Addressing the Right Organizational Issues Will Bring Development to the Company

Before you start any reorganization in your company, you have to know all the organizational issues that your company has and address these issues. It is the only way by which you will make any effective change in your company.

Every company has their own organization issues and these issues are unique. So the solutions are can be modified depending on the company's needs and wants. Usually, practitioners observe the company close hand and then they draw traditional and current theories which are applicable to the issues at hand. These theories can be applied to the company's social structure which is based on the tasks, specialization, hierarchy, power and endurance of the current organization of the company.

Usually, the organizational issues evolve around these factors: size, span of control, technology, tasks, environment, business strategy that is employed by the company and so many others. To be honest, there are so many issues that surround each company that it is crucial to identify which ones affect the company and the people who work on it the most.

Those who handle these organizational issues are experts on assessment, organizational structure, operations, transitions and change. It comes with years of practice and studying. They know that they do not go straight to technology. They address the issues first. Before they can address the issues, they need to identify them first. Hiring people who can do this are worth it. They will bring about the right kind of change and they will help bring back the company to the right path.

How to Separate Work and Home

A busy businessman finds it hard to separate work from home. Leaving the stresses of the job is easier said than done. But learning to separate work from home is actually the key to a happier home life and quality time with family. The blur of work and home can easily make the boundaries disappear over time.

Here are a couple of tips to leave work at work.

1. Physically relieve yourself the stress of work at work. After long hours of working, try a simple breathing exercise. Picture yourself in a solitary place. Listen to your breathing. Steady your mind by steadying your body.

2. Stretch. This helps relieve tension in mind and body. Stretch your arms and legs. Visualize the negative energy leaving your body.

3. Use pen and paper. Write notes on what you have to do tomorrow. Put them in a place where you know you look first thing in the morning. Your desk will do well. Then visualize your home and the people in the house.

4. Plan the transition. Mentally list your routine from work to home. Then use it as a signal to leave one behind.

5. Never over do the unloading process to your spouse. This creates tension in the marriage or relationship. Try to set a limit on how many minutes you will talk about your worries so that your partner will not feel like you are bulldozing her emotions. She, too, experiences stress on a daily basis.

6. Take a breather. Do not worry too much about tomorrow or its problems. It will come.

These are just a few things you can do. Feel free to improvise.

Workplace Burnout: A few solutions before you say something you might regret

This has always been an area of struggle for me, but I have found some ways to alleviate the burn out from one day to the next especially when I was working in some pretty stressful atmospheres with phones ringing, bosses yelling, and crazy people staring at you with nothing to say that made any sense.

One of the things I did was remove myself from the situation that was causing me stress. I would politely ask my boss, "Am I free to go at this time? Need to take a breather..." My bosses usually understood, because not to long after I got back they disappeared for awhile too.

The second thing I did was take a book with me to work, so that I could escape thoughts of work during my breaks.

Although I didn't always take my break like I should have, I tried very hard to use them. Legally they are yours so why not take them? Those breaks helped me often especially when I wanted to really express how I felt about an event or something someone said to me.

The last thing I did was visit a few places I had never been to before during lunch, on off days or after work. Sometimes a change of scenery will make you forget about some of those things that put you in a bad mood in the first place.
