The Responsibility Project

Introduction

As organizations continue to diversify, the opportunities for workplace problems intensify. Small business owners and managers typically face one or more of three potential levels of conflict -- employee, team or organization-wide issues. Often the underlying causes of these problems are the lack of open, flowing communications or using the wrong organizational structure. Many businesses compound problems by avoiding communicating a clear chain of command path.

Any project starts with gathering information, planning and implementation of those information on the project according to the requirements of a company. The first step of planning is the initiation of the plan, after initiation, the project has to be planned to a befitting aim.

There should be a back up plan in case of any failure during or after the implementation of the specific project plan because a failure to adequately plan highly influences the project's marketing and reduces the chances of successfully gaining its aims.

When employees feel as though they have choice and can make direct decisions, this does often lead to a greater feeling of self-worth.
