How To Manage "Imperial Relatives"

On the world manager's website the first two days saw a topic of discussion: how to manage the "royal family"?

There are many different kinds of discussions involved, but they are all in the mood. Because they have been in private enterprises, they have met some so-called "Royal relatives". They also have some dealings with the so-called "Royal relatives", so spend some time talking about their views!

In China's private enterprises, many enterprises are bosses and relatives or family members when they start a business. When the enterprise develops to a certain scale, with the increasing number of professional managers joining the company, many managers will inevitably encounter the so-called "imperial relatives" in enterprises. This is a natural and ordinary thing.

In enterprises, the so-called "Royal relatives" you may encounter are your own immediate superiors. They may also be colleagues in other departments, or they may be their own subordinates.

The key point of this article is how to manage those "imperial relatives" who are their subordinates. For other "imperial relatives", they will not be discussed in this article. However, I believe that this article provides some ideas on how to manage the "royal family" and how to deal with other types of "Huang Qinguo Qi".

So how do we manage the "royal family"?

As a manager, "strike iron needs to be hard!" it is not right, but it is not right. Although it is not right, managers must first make demands on themselves. They must familiarize themselves with their own business scope, and must be proficient. If managers are not familiar with their duties, they will not be able to provide any guidance or constructive advice if they are not familiar with their duties. They can not help or promote the growth of their subordinates. They are unable to effectively manage the so-called "royal family". Therefore, as managers, they should fully understand and familiarize themselves with their business scope, and have certain personality training as the basis for management.

As managers, subordinates should be "virtuous" and "competent".

And only "serve" can not last long, to "moral service" and "service" and use can guarantee the true obedient of subordinates!

　　其次，管理者不能預設前提，不能戴上有色眼鏡，想當然地認為所謂的“皇親國戚”不好管!甚至根本不能管!我認為，把企業的員工貼上“皇親國戚”的標簽在一定程度上對管理的有效開展是一種誤導!很多所謂的“皇親國戚”自己也許根本就沒有觀注自己身份的特殊性，他們也不過是把自己當做是企業的普通員工而矣!但由于一些管理者對自己的管理才能和管理水平或領導能力的不自信!從而把這些與老板具有一定親屬關系的人看作一個特殊的群體而加以區別對待!這樣做的結果是首先在心理上就有了一種“前怕狼后怕虎”的感受!作為一個優秀的管理者，至少首先在戰略思維上對所謂的“皇親國戚”不應該有這樣的心理反應!要把所謂的“皇親國戚”當做是普通的員工沒有二樣!當然在戰術運作上還是要重視。

This is what Chairman Mao has said: "we should despise all enemies in strategy, and all enemies in tactics."

Of course, we can not treat the so-called "Royal relatives" as enemies.

From the situation of "Royal relatives", the so-called "imperial relatives" can also do things, but also has poor ability to do things well, and even dig corners of enterprises such as "blood sucking worms" and so on.

As managers, different types of "Royal relatives" should have different strategies or ways to manage them.

No matter what type of "Royal relatives", we should first treat them as ordinary employees, define their job responsibilities and scope of work, as well as the corresponding work standards and work objectives, and establish quantitative assessment criteria to evaluate and assess their work ability and performance, and evaluate their performance by objective assessment results.

In this way, any management measures you have to take should be supported accordingly.

For the "royal family" who "can do things and be willing to do things", we must adopt the strategy of "alliance" and unite with them, and communicate with them regularly to win their understanding of your work. If necessary, they are indispensable support for your work or overcoming difficulties.

And this type of "imperial relatives", because of their special identity and close relationship with the interests of enterprises, they will be more concerned about the development of enterprises. They hope that enterprises can develop better. For this type of "royal family," if possible, they can often wear high hat to them, emphasize their strong performance of their work performance on other employees of the enterprise, and allow them to put forward "high standards" and "strict requirements" for their work.

For "Royal relatives" who can do things but do not have strong will, give appropriate pressure to stimulate or encourage them to turn into "Royal relatives" who can do things and are willing to do things.

Then we can take the "alliance" strategy.

For the "royal family" who lack ability but want to do things, they can adjust them to suitable jobs according to their abilities.

For those who occupy the key position but refuse to make reasonable adjustments to their jobs, they should try to "marginalized" their work and keep them away from the core work.

For the adjustment of the "royal family", we should arrange for them to do something in their power to enable them to do so that they can also exert their abilities.

Otherwise, if they have enough food to eat and do nothing, they may go out of their wits. A reasonable strategy is to fill their working hours so that they do not have time to do boring work. This type of "royal family" can provide them with corresponding help if they have the potential and willingness to improve their abilities. If you can help them effectively improve their working abilities, you will certainly be able to closely unite them around you.

　　對于那種不能做事，還要挖企業墻角的如“吸血蟲”之類的“皇親國戚”，要采用“清除”策略，因為這種類型的“皇親國戚”是不可能或者是非常難被你所感化和教化的!只有清除出去才能純潔你的隊伍!“吸血蟲”之類的“皇親國戚”對你的團隊，對企業的危害極大，絕不能放任姑息，絕不能長期留在自己的隊伍里，否則最后老板要請走的可能就是你了!對于這種類型“皇親國戚”要敢于進行斗爭!當然要斗爭你就得有斗爭的藝術和策略，不能蠻干!在對付這種類型的“皇親國戚”前，你不能一上來就和他對立!你自己先要在工作上展露自己的能力，取得關鍵人物和重要人物對你工作的支持，在企業內部站穩腳步，再培養和鞏固自己的“同盟”力量。

It is necessary to establish corresponding management systems and mechanisms to stop them from exploiting loopholes in their work to facilitate their personal gain, and to restrain them from the system and process first, so that they do not let them interrupt you every day.

When the time is ripe, cut the Gordian knot quickly and take advantage of the strength to work together with other forces. One shot is fatal and can not give the opponent any chance to fight back or turn over.

Because this type of "royal family" usually has great activity energy.

If you can't kill a single shot, you'd better not play it well, otherwise you will probably hurt yourself by opposing your opponent.

If you face several such "Royal relatives" at the same time, it is really your misfortune! You have to take the strategy of "divide and pform" and "destroy them all", so that they can not have the opportunity to join hands to deal with you.

You can't manipulate office politics in private enterprises, but you can't understand the strategy and art of office politics.

No matter what measures you take for the so-called "Royal relatives", you must communicate well with the boss, and give sufficient facts and evidence to get the boss's full understanding and support. If the boss can not understand and support, he can tolerate such a situation. You'd better not do anything.

Otherwise, before you make a decision, the boss may make a decision contrary to you later.

The highest state of struggle is not to argue, but to contend.

You can only do your job well. The boss will take the initiative to clear up the obstacles for you at the critical moment! But it's very difficult! Ha ha!
