Hi,
I am also facing same kind of situation in my organization. Its a startup and i am the first person who has joined as a HR. people are not ready to accept the changes. They do not take it seriously if i implement some policy, which are helpful for day to day workings. They think that i am making a prison for them. However, these are simple policies Like:
They have to punch in attendance machine twice incoming and outgoing.
They are spending too much time outside office.
Using peons for their personal work
and many more small small things
Can some help me out in this matter

Dear Ms. Arpita,

Whatever i had learned in my life is purely based on my experience.

Let me give you a small example. Hope you will enjoy it.

1) A parent, who taught her child(from the child hood)

a) how to live a DISCIPLINED LIFE & its benefits,

b) GOOD DIET SYSTEM(eating healthy food where he did not expose to TASTY FOOD, which makes one to loose self control, invite problems pertaining to health conditions etc)

c) How to speak/behave with elders, youngsters,

d) How to inculcate GOOD HABITS and its benefits etc

2) A parent who did not teach anything but off late had realized that, its time to teach her child many good things which were supposed to happen when she was young. Henceforth parent adopts a method which will help/support her child understanding the facts filled with rewarding benefits.

a) If the child embraces GOOD HABITS by listening her parent advice, then its the child who will benefitted, besides parents hardwork will be appreciated by others else, both child and the parent will suffer.

b). Since the child has grown into teen or ADULT, Its takes time to make her child embrace good habits as its a time consuming process.

a) Now, replace the parent with TOP MANAGEMENT because WITHOUT YOUR TOP MANAGEMENT'S SUPPORT YOU CAN'T ACHIEVE SUCCESS IN YOUR MISSION, though whatever you had planned to do will benefit your organisation. THE SOLUTION LIES IN YOUR TOP MANAGEMENT HANDS, AS THE BALL IS IN THEIR COURT.

b) Understand your responsibilities. It is not you, who is held responsible for bring changes in your employees, but, its your TOP MANAGEMENT responsible for everything.

c) Your role is LIMITED and you can only educate your employees by taking support of TOP MANAGEMENT. You have develop a good rapport with all your employees including TOP MANAGEMENT.

d) If your TOP MANAGEMENT applies the 2nd OPTION and supports your good initiatives, then, i am sure it will take time for you to bring desired/necessary changes in your employees. Don't apply HARD AND FAST RULE and kindly try to be VERY FLEXIBLE. Dont every try to react and loose your control.

e)Try the BEST CONVINCING POLITE/POSITVE METHOD to make your employees understand the benefits of DISCIPLINED WORKCULTURE.

f) Educate your employees the DISADVANTAGES OF VIOLATING RULES/REGULATIONS/CODE OF CONDUCT etc.

e) Understand the HUMAN PSYCHOLOGY(BEHAVIOUR & ATTITUDE)

Last but not the least, If your management is supporting the workcultue practiced by your employees, then, your management is held responsible for everything..........I BLAME YOUR MANAGEMENT FOR NOT HAVING CONTROL ON YOUR EMPLOYEES NOR TEACHING THEM WORKPLACE ETHICS

If you have any queries, please free to write to me.

Good Luck

With profound regards

Ms.sandhya.patnaik;1527643 - Hello! Well, Let me tell u that u should not bother about other people, because you can not control or change other people. U can change other people's behaviour only by your own behaviour i.e. u behave in such a way that u elicit a favourable reaction, response or reply from the other person. So, the exercise is more introspective. A few tips are : Be more patient / tolerant / understand the other person's position (domestic / official) and at the same time pruning your own behaviour towards the other person, so as to elicit a more favourable response / reply.
In this connection, I recommend the following views of Ms. Sandhya, who attached an article, in these same columns, which are well suggested. Hope both of you realise the tips for yourselves, even.
Best of Luck

THE CASE FOR HIRING HAPPY PEOPLE

Adrian Furnham’s 10 reasons why happiness at work is a productivity booster

1. Happy people work better with others; they are a lot more fun to be around and consequently have better relations at work
2. Happy people are more creative; if your productivity depends on being able to come up with new ideas, you need to be happy at work. If people are in a good mood on a given day, they are more likely to have creative ideas that day.
3. Happy people fix problems instead of complaining about them; when you don’t like your job, every molehill looks like a mountain. It becomes difficult to fix any problem without complaining about it first. When you are happy at work and you run into a snafu – you just fix it.
4. Happy people have more energy. They are therefore more efficient as well.
5. Happy people are more optimistic; they have a more positive, optimistic outlook, and as research shows optimists are way more successful and productive.
6. Happy people are more motivated. Low motivation means low productivity, and the only sustainable, reliable way to be motivated at work is to be happy and like what you do.
7. Happy people get sick less often. Getting sick is a productivity killer and if you don’t like your job you are more prone to contract a long list of diseases. You‘re also more prone to workplace stress and burnout
8. Happy people learn faster; when you’re happy and relaxed, you’re much more open to learning new things at work and thereby increasing your productivity.
9. Happy people worry less about making mistakes and consequently make fewer mistakes; when you are happy at work the occasional mistake doesn’t bother you much. You pick yourself up, learn from it and move on. You also don’t mind admitting to others that you messed up - you simply take responsibility, apologies and fix it. This relaxed attitude means that fewer mistakes are made, and that you are more likely to learn from them.
10. Happy people take better decisions; unhappy people operate in a permanent crisis mode. They lose sight of the big picture and they’re more likely to make short-term, here- and-now choices. Conversely, happy people make better, more informed decisions and are better able to prioritize their work.

Would you mind deriving the FACTORS that makes people "HAPPY". Kindly consider as the most unhappy person in this world. How can i make myself happy and how i can retain the same forever. What are the factors that destroy's one happiness at workplace.
I am sure there should be something that drives us happy, but not crazy..
