Unity in diversity seems to reflect in every office and its employees. An office comprises of variety of workers from different parts of the country with various kind of personalities. All of them together create a team and execute many essential events.
It’s a great challenge to work with employees with different habits and behaviors. Below mentioned are some of the various kinds of employees found in every organization, reports TOI
1. The Believer: This kind of person is always dedicated and committed to work. They love their job. They are the best examples of motivated employees and give their best to the job assigned. They a have strong sense of loyalty that binds them to the organization.
Leaders with this quality should not be overlooked. They should be encouraged and nourished. They have the capability of inspiring co-workers and making them work efficiently, without any effort.
2.The Soldier: The most dependable employees are considered the soldiers of the office. You can fully rely on them without any headache. They are the symbol for loyalty and stick to their jobs for a long time.
Soldiers may have stability as one of the advantages but it may be hard to manage them when change is required—they lack leadership skills. Soldiers should be encouraged to take initiatives.
3. The Idea Champion: Idea champion’s brain is always buzzing with new ideas and thoughts. They help in initializing and innovating new ideas and projects. They have a wide range of thinking and often come up with new suggestions.
On contrary, the idea champions lack focus. With new ideas coming to mind everyday, they are unable to concentrate on the existing project. They have a tendency to jump from one to another seeking for innovation during which they often miss the finer details.
4.The Climber: A person with a thirst to rise and reach the top of the organization fast may be designated as the Climber. Climbers can be seen trying to make their work visible to all and keeping connections with the high authority people who matter. They are eager to be recognized.
Climbers have a tendency to switch jobs very often in order to climb up the organizational ladder. Sometimes these people bring a sense of bitterness among fellow colleagues but one can extract good essence from them.
5. The Doormat: Seeking sympathy and avoiding work, these people are easily dominated and pushed around. They are often new employees and are considered as very simple and lacking knowledge of the concerned job. Doormats should speak up against the injustice towards them and face the troubles.
6. The Troublemaker: Troublemakers are not only upset with their job but spread negative vibes even among the co-workers. The symptoms of a non-satisfied troublemaker are being late to office, being absent without prior notice, pending jobs, low energetic and commenting upon the company and the team.
Presence of a troublemaker can be very unhealthy for an organization. According to experts, the main cause of their dislike towards the job should be found as early as possible and should be solved.
7.The Materialist: A materialist works only for the salary. They have no interest in the improvement of either the team or the company. They lack motivation but continue to work solely for daily bread and butter. They reach a certain high level of the organization and have no goals to achieve. They do the least possible work and stay in the office accurately during the office bound timings.
8. Mr. OCD: As we all know, OCD stands for obsessive compulsive disorder. In relevance to employees, this gives a negative impression about the perfectionists. Perfectionists can sometimes be real troublemakers. They are so much dedicated to work that they focus on too much of details and make a fuss.
These kinds of employees are so efficient that sometimes people take advantage of them knowing that the perfectionist will take care of all the mess. Perfectionists should be inspired more and more in order to keep their spirit fresh and up going.
