Hi Gayathri,
Such scenarios do happen. What you require to do is take charge. Finally whatever they do you are their boss.
In such scenarios, being professional is more imp than being emotional.
The most important thing that requires to be done by you is firstly call a meeting, in which at all times you require to be very cordial.
Tell them that the change has taken place and they have to work in the present. You can even praise your predecessor and request them to give you the same kind of support.
You have to draw their attention to the fact that the success of the department is dependent on each and every person and we have to work as a team.
Create KRAs and hand over the brief to every team member. This could be done in the second meeting.
Inform them that their appraisal is based on their achievements.
Create accountability in the organisation.
Your team will realize that they cant fool around and will start respecting you.
You require to be assertive at all times.
This is a very brief suggestion. Incase you can inform me about your exact and specific problem, I could. be of assistance to you as I personally have handled such situations and as a consultant have also advised promoters on staff handling.
