you? How will you deal with this situation
Answer Posted / surender yadav
I would have a patient listening with him. Since project
activities are similar to compartments. Hence frustrations
and anxiety shall be a routine attribute to these
individual compartments. It would be better to explain him
the entire project and his position in the Chain. After all
each of weak chain has to be identified and strenghtened.
The symptons of weak chain may be frustations, blame game
etc. So this would help.
Having a regular meeting with project team helps to ease out
and smoothen the functioning.
However seldom 360 reporting is required and the
subordinate has the right to approach the management.
