Working with Practical Manager

Working with Practical Manager

There is no single definitive way to benefit most from the Practical Manager. You can adapt it to your working practices. Everyone will use it a little bit differently. 
There are, however, a few basic soft rules and guidelines to follow so that you and other members in your organisation will have the best experience together. Achieving results is a “team matter” that requires people to work together and maintain good relationships. To ensure the satisfaction of all users, it is important that everyone complies with and agrees to these guidelines and basic rules. We call these prerequisites a »driving license« for the world of Practical Manager, and we suggest observing the following. 

 
1. Mind fellow members. 
Members are real people who provide their real names and work in real organisations. As much as Practical Manager can help you bring out the best from people, it can deteriorate relationships with others if you misuse the tool by:
  1. Giving double signals,  
  2. Praising online with Practical Manager and reprimanding or criticising in face-to-face relationships or meetings,
  3. Making insincere, false or flattering compliments.
Remember, whatever you do online is done by you, not by somebody else.
2. Be nice. 
Be considerate and inoffensive to others. When making comments or giving strokes, remain realistic and objective. 

3. Be professional. 
Do not get too personal. Emotions are part of our lives. We believe that positive emotions drive results and the culture; therefore, be positive in what you do through Practical Manager and in line with personal relationships. Keep negative thoughts realistic and with positive intention. Remember, the person is OK. 

4. Respect other members' rights and respect your national and international laws.
Members' right is to feel OK and welcome. Only by staying within the law can you maintain Practical Manager service to run and contribute to your own success as well as everybody else's.
Start using the Practical Manager service with these basic soft guidelines in your mind. Here is a short, simple guide to the essentials of the service's technical guidelines to help you get started.
