After yet another political U-turn with his exit from the INDIA Bloc of opposition parties, Chief Minister of Bihar Nitish Kumar has again returned to the National Democratic Alliance led by the Bharatiya Janata Party. How does such inconsistency translate within the workplace and affect the overall functioning of a team? Two career coaches explain the impact of such management and work styles, and how to tackle it in a corporate set-up.
In order to deal with employees, peers or managers who may be inconsistent across stations of a project, for instance, in the overall goal of a task and the inability to lead a team stably or approaches to daily tasks, Afsheen Dattoobhai, instructor to life coaches and founder of Outsight Growth and Development, suggests that the company must break down the vision and scopes of work. “Dealing with inconsistency is a common problem. What we can look at first is the ultimate vision for one’s career or a project, for all members of the team. Brainstorming together, we define professional goals in alignment with the project or the company’s requirements.”
