Postmen

In 2001, the government has to modernize, to put together a new management team at Royal Mail with the order and repair the poor relations between management and unions. Instead, they succeeded in modernizing the trauma, the entire organization and create a certain alienation between management and staff that we have seen since the turn of the miners in the 80s.

The Guardian * 8 of the 09th October reports: "Our story today in the Royal Mail will lose an important contract with Amazon comes with a big bang and terrible time. There is a direct link between the Royal Mail will lose its biggest customer, and another case due today - the likelihood for the Announcement of the Communication Workers Union "a national strike action. Which would be followed by months of regional disruption, the Himalayan residues in deliveries and a deepening sense that the post is unreliable, abandoned. "

Are we really living in the 21st century? As a management team can now come up with a modernization plan is archaic? The apparent failure of modernization list headed by men. Employee engagement is an ongoing issue. It is in the headlines every day. How could you do not it?

There are skills you can learn to engage, motivate, connect and use energy more manpower. The modernization is much more than a smart capital, a few extra trucks and a savings plan. You need a modern relationship between managers and non-managers. You need a relationship between managers and you need a relationship between the teams. Modern management is about relationships and engaging hearts and minds.

I recently spoke with someone from the office of telling me how managers treat employees like children. One of many examples he gave was that he was raising his hand to a supervisor's permission before they can see the toilet. If you manage adults about the children they will behave like children. You get what you pursue.

A reliable postal service is important. It is an important part of our infrastructure in many ways. We rely on an efficient postal service for so many things. It is dedicated to an important task and must send dedicated people, so he did. If you underestimate the people who underestimate the service.

The current management team, our post office probably traumatized by the lack of people skills, naivety and ignorance. It will take a completely different team to get service again. I doubt that the team is now time for the skills and attitudes needed to expand our postal services in order to recover from injuries and in the 21's. Commitment requires requires interpersonal skills, strategic investments and commitment to the development of people and social skills.
