Brother – Sister Running the Management? Oh no!!
Truth be told, a family-run business can be a good start or a long-time Career plan if you wish to be associated with the organisation because you owe your allegiance to them. Loyalty to any organisation should always be respected and valued, which I am sure most organisations around the world prioritise in order to retain their employees.
Sometimes, a family-run business has its flip side too. And in all cases, the ‘Sufferer’ is the employee stuck between the family members and the reporting structure. Let us elaborate this with a scenario:
Let us say, you are a shared resource and are hired to report to both the ‘Brother’ & the ‘Sister’ who manage 2 different entities of the same family-run Organisation. And both have their differences and one is the Founder Father’s darling and other is the dotting Mother’s sweetheart. Whatever the family dynamics maybe, the EGO unfortunately clashes only on Work Grounds. A fierce battle of POWER but the one innocent soul caught between them is the Employee who is a shared resource.
So, on a religious holiday, it is a day off for the rest of the employees, and you are looking forward to a peaceful day with your family to relax, rejuvenate & rejoice! There is where your happy story ends, because the Brother Boss calls you and says that you should attend this Agency meeting which is crucial (Trust me, it has never been as crucial as NASA launching a Rocket). You agree because you know to only say YES.
You ensure to finish the meeting because you are promised that post that, you are free to take off and enjoy the rest of the day, of whatever is left. Here comes the Torture No. 2: The Sister Boss calls you (In fact, her assistant calls you), and informs you that there is an important meeting in the office, which actually is on the other end of the city, and that it is crucial for the meeting to have your presence because an outsider – a senior consultant is coming in to meet the team and that person is only available on a holiday. So, you agree and make a travel that is 1 hour long, and while you do so, you start getting sick because of some sort of food poisoning through a glass of juice that you had in the previous meeting.
You make it to the meeting just a few minutes early, and trying to find a restroom, and your junior calls you saying the meeting has begun. You sit through the 3-hour irrelevant meeting with unnecessary drag and unimportant discussion even while you faint. And not once does this Sister Boss ask if you are sick as you look sick!
Both the meetings could have happened the next day or when you felt better. But, the Bro-Sis duo wanted to assert their power and had no one else to show it on, while you became the victim.
