Dear Team,
We have OS as Manager - TL - Execution team. The organization has some old staff who joined long ago and have been with the company through thick and thin. Now, the company is growing well and has deployed new managers to run the organization more efficiently. Some employees who were experts in their work previously now have reporting managers to whom they must report their daily work. This set of employees is not willing to send daily reports to managers. Currently, managers don't have an issue with this, but the management is not happy with this kind of work culture, which may also affect the performance of the rest of the teams.
Management has asked HR to take action regarding employees who do not want to report to their managers and has instructed to give warnings to such staff who still have an ego about reporting to their manager.
Kindly advise on how to deal with such employees or what actions HR can take, or provide advice to management on the matter.
It would be greatly appreciated if any experts could share their contact information to discuss this matter further or if more elaboration is required on the above.
Thanks,
Sharayu

It seems that you have already prejudged the issue to the extent that you feel the senior personnel in your organization have ego issues. Instead of coming to a conclusion, why not have an open meeting with those whom you think have such issues, along with the management, and try to explain the rationale behind appointing new employees as Reporting Managers? Much of the bad blood can be stopped if one refrains from acting on assumptions rather than real issues, even if there is one.
Ego is not the issue, but only an inflated ego is. Try to put yourself in their shoes and understand their concerns, which is one of the aspects of HR in any company, and work towards a solution, even if it is not easy.
