The Management Efficiency Unit

I establish been operative in the Public Registry for the last 8 years. The military position of the offices is preferably distant from my residence and sixteen separate colleagues that pass away in the aforesaid(prenominal) department have the same problem. Every morning we ar need to travel a one hour ferry and nearly 2 hours drive to arrive at work.The Management Efficiency Unit far-famed this issue and finally top management decide to take remedial action by requesting a transfer to a nonher department, the Treasury Section, which mitigates such location problem.Unfortunately the scheme designed by executive management was not kosherly planned. They also did not discuss this issue with operational managers who own far greater knowledge on the day to day footrace of the office. As a result the decision lacked practical issues and led to other problems, as will be further illustrated below.Everybody accepted the transfer and we were ultimately informed that our traini ng for the new job will take close to two or three months and will take place in the head office of the Finance Department, which is also distant. The new job was super technical and involved a lot of accountancy issues, which the majority of us were not cap adapted to comprehend that easily.The three months passed and we were still unable to work unsupervised from our tutors. The impracticality of the decision was highlighted from the fact that our principal in charge, who was also taking training was still incapable to work on his own later three months.When these issues started to crop up, crises management arose. A new assistant coach was assigned to this division, who once realized of the vast serious problems arising from such decision, he immediately denied this new role.Demotivation arose in our section and staff is constantly sound off about the problems we are facing. In addition no communication exists amidst us and executive management and we are alone with this n ew work, which we are not trained to do.The only reasonable solution that management was able to come up with is to extend the duration of the training to eight months. unless with this decision they have not yet solve the problem that the location of the office is far from home and are incurring additional cost to train us.If they planned carefully before deciding and discussed it with operational managers they would have definitely solved the problem more efficiently. It is imperative that when managing change proper communication and planning exist.ReferenceJohnson G. Scholes K. Whittington R. (2005). Exploring Corporate Strategy. Seventh Edition.
