Mistakes of a manager, or how to ruin a work team. Depression (Insufficient or excessive control over events as a cause of depression
As already noted, control- one of the main elements of implementing management decisions. Control can be:
■ according to the degree of regularity - episodic or systematic;
■ by volume - detailed or general;
■ in depth - proactive (aimed at preventing possible mistakes), ascertaining (aimed at finding and punishing those responsible) or analytical (aimed at finding the causes of already committed mistakes).
If the manager has an attitude that employees must be forced to work, then he prefers frequent, detailed and ascertaining control. The idea that employees need to create favorable conditions for successful work requires systematic, general control, a combination of proactive and analytical levels.
Psychologists identify the following control errors:
1. Control "on the occasion of". Control should not be limited to incidents. Control should anticipate deviations in work, and not become a consequence of such deviations.
2. "Total control. The manager's control over everything makes employees dependent and gives rise to dependent attitudes.
3. Hidden control. Such control is ethically incorrect and simply humiliating for any leader.
4. Proforma control. Formal control is bad, if only because those who do not control are not interested in the achievements of their employees.
5. Control as a manifestation of general mistrust. Suspicion, as a rule, indicates a lack of self-confidence. If a leader does not have a healthy sense of self-worth, he feels threatened by others. Their unmistakable work signals to him that there are people vying for his chair. You have to keep them “on a short leash”, then you can still hold out...
6. Failure to inform the employee about the results of control. Negative control results are fruitless if they do not become the subject of discussion.
7. "Superficial" control. An example is monitoring an employee’s presence at the workplace instead of monitoring the results of his work.
8. Search for a scapegoat. A bad manager is one who associates control of the result with the search for the “extreme”. Thus, the manager admits that he failed to control the process.
9. Not using the special option for intensive monitoring: probationary period for a new employee. Naturally, almost every control ends with performance evaluation, praise or punishment.
3.5. Performance evaluation, praise and punishment
Performance evaluation management decisions should take into account:
■ current needs of the employee;
■ individual characteristics of the employee;
■ his physical and emotional state;
■ sequence of assessments in accordance with the employee’s line of behavior;
■ proportionality of grades and achievements, efforts;
■ features of the situation in which the assessment takes place.
The main errors in performance assessments include the following:
1. Gallo effect, when other characteristics are evaluated in light of one trait or characteristic of a person or his actions. For example, a person’s diligence is assessed as having creative potential.
2. The effect of central tendency, consisting in the desire of managers for averagely good or averagely bad assessments. At the same time, subordinates note that the leader “cuts everyone with the same brush.”
3. Contrast effect, the essence of which is that average performance against the backdrop of very poor performance looks and is assessed as brilliant.
4. Influence of emotional state- the manager’s mood, emotional reaction to completely different events can have a significant impact on the assessment of performance, both positively and negatively.
5. The influence of stereotypes when the manager, for example, is sure that this employee will never be able to work
administration only because everyone has such a strong opinion, but it has never been tested in practice, and the employee has no obvious contraindications to management activities.
Praise is one of the most effective motivating factors ensuring a high level of performance. However, if certain requirements are not met, the effectiveness of this incentive is reduced. To such requirements, from the point of view of E.G. Molla, include:
■ praise should not be abstract (for example, “you are a good worker”), but specific, indicating which ones deserve encouragement and why;
■ praise should be timely;
■ it is not necessary to praise at every stage of solving the problem; it is enough to do it at the end so as not to devalue the incentive;
■ praise should correspond to everyone's personal contribution;
■ praise should take into account the individual psychological characteristics of the employee;
■ You must not turn praise into a means of manipulating people and forget about the possible emergence of feelings of envy among others.
Punishment It is most effective when it:
■ sufficiently motivated and not too time-bound;
■ follows specific actions rather than behavior in general;
■ takes into account the time and individual characteristics of the person being punished;
■ carries an information load;
■ carried out in the context of educational influence. Nevertheless, as noted by E.G. Mall, many American and European companies today refuse to use various sanctions and punishments as a method of maintaining labor discipline.
Thus, the success of the management process is largely determined by the knowledge and application of psychological laws, principles and patterns. It should be emphasized that they are the key, core, fundamental in the activities of a leader, and this creates the need for their more detailed study in the next chapter.

. - ed.
I would like to see that brilliant professor who will come to entrance tests and will find a talented applicant among those who cannot perform simple standard tasks. All these are fairy tales about a white bull. Are the assignments imperfect? Let's make them better.
Let's take the bull by the horns and call it main problem. This is not enough control. A GOOD USE IS A HONEST USE.
I would venture to say that an unpleasant situation has developed - the upper classes cannot, the lower classes do not want to.
I'll start from the bottom. In the first years of the Unified State Examination, there was a clear position among educators. We need to help the children of teachers, we need to help the children of leaders. It was such an interesting fight. In the first year of the mass Unified State Exam there were only 7 in the package different options in 15 works. The impression was created that it was possible to organize mass assistance to the right people. And in the glorious city on the Don, 4 special centers for conducting the Unified State Exam are being organized. And there was a puncture - there were many more options that year - there were not enough specialists. They only helped the absolutely necessary people.
By the way, at the regional conference after the Unified State Exam 2004, one of the speakers analyzed the implementation of tasks A and B in rural areas.
It was proven that in one of the small rural areas, where all students were placed at one point for the Unified State Examination, interesting events took place.
Those tasks, even complex ones, to which a specialist could immediately give the correct answer, were completed significantly higher than in all other rural areas. But simple tasks that require time to calculate were performed worst in all rural areas. The heads of education in this area were given a dressing down. But, apparently, the lesson was not useful. By the way, it is now impossible to obtain such materials for research.
Now, if you'll excuse me, let's move on to the top. It seems that in words everyone is in favor of an honest Unified State Examination.
But variant leaks happen every year. What, you can’t restore order?
We are told that there are thousands and thousands of different options, and the leakage of one option is not significant. I beg to differ. Let's take the Unified State Examination in mathematics. After completing the simpler tasks and completing their answers and solutions in section C, there remains approximately an hour and a half to complete 3-4 complex tasks. If there is no information leakage, then for the student these tasks are unsolved problems. How many unsolved problems can be solved in an hour and a half?
I argue that either a genius or a schemer can get a 100 in math.
Both of them need to be taken by the hand and specifically worked with them. Next note. Is it necessary to conduct an early Unified State Examination in April? We are told that this is necessary for athletes and some others, for example, for the children of diplomats who need to go abroad (this is not a joke - I heard it myself at a regional conference).
But really, these early exams, if they are really necessary, cannot be taken under special control? There are some shenanigans going on there.
In 2009, they sent me scanned versions of the early Unified State Exam, where not only the numbers were written, but also notes to which specialist they were sent for decision. This year the numbers have already been cut, but the fraud remains.
By the way, it is still possible to identify the schemers. There would be a desire.
Self-esteem in children and adolescents. Book for parents by Øyestad Gyru
Insufficient control
Insufficient control
Older children, like younger children, need to see: “Adults are looking out for me.” Insufficient supervision can damage self-esteem.
Sixteen-year-old Thorbjörn and two of his friends went to the dacha without adults for the first time. It was expected that he would return home on Sunday around eight o'clock in the evening. But the bus did not follow the schedule, and by the time Thorbjörn reached his stop, located a ten-minute walk from the house, it was already almost twelve at night. The mobile phone was dead, the friends stayed at the dacha for another day, so the teenager was unable to warn his parents about his delay. He was afraid that everyone at home was very worried, and he almost ran, so that his bag hit his back. Thorbjorn wanted to save his parents from tedious waiting and unnecessary worry. He was happy to return home and the upcoming meeting with mom and dad. “They must have prepared something tasty,” he thought as he ran.
At midnight, Thorbjörn stood in the corridor, expecting his parents to rush towards him, start hugging him and asking if he was okay. But the living room was dark, and not a sound could be heard in the whole house. Thorbjörn realized with a shock that his parents and younger brother had already gone to bed. No one was waiting for him, no one was worried. Thorbjörn went to bed feeling confused and alone.
The next day, at breakfast, his parents asked him what time he got home and how he liked the trip. Not a word was said about concerns about his late return. Thorbjörn also said nothing about the stress he was under. He was ashamed of his expectations, of the fact that he assumed that his parents would worry about him, greet him with dinner and surround him with care.
The parents, of course, were happy that their son returned home safely. They felt somewhat proud that they had gone to bed without waiting for him. In doing so, they demonstrated how much they trusted him. Thorbjörn's parents had long believed that their son was old enough to be responsible for himself.
What's going on in this family? Parents are more concerned about the project of becoming than the teenager himself. They are not sensitive enough to his need for safety and treat him as an adult who is fully responsible for himself. Thorbjörn is left ashamed of his own expectations of being welcomed as a found child. This will be bad for his self-esteem.
It can be difficult to deal with worried and nervous parents, but a complete lack of concern is even worse: both warmth and demandingness are somewhat eroded. Because of what happened, Thorbjörn thinks his parents don't care. He, of course, knows that they love him, but a sucking feeling of shame tells him that now he occupies a different place in the life of mom and dad than before. Perhaps they are happily waiting for him to leave home? This thought had never occurred to him before.
If Thorbjörn's parents knew what their son thought and felt about his return home, they would have expressed their disagreement. They love their son and wish him well. But their mistake is that they expect independence when Thorbjorn is not yet ready for it. They stop monitoring too early and show less concern for the boy, as if exposing him outside the circle of safety.
