EPISODE 111: SETTLE FIGHTS BETWEEN TEAMS?

SOMETIMES WE FIND OURSELVES STUCK BETWEEN TWO FIGHTING TEAMS. SHOULD YOU JOIN THE BATTLE OR NOT?

YOU HAVE TO ENGAGE IF YOU ARE GOING TO CHANGE SOMETHING BUT THAT ACTION WILL HAVE A REACTION AND YOU NEED TO THINK THROUGH THE IMPLICATIONS.

MCGREGOR SUGGESTS THAT THERE ARE TWO FUNDAMENTAL APPROACHES TO MANAGING PEOPLE – X THEORY AND Y THEORY. IS ONE BETTER THAN THE OTHER? LET’S SEE.

YOU MIGHT THINK PEOPLE SHOULD BE MOTIVATED JUST BECAUSE YOU PAY THEM, BUT THE TRUTH IS THAT KEEPING SOMEONE MOTIVATED IS MORE THAN THAT.

YOU MAY NOT AGREE WITH THE APPROACH A DIFFERENT GENERATION MAY TAKE BUT IF YOU WANT TO INFLUENCE IT, YOU NEED TO UNDERSTAND IT.

IF YOU WANT TO GET INVOLVED IN THE SOCIAL MEDIA WORLD, YOU NEED TO HAVE A VOICE. BLOGGING IS A GREAT WAY TO GET YOUR IDEAS OUT THERE.

LIKE FRIENDS AND CONTACTS, YOU NEED TO KEEP A CONNECTION TO YOUR REFERENCES IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BE VALUABLE.

GETTING EQUITY IN A COMPANY IS A GREAT WAY FOR YOU TO BE COMPENSATED AND FOR YOUR EMPLOYER TO RETAIN YOU.

OFTEN WHEN WE LOOK AT NEW JOBS, THE MAIN THING WE THINK ABOUT IS THE MONEY. ALTHOUGH SALARY MAY BE THE LARGEST PART, OTHER COMPENSATION MAY BE MORE.

THINKING ABOUT SUING YOUR EMPLOYER? BEFORE YOU DO, CONSIDER THE POINTS IN THIS EPISODE AND SEEK PROPER LEGAL COUNSEL.
