조직 구성원의 4가지 부류
(롬 브래프먼이 쓴 '사람의 마음을 흔드는 선택의 비밀(원제 Sway)'이라는 책에 있는 내용을 정리해 본다.) 어떤 조직이든 구성원들은 하나같이 네가지 역할 중 하나를 수행한다. 먼저 '주도자(initiator)'의 역할이다. 주도자는 항상 아이디어가 넘치고 일을 벌이기 좋아하며 뭔가 새롭게 추진하기를 선호하는 스타일의 사람이다. 이런 유형의 사람과 같이 살면 그가 꾸미는 새로운 계획이나 아이디어가 무엇이든 함께 흥분하지 않을 수 없다. 주도자는 항상 새로운 아이디어를 생각해 낸다. 그들이 반드시 파티의 분위기를 살리는 핵심 인물이라는 법은 없지만 애초에 파티 자체를 열자고 제안하는 사람들임은 분명하다. 두번째 주도자와 반대인 '차단자(Blocker)'가 있다. 주도자가 어떤 새로운 아이디어를 떠올리든 차단자는 그에 대한 문제점을 꼬집기 바쁘다. 주도자가 어디로 놀러 가자 라고 외치면 차단자는 안돼 거긴 너무 비싸 라고 대꾸 하는 식이다. 또 어떤 사업을 해보자 라고 주도자가 말하면 차단자는 1년 안에 망할껄 하고 찬물을 끼얹는다. 차단자와 같이 있으면 무슨일이든 주저하기 마련이고, 차단자를 심술쟁이 같은 사람으로 여기기 쉽다. 하지만 차단자는 조직내 균형을 유지하는데 중요한 역할을 한다. 조직의 의사결정이 어느 한방향으로 흐르지 않도록 견제하는 긍정적인 면이 있기 때문이다. 주도자와 차단자는 항상 티격태격하기 쉬운데, 이때 한쪽 편을 들어주는 '지지자(Supporter)'가 개입한다. 의사결정을 내려야 할 경우 지지자는 틀림없이 주도자나 차단자 중 어느 한편에 선다. 그리고 네번째 역할인 '관찰자(Observer)'는 상당히 중립적인 태도를 유지하면서 상황에 대해 단순히 논평만 하는 성향이 있다. 어디로 가냐에 대해 의견이 분분한것 같은데 라고 말하는 식이다. 나는 어떤 부류일까? 주도자는 확실히 아닌것 같고.
상식과 문제 지적에 대한 짧은 생각
A Wonderful Friday Night Concert
I went to a special concert last Friday. It named '1,000 won concert for music and love'. The singer was an amateur musician. But I think he is as a good singer and player as a professional musician. Actually he is my co-worker and sitting next by me.
It was a wonderful night for me. It was more worthy than any other big star's concert. I never forget last Friday night through my life. I think he is very talent guy. I always envy him because he can play a piano and sing a song very well. I'm trying to play a piano but I'm too old to practice. I'm trying to sing a song properly but I don't have a good ability for singing. Maybe if I had rich sense of music, I would join his concert.
I love music so much. I always enjoy listen many kinds of music. But unfortunately I'm poor at playing and singing. Anyway I hope I'll have another chance to listen your music in near future. And also I hope he'll have big success in his life.
Happy New Year to my Folks
Hi,everyone!
I'm so happy to hear of you.
Happy new year!
It's kind of late greeting though.
Recently I'm seriously thinking about my future, I mean, my next job.
What kind of job is the best fit for me?
Which company give me more money willingly?
Last December I took the Competence Test for Translation.
Of course I failed because of no-preparation, even I applied the third 'General' grade.
I was so disappointed with myself but I'll try to again this year.
What you're doing these days you guy?
Nothing special? Oh, boy...
If you have any tiny things to notify, please let us know.
Have a good rest of week.
Recently I lost two freinds
Recently I lost two friends, one is woman and other is man.
They departed their way, leaving me alone. She is four years younger than me. But she understood me very well and agreed with what I was saying in many cases. She and me spent lots of time to talk how to get along with kids and how to solve complicates with others. A couple of years ago maybe I was a fool who believed that I had anything she needs.
And other is a man, who is ten more years younger than me. He graduated in Chemical Engineering from Yonsei University. It was same to me. So we could share some common interests. We played Starcraft several times in PC-Bang after work. We talked about MLB, music and PC-games. Definitely it'll be good memories of my life in this company.
I know I'll miss them for a while. But as times go by, they'll disappear from my mind. I let many people go away at the same way until now. That's why the life goes around.
The Blue Friday in October
The Blue Friday in October
These days I'm looking a chance to change my job or company for my better life. A few month ago, I called Herold (Hun-Jae Jung) who lives in Seattle. I was asking several questions about living in abroad, especially in United States. He kindly answered and advised many things. Unfortunately there were some obstacles for leaving Korea and living in there. So, I decided to think not to move to abroad temporarily. However going to somewhere for the better life is still in my mind.
Anyway I wish your happiness and you have enjoyable time in Canada. I'm looking forward to hearing from you as soon as you arrive.
Good-bye.
