Managing Emotions in the Workplace

Perhaps the description of such figures is quite familiar to you: coworkers who never have a pleasant words, whether in the regular weekly internal meetings as well as in the chat in the cafeteria for lunch. People like this usually takes the energy in a brainstorming session because his comments are "not important".

• 
  

  
  

  

Their tendency to easily "bore" is also disturbing. In short, their negativity can contaminate

the life of the office. As affirmed by the Wharton School of Management Professor Sigal Barsade who studied the influence of emotions in the workplace, emotion was contagious. "Various emotions spread from one person to another like a virus," he said.

Barsade join the team of writers paper "Why Does Affect Matter in Organizations?" In the study of organizational behavior, "affect" is another word for "emotion". And, answers to written questions from the paper's title: mood, emotions and attitudes of all employees have an influence on performance, decision making, creativity, turnover, teamwork, negotiation and leadership. "Everybody brings their emotions to work," says Barsade.

"You bring your brain to work. You may also bring your emotions when working. The various feelings that stir the performance."

In the paper, Barsade and his team detailing the existence of three different types of feelings:

1. Discrete, is instant emotions, like love, anger, fear and disgust.

2. Mood, namely the long-term feelings and not related to specific causes, such as someone who is gay, or inferior.

3. Dispositional, or personal qualities inherent in a person who 'defines' the relevant overall. We often hear people comment, "He's always happy," or, "He's always been prejudice."

According to Barsade, some people do have better control of his emotions than others. However, it does not mean that the people in surrounding areas not affected by their mood. "You might not realize that you're showing your emotions, but that's reflected in facial expressions or body language. The emotions that we do not realize it could affect our thinking and behavior," he said.

To the managers suggested Barsade transfering positive emotions, such as by saying, "I know you're worried. Things do not look good, but you know we have a way to overcome it and we can work together."

Employees will appreciate honesty like that and can get a sense of comfort to be optimistic.

5 Malevolent Executive Failed

An executive or manager was clearly not an easy job. In their hands of the company's future lies with its stakeholders. That's why, you do not be too having caution when appointed as CEO, director or even a manager. One-one you actually make the company stumbled, went bankrupt, lost, eliminating jobs for employees, and so on. Your reputation as a professional would ever tarnished.

Results of research by the Research Team Tuck School of Business, Dartmouth (under Sydney Finkelstein), against employed several business failures in a number of developed countries shows how the failure of the company is determined more by the poor quality of

the leader personally. Fuss, these personal qualities associated with admirable personal qualities of leaders themselves. Automation is the most destructive people who have extraordinary intelligence and talents. They always appear attractive, displaying the personal charm, and inspire others. Photos often decorate their faces magazines world-class business types Forbes, Fortune, Business Week, and so forth.

From the search for a list of companies that failed executives, ranging from Rubbermaid company to Enron, Wang Labs, Sony, and Samsung, this research team succeeded in formulating the seven executives who fail the character. This character must be a record company at all levels, from managers to CEOs.

Nature 1. They see themselves and their organizations to dominate their environment.

An executive must have big ambitions and act proactively for success, but the basis of this action must be based on the philosophy of the right. Successful leaders act proactively because they realize that they do not dominate the environment. They know, however the success in the past, they are still faced with a changing environment. They must continue to introduce new initiatives because they are unable to ensure everything happens according to expectations. Integration planning must be constantly adjusted and reviewed.

Leaders who see themselves and the environment dominate their companies forget this. They really confident with their ability to control what will happen and ignore the role of chance and condition against their success. They think they will be able to dictate to the environment. They felt that the success of themselves and their companies because they make it happen.

Nature 2. There was no line between personal interests with corporate interests.

Executive ability Management to identification interests in detail could cause them to take decisions that are not wise. In addition to treating the company as something they need to protect and exaggerated, CEOs who identified company interested too much could treat the company as an extension of themselves. They lead the company to do something that makes sense for him, but not necessarily make sense for the company. They seemed to act as the owner of the company and the right to do anything with the name of good of the company. Though, actually more for their own interests.

These executives have the mentality to take advantage of the company in order to bring own ambition, although it was not the best way to make a profit. Samsung CEO Kun-Hee Lee decided to enter the automotive business more because he liked the car. Saatchi brothers continued to expand his company, regardless of whether it produces income, but more due to the expansion of personal ego.

Nature 3. They think has all the answers

It's hard not to be impressed with detailed business leaders who know everything that is important. They are very easy make the complicated situation into something that makes sense. Beyond all that, they were given the advantage to make good decisions in any situation.

Fair if later, the mass media and the public to admire them. They are executives who can take dozens of decisions in one minute, gave orders that have a major impact for the company, could face a crisis many times, and is able to digest the situation in one second that for others it took several days to do it. At higher levels within the company, they are executive prototype is superb and should be followed. They are considered an ideal figure who always has a lot of answers to all problems, and able to give an answer as soon as the question was asked.

What happens to the executive overview of this kind is actually a scam. In the world of business conditions are constantly changing with innovation and only really take place constantly, nobody has an answer for long periods. Leaders who are always making quick decisions do not make the opportunity for deepening. This is very bad, because they already have the answers, without ever learning to find new answers. Their instincts, something that is often very important, always encourage rapid inference, does not allow the period of uncertainty, including uncertainty as it was something that really what it is.

People around the CEO is sometimes encourage the habit of making quick decisions this. They want to follow leader who always had an answer. In fact, this sort of thing actually plunged the company into trouble.

Nature 4. They rudely replace those who are not 100% supportive.

CEO with a great vision to believe that the main part of his job is to instill confidence in that vision to the whole company, invites everyone to work together realizing that vision. If a manager does not show full support, the CEO will feel his vision ignored. In turn, the CEO will ask the manager to support the plan or leave. This is the character shown by Roger Smith at GM, Jill Barad at Mattel, Bill Farley at Fruit of the Loom, Wolfgang Smith at Rubbermaid, and others.

Surely this kind of CEO action is unnecessary and destructive. CEOs do not need everyone in the company just confirmed what he had to say. The differences can actually improve the vision that they were able to overcome problems when they arise in the future.

Nature 5. Being a malevolent company spokesman, obsessed with the company image

Leader in this category is a high-profile executive, wants to always be in front of the public. They spend a lot of time by giving public speeches, appearing on TV, interviewed by reporters, build incredible charisma. They were brilliant inspire confidence in the public, employees, potential job seekers, and its main investors.

Marketing Activities

Marketing activities in the context of marketing investments refer to marketing communications, brand identity creation and other promotional activities. Each of this activities is carried out with the sole purpose of making the company and its products favorable to customers.

As such, even though the company includes a number of other functions and activities, selling the company
comes under the purview of marketing. In such a scenario, marketing activities must be viewed in the broader context of selling a company or its image to potential customers.

When marketing investments are utilized to achieve much broader objectives that expand beyond the narrow confines of the marketing department, measuring the outcomes of this investments should also be in line with such broader objectives.

The second challenge in measuring marketing productivity is the separation of marketing activities from other actions of a company. Even though many marketing investment are made for the company as a whole, only marketing productivity is measured and not the returns on the company as a whole. As such, it does not project the actual complete picture. Isolating marketing activities from other company activities only compounds this problem.

As such, even though the company includes a number of other functions and activities, selling the company
comes under the purview of marketing. In such a scenario, marketing activities must be viewed in the broader context of selling a company or its image to potential customers.

When marketing investments are utilized to achieve much broader objectives that expand beyond the narrow confines of the marketing department, measuring the outcomes of this investments should also be in line with such broader objectives.

The second challenge in measuring marketing productivity is the separation of marketing activities from other actions of a company. Even though many marketing investment are made for the company as a whole, only marketing productivity is measured and not the returns on the company as a whole. As such, it does not project the actual complete picture. Isolating marketing activities from other company activities only compounds this problem.

The story of these men has been embroidered over the years into various myths and legend. In one version of the tale, valentine resists a law attributed to the Roman Emperor Claudius II ordering that young men remain single.

In other version of the myth, valentine is imprisoned by Claudius and subsequently falls in love with the daughter of his jailer. Before he is executed sends her a note signed, “from your valentine”.

In the middle ages, literary legend Geoffrey Chaucer and the flourishing

Tradition of courtly love cemented valentine’s day into the calendar, turning it into a romantic holiday.

Chaucer’s Parliament is set in the fictional context of a valentine day’s tradition, but of course no such tradition existed before Chaucer wrote about it.

Valentine’s Day was reinvented in the 1840s when an American woman, Esther Howland, created the first mass produced cards which were made of embossed paper lace. The traditional exchange of love notes has now blossomed into an industry that sees an amazing one billion cards sent every year.

In a rather telling confirmation of the oft heard female assertion that mean are unromantic, it has been estimated that a disproportionate 85 percent of these cards are purchased by women. Most recently in a send-up of po-faced political correctness, Valentine’s Day has been renamed Single Awareness Day by some bright spark.
