Indoctrination is extremely common. Moreover, the range of techniques and tricks that are used to manipulate employees, is quite wide. From the individual elements of psychological treatment before the introduction of the comprehensive system of impact on the individual employee. But if a small fraction of such ways, with a clear conscience refers to the art of management, with their massive use otherwise than as a destructive impact on the individual employee, it cannot be called.
So, for example, if you normally guide indifferent, how and with whom to spend his spare time employee, in a totalitarian company's situation is different. Family relationships, friends, your own Hobbies cease to be a private matter of the employee that weekends and holidays will conduct corporate events. He got up late to stay late at work to visit paid by the company or their own personal growth training and experience from all this heavenly pleasure.
This is how most MLM companies, some of the "non-profit" organizations and training companies, whose main task - involving the maximum number of people into your business.
However, such methods may be inherent in any business. This depends on the head, and sometimes even from the owner of the business of his personality, value system, management style. But most of it is inherent in trading companies or sales, in which there is little stability from the point of view of revenue employees. So often to retain "sellers" companies create a unique corporate culture with the practice of motivational systems.
Who new?
The impact on the psyche may start already at the initial stage of Dating. "At the dawn of my career at the interview the Director of the company, many asked me about how I treat long-term overseas travel. Or what I think about improving their professional skills on expensive training, am I ready to do strategic planning, to participate in the development of the motivation system and the like. My imagination immediately drew a rosy picture of. Here I am on the boat listening to the reasoning HR guru, then we, together with the Directors of the holding company discussed global problems of development of the company. It took effort to tell yourself "stop". There is nothing like it could not be assumed for a specialist in this position and this company. They needed a man who would spend 15-20 interviews a day and perform repetitive work that does not require high skills," said Michael Sandstones, HR-Manager.
And, admittedly, the approach, nothing promising to captivate a person's dreams of a rosy future, bearing fruit. This particularly affects those who are not confident in yourself, depend on external evaluation, feels lonely, unrecognized, has an inadequate level of claims that does not match any abilities or capabilities. People like, however, and those who for a long time is under stress due to traumatic events, seek and find leaders who create their own company-sect.
It all starts with a phase of the employee's employment in the company. At the stage of selection of the potential employee, the employer looks at the system of values, decision-making style, handling, personal characteristics of candidates. The company can obviously be made by those people who have not satisfied certain needs in the social assessment, the need to belong to a particular group. Such people are easier to manage, allowing them to belong to the working team, a group, to communicate with the leader, who becomes their Manager.
The neophyte here is celebrated as a holiday. Its lead around the office, familiar with all, smile, Pat on the shoulder, shake hands. Talk about how he was lucky that he got in such great company, wonderful staff where all friendly, where all help each other. Strangely enough, but even a very pragmatic people getting in this atmosphere, can do a lot from a sense of duty or gratitude for the "good attitude". And only after some time, when a beginner goes euphoria and it starts a little more critical about what is happening, remind him that he "owe everything to the company and the people around him.
Honest chencha
Every job includes communicating. And for many, it plays a very important role as a regulator of relations. The mechanisms of this regulation are quite simple, and our reaction is brought to perfection by education and previous experience. Kids in the sandbox you know: the one who gave the candy is a friend and if the blade on the head means, the enemy. And build a model of relations with these two we will be on the basis of this knowledge. "In one company, where employees were taken only after a thorough psychological examination and testing on the "lie detector", each newcomer picked up mentor. Which significantly fined for all the mistakes the new employee. The results were startling. Newcomers quickly joined in and struggled not to let his teacher," said specialist HR. In this case, the dismissal procedure in this company was incredibly difficult psychologically. In a few days who wished to leave the employee's expected strong pressure, it "worked" all with whom he came in direct contact, called a traitor, appealed to the conscience, was accused of ingratitude and t.d.
But not all employees are dissatisfied with this state of Affairs. Some of them are characterized by conformism, it is feel bad in the office, which is the focus of their life and work in the company is its only meaning. When this material interest recedes into the background, because it is compensated by the sense of community, security, stability, status, and even the idea of serving "eternal" values.
Therefore, employees are collectivists have become dependent on the opinions of colleagues and management. And the rejection of significant environment can become such a person a serious psychological trauma. This philosophy was used by the famous Japanese Corporation, developing the principle of lifelong employment. And in this case to talk about the hard manipulation is not necessary. Because this system is more like a marriage of convenience - guaranteed financial stability and care in exchange for loyalty.
Not by bread alone
Another extreme is the company, not utrujdayut themselves to the elaboration of its own mission and corporate values. In the company, free from corporate ideology, come solely for salary or, less frequently, to learn. Here everything is honest and clear: do the amount of work, you get money.
But such a purely rational approach does not affect the emotions, and therefore, makes employees too light on the rise, ready at any moment to go to where the salary is higher. Because in such groups there is no team, there is no relationship that would unite people. Like it or not, but at work, each of us spends most of the time. And since man is a social creature, it is very important relationships with others, the opportunity to feel part of the whole, for example, well-coordinated, open to people organization. Also the person needs to have a common goal with their colleagues, to rejoice joint achievements to count on the support of the employer. You must follow a healthy balance of rational and ideological approaches to team building and effective corporate culture.
Signs of totalitarianism
All crazy head. To criticize the boss is the most terrible of all corporate sins.
- Visiting corporate events is the responsibility of each employee.
- Mandatory training seminars and personal growth trainings own values replace the values of the company. Social values come to the fore.
- The staff is formed reverent attitude to the attributes and corporate style of the company.
The main control method is a method of "carrot and stick". Behavior that is appropriate for the company, intensively supported. Unapproved - be collective condemnation.
- The main method of motivation is a myth. Beginners are taken as an example the fate of the founders of companies that promise a brilliant career with the words "they did it, then you will succeed".
- Long working hours - hard normal. Such employers are very important to the staff spent all their time at work, including weekends.
