Share departments objetives with your staff and them ask them how they can help you achieve them 



The employees are a point key to reach the aims of the company, facilitate the work and the mission of the company, it is important contracts suitable persons for specific areas, since.

The ethics and the labor behavior, they form a part of the rituals of a company; what is looked by this type of strategies is transmit the employee which are the business policies, which the company wants of them, since they must be organized to reach the personal and labor expectations.

what it does. 

Hold regular team revisa to ensure everyone is clear about what is expected of them


The bottom line is you have good communication with employees rune because in my opinion sounds heart for a business to reach success, as I mentioned before the human capital is more than important.

Several types exist of feedback, but those who mas stand out inside the companies might be: 
Feedback Personal is that one where it is recognized or not the labor realized by a person, this helps to the constant improvement of the aptitudes and attitudes of the collaborators, is a difficult task in the case that this feedback is negative, even this way it is necessary to make them know the persons in qu they are failing in order that you improve his performance inside the company. 

Feedback Organizacional in the same way as the personnel, it is an important prop for the constant improvement of the service or product that the organization offers, and ciontribuye when identify which are the methods that are not working and which are the strategies and steps that must think for the constant growth of the company.




Dont try to be somone you are not


In this point to my opinion it refers to innovating, believing in another way of doing the things and of not imitating what others do inside the company, if not to work under our own standards and to believe faithfully that the work that we realize is important and was leading to the company or our own business to the success. Of equal form in important expiring with the processes of the company and not to take the opposite one to the Superiors, but defending the point of view that is had by base and coherent arguments.

Acknowlege the expertise of your staff

  • Marriott has a prize to the so called employee " The Prize of the Spirit of Serving " that associates honors that have been indicated by the guests by specific praises. The employees receive certificates with golden medal in the top part and a new medal of gold he joins whenever a praise is received.

It is important to listen to the client and to look for an immediate solution it to help. Listening to them we learn of the mistakes, and demonstrate him cuan important they are for the company.

A la Carga "Gung HO"

It is a book that tells the philosophy based on three principles: The spirit squirrel, beaver style and the gift of the goose.
Gung Ho is a Chinese word that means working together, that was the motto Flyers Carlson break during World War II.


This technique is used to stimulate enthusiasm and performance within organizations; focused on increasing productivity, quality, customer service and quality of life for employees within it.

The main message of this story is that it teaches you how to be a leader through these three principles adopting the animal behaviors that animals are even being able to work together and move forward with a job that is not only necessary for their livelihood , but it is also important for their life cycle.

Coincidentally most people work on something they do not like, unlike Andy apparently enjoyed her work, which made with love, so I believe that every employee within a company should be motivated by different methods.

if it is true you can put into practice, is an example of dedication effort, which worked out successfully and achieving the company from certain bankruptcy, the inspiring example of Andy, increased performance and enthusiasm of employees and Penny.


The Spirit of the Squirrel 
has very clear what their functions within the group, the most important thing is to define what the functions we want to meet the employees within the organization, based on this conduct interviews and engagements followed, this it is ensured that happy employees will do the work because they want and what they like and be committed to the goal set for them and for the company.

Castor method:
It is known that for positive results of work performed by employees, it is necessary that they feel comfortable, proud and committed to their work within the company, so it is important that the organization has well-established goals and objectives and that these are shared with all employees. Respect the ideas, needs and dreams of each employee must be within the values of the organization.

The Gift of the Goose:
Committed to developing a labor of its employees must be able to promote teamwork and encourage business with awards (verbal, certificates, salary increases, among others) the performance and results that an employee for pro-business. And if that does not achieve the expected results encourage them to continue working, with the support of the leaders and the support of his teammates for them to reach their goals in consideration of their functions.
















Cases 1 and 2. unpromising. The first is a low price strategy characteristics and perceived value also low.
Second: positions of low prices and some buyers perceived value.

Hybrid strategies 
3. lower prices, but betting on the differentiation from its competitors.

Strategies to promote the added value perceived. 

4 Product differentiation featuring a relatively high price.
5 Provides a high value at a high price. differentiation and segmentation.

6 offers a high-price something of value perceived by the buyer, which to some extent can be accepted
7 is only feasible in terms of market failure by the offer.

8 consists of a very low perceived value and a slightly higher price.






This first step should be when we enter into different 

social fields completely new for us, can 

become a barrier difficult to part, that feeling of 

anguish, of nerves, every time we have to 

put us in front of an audience the possibility of 

make a poor impression makes us 

uneasy.  therefore is important use methods such as an 

ice-breaker is an activity designed to 

help people know each other, and usually includes the exchange of names and other 

information about personal history.

This dynamic aims to break the fear of participants in meetings or presentations, or in our  

case with our colleagues of classes and thus make the group more United and strengthen the  

work team.

Management Leadership 




A manager is that person who supervises and gives follow-up to the funciones that the employees realize and since they contribute to the aims of the company

Whereas a leader on having taken decisions  bears in mind to his environment and that the

person entrusted to realize this work was fulfilling with characteristics, aptitudes and 

functions of both. But both are in the habit of taking decisions from two points of view and 

different perspectives. 

Some of many differences that we can find are:
