Good for you! Be true to yourself. Who are these people? They come in and tell you how the previous management ( I loved my managers up until this last one) ran the company into the ground and this is the new deal. His Philosophy: It was HEAR ME, Fear me, MICRO MICRO and MICRO and shove this big pharma, whipping boy, judgemental attitiude upon us and it' like.....I thought....."I am so done with you". Didn't take me long to figure this out. We are NOT big Pharma, we will NEVER be big pharma, and we are NOT paid to play in the big pharma market, which I might say is about on the average of an $80,000 a year in salary with a car in addition. PERIOD. I take it you are no longer with PDI? Such a shame for PDI to lose good people who enjoy their jobs, are good at it, and have it totally derailed by some self absorbed bully micro manager. I think that these new manager actually quantified their performance by their "bullying tactics" to their superiors. Hey, I gave them a poor performance ride along, and have told them they better check in with me. Heck, we only make 20-30k. Why are we held to the standards of Big pharma???
Moving market share? Pay us like we are big pharma and we will perform, but chill on the manangement. Huge professional turn off and turn over is costly for a company. Just my 2 cents. Prob isn't worth much, but I lived it. Gas is at on the average $4.00 a gallon. Who wants to pay to work for PDI?
A message to PDI, you want good workers, want to retain employees you have trained, and had for years???? motivate your workers, and workers to get the job done that want? Here is a clue. Hire managers that appreciate their workers. Train managers that we are not big pharma, but mostly women who have children and need and want a flex schedule. Appreciate your workers and show appreciation to each person on their team. . Have your managers show their appreciation to their worker in their district.
Have your managers take time to get to know their employees, personally. Your sales people are your eyes and ears out there, NOT the managers. Bullying and discipline is a form of management. These new management people think that being puffy, prickly and strict, and they report that to you that they are justfied in doing their job. WRONG!!! They are not.
One manager I respect is Stephanie L. All of your new managers should be molded with her style. Great balance, motivation and professional!!!
