Esprit de corps

Principle: ESPIRIT DE CORPS

'ESPIRIT DE CORPS' here means team spirit and team work. This principle emphasizes on team work. 'UNITY IS STRENGTH' is the essence of this principle. Fayol suggested that there should be a team spirit in the organisation and all the employees must consider themselves as member of the organisation.

The organisation should be considered as a team and all the employees as its member. When the employees are considered as member, it develops a feeling of belongingness among them and thus each of them contributes to the achievement of the organisational goal.This sense of togetherness helps the employees to perform with greater efficiency and positive attitude towards the work.

This principle is based on two theories - “Unity is strength” and “Unity of staff is the foundation of success in any organisation”. Thus, this principle states that both the workers and management should work together to accomplish the objectives. The reason behind this principle is that, team contribution is always better then individual contribution.

This principle is very helpful in the organisation as well as in our daily life because this brings a sense of belongingness and association wherever human beings are involved.

Positive impacts of this principle:

Ø Achievement of group goals.

Ø Development of team spirit.

Ø High morale of employees.

Ø      Cooperation and coordination in the organisation.

Consequences of violation of this principle:

Ø      Non-achievement of the organisational objectives.

Ø      Conflicting environment in the organisation.

Ø      Lacks maximum participation from employees.

Initiative

‘Initiative’ means to start, to begin or to instruct in a project. Here, in this principle fayol suggested that each employee should be given an opportunity to take some initiative in framing the functional plan as well as in determining the steps to be taken at each level for proper execution of the plan.

Management must welcome the employees for taking initiatives in forwarding valuable suggestions before the plans are set up for them. When the plans are set up in consultation with the employees they will feel as if it is their own plan and they have to complete it, which will stimulate them to work whole heartedly. This will reduce wastage, absenteeism and maintain a cordial relation between employees and management.

This principle helps the management to know more ways of executing the predetermined plan as the employees give various suggestions. When the employees are involved in such a way in the management they feel satisfied and take each and every necessary step to accomplish the plan. This will make the working environment more interesting, more cooperative and more effective.

Positive impacts of this principle:

Ø Timely achievement of objectives when they are set in consultation with employees.

Ø Develops sense of belongingness in employees.

Ø Ensure maximum participation of employees.

Consequences of violation of this principle:

Ø Employees will feel that the plans and goals are not for their benefit and thus will not work with full potential.

Ø Lacks maximum participation from employees.

Ø   Conflict between the management and employees.

STABILITY TO TENURE OF PERSONNEL

'STABILITY' means no frequent change, termination and transfer etc. It means that, in an organisation whenever an employee is appointed for a job, he/she shouldn't be removed from that position frequently. The management of the organisation should ensure that there must be stability in the job and frequent changes and shuffling of position should be avoided.

When one feels secure at his job, he/she contributes maximum of his capability towards the organisational objectives. Stability also helps the employee to know each and every aspect of the job with the passage of time which consequently helps in performing the job with greater efficiency and minimum wastage. It creates a sense of belonging-ness towards the job and the organisation.

An organisation following the principle of stability achieves its objectives effectively and efficiently with the maximum contribution from their employees. The employees of such organisation always feel satisfied and thus are the productive factor for the organisation. But if this principle is violated i.e. if the employees are frequently transferred from one position to another or employee turnover, they will feel dissatisfied and will not perform with their full potential leading to non-achievement of the organisational objectives or under utilisation of resources as well as wastage.

Positive impacts of this principle:

• Develops sense of belonging-ness towards the organisation.
• Improves the efficiency level of employees.
• Minimises the wastage of resources.
• Employees satisfaction.
• Better accountability.
• Saves time.

Consequences of violation of this principle:

• Non-achievement of the organisational objectives
• Lack of employees participation.
• Wastage of resources and time.
• Dissatisfaction
• Adds to cost.

STABILITY TO TENURE OF PERSONNEL

EQUALITY

“EQUALITY” is the condition or quality of being equal. It means the applicability of same rules and regulations for all employees in the organization irrespective of their religion, sex, caste, colour, creed, language, nationality, grade, position etc. This principle is based on the basic thought that “all employees of the organization are equal”. This principle states that each and every employee in the organization should be treated with equality and in a just and fair manner. There should not be any discrimination on any ground with any employee of the organization. The Executive Officer must be fair and unbiased while dealing with his subordinates.

This equal treatment will motivate the employees to give their whole hearted and maximum contribution towards the achievement of the organizational objective. When the officers are unbiased in their dealing with the employees, the employees will get satisfied and will contribute to their fullest capacity. This will also ensure loyalty and devotion of employees towards the organization, and will enhance the employee-management relationship.

“The Principle of Equality” does not mean that all employees of the organization are equal and must be treated and paid equal salary. It only means equal rules and regulations for every employee without any discrimination.

Positive impacts of this principle:

Ø  Employees feel satisfied.

Ø  Ensures just and fair treatment to all.

Ø  Motivate employees.

Ø  Ensures loyalty of employees towards organization.

Ø  Ensures cordial relationship among employees and management.

                                                                             

Consequences of violation of this principle:

Ø  Dissatisfaction among employees.

Ø  Delay in the achievement of organizational objective.

Ø  Lack of respect towards superiors and work.

Ø  Lack of team spirit.

Ø  Hinders employee-management relationship
