What are the two or three biggest challenges (i.e. the most difficult part) of managing the people you do? Can you think of any particularly difficult types of people or situations to manage?When asked about her biggest challenges as a manager, she responded that implementing change is not easy in older employees that are set in their ways. It is hard to lead when people are resisting. In her experience as a nurse manager, delegating responsibilities is another challenge she has been faced with getting everyone to buy in or making people to do it may be difficult but you have to take the bull by the horn and decide or take one step further in discipline. There was an obvious tone of resentment from some of her subordinates, which she had been able to tactically bring under control in the past. She said she had written up staff members in the past that were not willing to comply by the rule. She added, A manager has to take some steps to keep his or her job or else face the wrought of the management. She explained that sometimes when subordinates resist the delegated task even though it is within their job description, she would calmly approach them indicating her expectations in an assertive manner, and also provide them with clear and explicit work guidelines. Also it is a challenge when work is delegated and it is not done the way it should be done or in a timely manner.Trying to please everyone and still be fare e.g. scheduling, some may expect me to be lenient with them and grant their schedule request at the expense of others.

I was able to come up with a plan for monthly team schedule/ rotation. This led to reduced sick calls, which attracted incentives from upper management. We received discounted movie tickets and snacks were served to the staff at night.I also implemented preceptor and preceptee scheduling so as to make it easy for the new orientee to follow 1 person instead of changing preceptors everyday.Q3. Describe something that you have done as a manager that did not work, or caused problems, or seemed like a good idea at the time but was not ultimately successful.Nancy recounted her experience after hiring an employee based on a friend recommendation and not by merit. The newly hired went through orientation and all necessary training but she wasnt a perfect fit for the position. She wasnt a team player and her errors almost cost me my job and I eventually had to let her go. Hiring is an important aspect of any organization that cannot be taken lightly. Recruitment and job matching plays an important role in performance management. Therefore abilities should be assess properly during the selection process (Baldwin et al 2013).If you hire the wrong people for a position, it will come back to haunt you.Q4.
