner willing to reinvent herself time and again. In  the pages that follow, I will build on the previous discussion of power  to present a framework for lifelong learning developing a successful  managerial &lt;em&gt;career&lt;/em&gt;. I will address four challenges: choosing  the right position; getting off to the right start; landing stretch  assignments; and building a network of developmental relationships. In  framing each of these four challenges from the point of view of the  emerging leader, I hope to underscore my belief that management,  especially the leadership functions, cannot be taught. Instead,  managers who want to take on more and more responsibility over the  course of their careers must ask themselves: Am I preparing myself to  manage and lead?&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;h3&gt;How can we learn to manage and lead?&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Although some of the qualities of effective management are &amp;quot;innate&amp;quot;  or acquired principally through pre-work socialization (personal  integrity, high energy level, and a drive to lead), much of leadership  is learned.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#2" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;2&lt;/a&gt;  Management is primarily learned from on-the-job experiences—by doing,  observing, and interacting with others. As unsettling as it is, we have  found that the essence of development is diversity and adversity.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#3" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;3&lt;/a&gt;  Warren Bennis, a renowned leadership expert, has concluded that it is  the &amp;quot;crucibles,&amp;quot; or tests and trials, in an individual&amp;#39;s life that  profoundly shape them as leaders.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#4" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;4&lt;/a&gt; As many have observed, however, people do not always learn from their experiences.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#5" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;5&lt;/a&gt;  To make meaning from their experiences, managers need to reflect on and  consolidate the lessons of those experiences. To change and grow, they  must be prepared to engage periodically in introspection—to collect  feedback on and analyze their behavior, attitudes, and values. The  difficulty in remaining objective about oneself, however, is well  documented. There are mechanisms that keep people from honestly  evaluating themselves.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#6" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;6&lt;/a&gt; The more candid feedback that managers can obtain from varied sources, the more accurate and precise their assessment will be.&lt;/p&gt;      &lt;blockquote&gt;The &lt;strong&gt; best assignments&lt;/strong&gt;   from a developmental perspective are ones in which the fit is imperfect—it is a &amp;#39;stretch&amp;#39;...&lt;/blockquote&gt;     &lt;p&gt;Indeed, people find it nearly impossible to accomplish their  development alone. To grow and develop, individuals must be prepared to  seek assistance. They must devote time and energy to building a network  of developmental relationships (superior and lateral, internal and  external to the organization). From these developmental relationships  (e.g., mentors or sponsors), potential managers can better learn from  their own experiences by receiving feedback, advice, and emotional  support. These relationships can be helpful only if the managers are  willing to take some risks, disclose some of their shortcomings, and  open themselves to constructive criticism—admittedly a tall order.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;h3&gt;Choosing the right position&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Establishing a management career begins with choosing the right  positions along the way. Managers should take into account two factors  when making decisions about which job opportunities to pursue: How good  is the fit between who they are and the position (and the  organization)? How good is the fit between who they are and who they  want to be? That is, what types of learning opportunities does the  position offer? To the extent that the fit is &amp;quot;perfect&amp;quot;—that the  manager has the requisite talents and characteristics (personal values  that match the corporate culture) to do the job—the manager will be in  a better position to make an immediate contribution to organizational  performance.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#7" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;7&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Admittedly, &amp;quot;fit&amp;quot; is subjective, and all too often women or  minorities have been excluded because others have not found them to  &amp;quot;fit.&amp;quot; One way individuals have coped with this reality is to hide who  they really are or how they really think until they get a foot in the  door. This can be a dangerous tactic. If an individual&amp;#39;s values are not  consistent with those of the company, the compromises demanded may be  considerable. Besides, becoming a credible leader of others when acting  out an inauthentic self is very hard.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#8" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;8&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;The best assignments from a developmental perspective are ones in  which the fit is imperfect—it is a &amp;quot;stretch&amp;quot; (in terms of talent, not  values). These assignments are riskier, since the manager is more  likely to make mistakes that might set back his or her career progress  or have a negative impact on organizational performance. But they are  also the kinds of assignments from which managers can acquire new  knowledge, skills, perspective, and judgment.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;People should look for jobs in which they can leverage initial fit  to establish a self-reinforcing cycle of success whereby, year after  year, they acquire more of the sources of power necessary to be  effective and successful. They should pursue situations in which their  strengths are really needed, important weaknesses are not a &lt;em&gt;serious&lt;/em&gt;  drawback, and their core values are consistent with those of the  organization; in other words, the stretch should not be too big or the  risk too great.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#9" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;9&lt;/a&gt;  Risk should be commensurate with the individual&amp;#39;s ability to cope with  and responsibly manage it (for the sake of both the organization and  individual). As a general rule of thumb, the risk is probably too great  if it will take more than six months to progress far enough along the  learning curve to produce meaningful results in a particular job.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#10" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;10&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;blockquote&gt;Those &lt;strong&gt; early in their careers&lt;/strong&gt;   can glean important self-insight through careful and systematic introspection.&lt;/blockquote&gt;     &lt;p&gt;People should seek out diverse experiences to facilitate and balance  their development in multiple areas. This is precisely what our manager  mentioned at the beginning of this chapter did; she rotated through  operations, sales, merchandising, and marketing. Those who are able to  grow beyond their initial strengths and develop a broad repertoire of  talents are more likely to progress in their careers because they have  the requisite abilities to meet the ever-changing demands of their  jobs. In this regard, studies that compare high-potential managers who  have &amp;quot;derailed&amp;quot; (become plateaued or terminated) with high-potential  managers who have made it to senior executive positions are  enlightening.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#11" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;11&lt;/a&gt;  One characteristic of those who derail is that initial strengths (e.g.,  a &amp;quot;hands-on&amp;quot; style or technical virtuosity) later become &amp;quot;fatal flaws.&amp;quot;  When faced with new and different challenges, these managers continue  to rely on their initial capabilities, even when they are no longer  sufficient or appropriate. They are unable or unwilling to develop  other complementary capabilities.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;In terms of developing leadership talents in particular, it can pay  to look for stretch assignments involving change. Some examples include  introducing a new product or information technology system,  revitalizing a mature business, or starting up a subsidiary in an  international market. These sorts of assignments, almost by definition,  require individuals to establish direction, communicate that direction  (vision and strategies) to diverse stakeholders, and figure out how to  motivate the stakeholders to implement the strategies and fulfill the  vision. The more revolutionary—as opposed to evolutionary—the change,  the more powerful the leadership learning opportunities.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;h3&gt;Getting off to the right start&lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;p&gt;Managers must be aware of their strengths, limitations, motives, and  values in order to make the appropriate trade-offs between fit and  learning opportunity when selecting a position.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#12" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;12&lt;/a&gt;  However, they only become aware of who they are and who they want to  become through experience. As they accumulate work experience, they  have an opportunity to make choices and test those choices, and begin  to clarify what they are good at and what is important to them.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#13" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;13&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Hence, those early in their careers may have only a vague sense of  their talents, motivations, and values. All too often, they get off to  a bad start by selecting jobs and organizations that simply do not fit  their capabilities, motives, and values very well. Because they are not  clear about who they are and the kinds of jobs to which they are best  suited, they are easily seduced by the money, glamour, or prestige  associated with a given job. Some define the &amp;quot;good&amp;quot; opportunities as  those that are popular in the social milieu in which they find  themselves. These individuals end up taking jobs because the jobs are  the popular choice and not because they are excited by the people with  whom they will be spending time or the products or services with which  they will be working. For those in the minority, given the special  challenges of building developmental relationships (discussed below),  it is best to pay particular attention to how comfortable they are with  their potential colleagues.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;In other instances, people choose jobs that are too demanding for  them. Because they do not fully appreciate their strengths and  weaknesses, they get themselves into situations where they are simply  in over their heads. For example, newly minted MBAs who have never had  subordinates reporting to them before may take jobs in which they will  have considerable people management responsibilities, with little sense  of the risk in doing so. Professional school graduates should be  cautious about accepting jobs in highly politicized environments where  only those who are very skillful at handling difficult work  relationships can prosper.&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;Those early in their careers can glean important self-insight  through careful and systematic introspection. In particular, they  should look for pervasive themes in their past and current experiences  that say something about their key strengths, important limitations,  and core values. For example, in trying to decide whether or not to  move into a leadership role, people should ask themselves the following  questions about what kind of work they find most interesting and  fulfilling:&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Do I like collaborative work? &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Do I tend to become the leader of groups in which I find myself? &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Have I ever volunteered to coach or tutor others? &lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Do I find it intriguing to work on thorny, ambiguous problems? &lt;/li&gt;  &lt;li&gt;Do I cope well with stress (e.g., extended hours, tough personal decisions)?&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;    &lt;p&gt;If they cannot answer most of these questions in the affirmative, it  may suggest that they have neither the personal qualities, character,  nor motivation required to be an effective manager.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#14" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;14&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;    &lt;p&gt;If people choose an appropriate position, they will be able to  convert their general competencies into company- and job-specific  expertise, develop relationships, and make a contribution to  organizational performance in relatively short order. Once they begin  to make a contribution to organizational performance (perhaps in a  limited way at first), their track record and credibility in the  organization will begin to grow. Therefore, people will begin to seek  them out and be more eager to work with them; in other words, their  network of relationships will grow. Some will be willing to sponsor and  perhaps even mentor them, taking risks on their behalf and promoting  them into stretch assignments. From these assignments, they develop  more expertise and more relationships and therefore are in an even  better position to contribute to key organizational objectives.&lt;/p&gt;    Soon, this cycle of success becomes self-reinforcing; their track  record and credibility continue to flourish. As they acquire more power  and establish relationships with a broad range of people, they find  themselves holding a more central position in their network of  relationships—and thereby they gain even more power and access to  currencies.&lt;a href="http://hbswk.hbs.edu/item/3629.html#15" rel="nofollow" target="_blank"&gt;15&lt;/a&gt; Once they begin to advance, they acquire more formal authority and can consolidate their power.&lt;br clear="all" /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;-- &lt;br /&gt;  -------------------------------------------------------------------------------&lt;br /&gt;Looking for executive positions around Mumbai region?&lt;br /&gt;Email me your resume nitinisshukla at gmail dot com&lt;br /&gt;45 companies, 323 vacant middle management positions</description>
