What do you do if your mechanics are not aligned with common goals and objectives?

As a mechanic, you know how important it is to work efficiently and effectively with your team. You need to have clear and consistent communication, coordination, and collaboration to deliver quality service and customer satisfaction. But what do you do if your mechanics are not aligned with common goals and objectives? How do you resolve conflicts, motivate performance, and foster trust among your staff? Here are some tips to help you manage your mechanics team and achieve your desired outcomes.

1 Assess the situation

The first step is to identify the root causes of the misalignment. Is it due to a lack of clarity, communication, or feedback? Is it due to conflicting priorities, expectations, or values? Is it due to personality differences, power struggles, or cultural barriers? By asking these questions, you can understand the perspectives and needs of your mechanics and find out where the gaps and issues are. You can also use tools such as SWOT analysis, SMART goals, and KPIs to evaluate the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats of your team, as well as to set specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound objectives and indicators.

2 Address the issues

The next step is to address the issues and resolve the conflicts. You need to have open and honest conversations with your mechanics and listen to their feedback, concerns, and suggestions. You need to acknowledge the problems and take responsibility for your role in them. You need to express your expectations and goals clearly and respectfully, and ask for their input and agreement. You need to provide constructive criticism and praise, and offer support and guidance. You need to avoid blaming, judging, or accusing, and focus on finding solutions and compromises.

3 Align the actions

The final step is to align the actions and behaviors of your mechanics with the common goals and objectives. You need to monitor and measure their performance and progress, and provide regular and timely feedback. You need to reward and recognize their achievements and contributions, and celebrate their successes. You need to encourage and empower them to take ownership and initiative, and to learn and grow. You need to foster a culture of trust, respect, and collaboration, and create a positive and supportive work environment.

By following these steps, you can improve the alignment of your mechanics with the common goals and objectives, and enhance the productivity, quality, and morale of your team. You can also increase your customer loyalty, reputation, and profitability. Remember, alignment is not a one-time event, but a continuous process that requires constant communication, feedback, and adjustment.

Primeiro passo é fazer a análise de consciência se realmente não estou entregando ou se está faltando algum treinamento que não consigo ir além. Outro ponto é buscar um feedbacks para se redirecionar e centralizar naquilo que realmente importa a entrega de resultados .
