MBA Gyan in the Valley......

Valley Crossing Exercise

Sorry all my fans that I make you wait for so many days.

So here is another management lesson which I earned under guidance of Prof. Mandi. In this exercise there is an important organizational lesson to be learnt. Organizations are meant to facilitate the impossible, unachievable.

The Problem ?

The problem is all about 3 people who want to cross a valley with the help of the pole. They have to put the pole on their respective shoulders then cross valley. you can take look by the picture below.

The simple it looks the difficult it is perform.
This activity can't be realized until you realize the value of " UNITED WE STAND , DIVIDED WE FALL"
So the key factor to perform this is of course The Team work and besides that the innovative thinking we should apply to get the work done as easily as possible and that is how the excellent management is possible.
I always focus on the term Excellence in every blog because this what that defines you and put you in a league which is different from the others. Its solely depend upon how you do your task and what efforts you put in to get it done .

What made this task so easy ?

i) Proper Communication 

There should be proper communication among the team members say Real time communication,

Every step should be synchronized so they can can easily communicate to each other when , how and what steps should be taken while crossing the valley. Also this would help them to be on the same platform of thoughts which is of great importance in the task.

ii) Trust

A team should trust on every individual of the team. No one is strong or weak , they all are equal.

If there is no trust among the team members then end of the team is not far.

iii) Team Work

"Teamwork is the ability to work as a group toward a common vision, even if that vision becomes extremely blurry."
