Management Fundaes-I

Lately my mind has been hatching some insane management ideas....which i think would have fetched great accolades had they come out of the mouth of great management gurus. Nevertheless, I am posting it here in the interest of general public or so i believe.
Though i find little motivation to type it all again after the office server, deliberately or intentionally, failed my repeated attempts to publish this and eventually I lost it all. But this time I believe I will be lucky.

Well some of the reasons you may be reading this are: you are lost and you accidently landed up here, you are expecting some great great management ideas with the potential to change the way the world works and last but not the least and probably the most probable reason that you are jobless enuf to surf through all the blogs in the world. Whatever the reason may be, all I can say is that I can not give any sort of satisfaction guarantee after you read this and your time lost will be totally your responsibility.

-Well first of all most of the conficts that we see arising in our office environment or outside are tainted by ego. So lets say a conflict ensues between me and my colleague and later on I realise that I was the one at fault. So in order to rectify the situation I should do something and in most of the cases what happens I am pulled back by my ego, especially when the other fellow is a junior. That time saying sorry becomes the most difficult thing in the world to do and more often we wait for something to happen to rectify the situation.

So while I was just pondering over this thing a revolutionary idea hit me. The idea goes like-whenever someone wants to say sorry to someone and he feels unable to do that....all he needs to do is just go ahead and say''hey dude, i owe you a treat or a coffee." And later on while they are at the table, he should elaborate on what he thought and how he went wrong, blah blah blah. So this saves the person from having to swallow his dignity too much and then say a half-hearted sorry.

Though easier said that done, it will definitely take some effort on the part of the doer.However I find this idea a very stong ice-breaker and this could possibly chanage the way we look at and deal with different situations. The biggest barriers in the world will break if we just talk(copied from airtel ad) and that talk could be anything, from the most stupidiest to the most intellectual, so long as you dont pain yourself to say it. So go ahead and sip away all your grudges and grievances in a cup of coffee.

Well thats it for now. I will dwell upon more such enlightening fundaes as and when they come to me. Till then enjoy your treat.
