Objectives of the Organization

Although the Real Estate is a Business for housing still it has a socio economic perspective. It is playing a vital role to develop our country. This Real Estate sector is a people oriented business. Although it is a capital intensive business, still lots of people are involved in the construction works. In order to finish a project lots of labors, engineers are employed and they are getting a reasonable salaries . With the passage of the price of the construction materials have been increased at a greater speed . As a result the customers are facing the problems of higher cost for a flat. Again there are some problems involved with the quality of materials used by the owners. Considering all the points The KPL is trying to achieve the following objectives:

Introductory Thoughts

Real estate is used for a number of purpose like to provide shelter, comfort, convenience, and privacy ,a place of work, recreational facilities and related services. In an estimate real represent more than 40% of the national wealth. Therefore, the manner in which the resources of this magnitude are used has an important effects on the well being  of our people, the success or failure of business firms and the general prosperity of the country.

The term real estate or apartment as commodity used has two meanings  –

1) It is a name given to the commodity “realty” which include not only land but also all human improvements placed on the land.

2) It is to the name given to the business engaged in by those persons who conducts commercial transactions in real estate.

The basic component of reality as a commodity is land. It means not only the surface of the earth but also the property rights and interest that attach to ownership of reality , including subsurface minerals . Thus the real estate means acquirement of land and building  which is called inherent right. The men who are the owner , user , maker, financier, or marketer  of the property have some rights to the property.

History and Development of Apartment Companies in Bangladesh

In Bangladesh apartment business is a recent phenomena , although such activities  were Initiated sometimes in 1964. Ispahani  group was the pioneer in this sector .  In 1970 there were only five registered firms in Bangladesh . From the early 1980s the business started to flourish and showed robust growth. By 1988, there were 42 developers in business. At present, more than 1500 companies are active in the real estate sector with 1081 of them registered with REHAB .

In the last four decades private developers have supplied more than 100000 units of apartments to the nation and will be supplying 25000 more units in the next three years . With 147.9 million people (Bangladesh Economic Review, 2011), Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. Land prices are high and permanent housing is rare—barely 2% in rural areas and 23% in urban centers. Estimates suggest a shortage of about 5 million houses in Bangladesh, with as many as 500,000 houses added annually in urban areas and 3.5 million added in rural regions (World Bank Document, 2010).

During the period from 1981 to 2000, the greater Dhaka population grew at an average rate of 5.5% from about 3.44 million to 10.0 million. During the same period the built up area increased from 104 sq. km (39% of the city area) to 150 sq. km. (55%). By the year 2015 the expected population of the city is forecasted to be as high as 15.7 million. It is expected that Dhaka will become one of the ten largest cities of the world by the year 2020 with a population as high as 20 million. To make provision for accommodation and comfortable living of this large population transformational development of Gazipur, Kaliakoir, Savar, Tongi, Narayanganj, Keraniganj and Purbachal will be required. Housing conditions of Dhaka City vary greatly between high and low-income groups as well as by area. The gap is obvious between luxurious high income apartments which exist in high-income areas such as Gulshan, Baridhara, Dhanmandi, Uttara areas and poorly constructed temporary housing (Jhupri) with extremely small floor space, very densely located on the lands prone to flood disasters. People from all socio-economic backgrounds in Dhaka face housing problem of one type or another. While the urban destitute need rehabilitation, the slum dwellers need slum upgrading. The low-income families are in need of low cost flats or plots and the middle and upper income families are complaining that the cost of a decent plot or a decent flat is going beyond their means.

Formation of REHAB and its contribution to our country

With the number of companies increasing gradually, various problems concerning the housing sector cropped up requiring early solution. At this stage it was necessary to form a trade association of the Real Estate developers to protect the overall interests of the sector. To strengthen the role of real estate sector Real Estate & Housing Association of Bangladesh (REHAB) was formed with only 11 members in 1991. The objective of REHAB was to promote formal private sector Real Estate Development inBangladesh.

REHAB is the only trade organization of Real Estate Developers with a current membership of 260 Developers. All major institutionalized Developers are members of this organization. REHAB is also the “A Class” member of the Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industry (FBCCI). In the recent years REHAB has played a very significant role in nation building through Real Estate Development by its members. The members of REHAB contribute a large amount of revenue to the Government exchequer in terms of Registration Cost, Income Tax and Utility Service Charges.

The main reasons for the development of real estate business in Dhaka city are:

i) Rapid increase in the population of the city.

ii) Scarcity of unoccupied lands in important parts of the city.

iii) Very high prices of land.

iv) Hazards involving purchase of lands.

v) Profit motives of the land owners.

vi) Increase of remittance inflows in that finance many purchases.

vii) Re-structuring of households to single family units.

viii) Standard of security and other services in apartments

Apartment Development Process by the Commercial Developers

The process of the apartment development:

1. Initial search for land , prior to purchase or co-sharing with the land owner.
2. Acquisition, possession and registration for land.
3. Signing agreement with the land owner in case of co-sharing arrangement.
4. Obtaining relevant planning and building permissions.
5. Initial planning and designing of the apartment.
6. Overall financial management and programming.
7. Obtaining a loan, if necessary, for part of expenditure.
8. Ordering and purchasing of building materials.
9. Filling of land above normal flood levels.
10. Provision and connection of basic infrastructure service.
11. Actual construction of dwelling with or without assistance.
12. Transfer of title to buyers of flats/apartment.

TOTAL VOLUME OF THE REAL ESTATE SECTOR

At present, more than 1500 companies are active in the real estate sector with 1081 of them registered with REHAB. In the last four decades private developers have supplied more than 100000 units of apartments to the nation and will be supplying 25000 more units in the next three years (Sheltech, 2011). To measure the total volume of the real estate sector, data from the operating entities of this sector is a must. Once again, due to the lack of adequate primary data the total volume of this sector could not be calculated directly and accurately. But, in the following table we can see the volumes of this sector from 2001-2002 to 2009-2010. These volumes are calculated based on the overall GDP of the country in those yearsand the corresponding GDP contribution of the sector.

Growth and volume of the Real estate, renting and business services sector

If we extrapolate the trend we find the volume of the sector is BDT 26575.74 crore in 2010-2011. It must be mentioned here that this is a crude measure based on the secondary data.

Major reasons for preferring particular area:

• More planned area (Uttara, Bashundhara, Dhanmondi, Gulshan)
• Ease of communication with office, school, college etc
• Personal choice
• Residing at that area for a long time and have relatives in that area
• Less expensive (Mirpur, Mohammadpur, Uttara )

The following table shows the price of per square feet apartments in the major areas of Dhaka city from 1990 to 2010

Average Price of Apartments (Taka/ Sq. Feet) from 1990 to 2010

• In the first decade of 21^st century, the percentage increase in per square feet price of apartments is very high, particularly in Baridhara, Dhanmondi, Gulshan, Banani, and Shamoli area.
• Compared to the price increase of the earlier decade, price rise is almost exponential in this decade.

LAND PRICE  

The following table shows the price of per katha land in the major areas of Dhaka city from 1990 to 2010

GDP CONTRIBUTION TREND ANALYSIS

The sector wise share of Real Estate, Renting and Business Service sector to the national GDP of the country is as follows:

Data Source: Statistical yearbook of Bangladesh, 2010

Share of Real Estate, renting and business services to the national GDP

COMPARISON WITH OVERALL GDP GROWTH

The following table shows the comparison between overall GDP growth and growth of Real estate, renting and business services.

Comparison between overall GDP growth and growth of Real estate, renting and business services

• Basically, the total volume of Real Estate, Renting and Business service sector increased every year, as seen from the last column, a positive growth every year.

• But, compared to overall GDP growth, this sector expanded in a slower rate. That is why in overall GDP the contribution of this sector has a downward trend.

Competitor Analysis

In forming business strategy, managers must consider the strategies of the firm’s competitors. While in highly fragmented commodity industries the moves of any single competitors may be less important,  in concentrated industries competitor analysis becomes a vital part of strategies planning. Competitor analysis has two primary activities.

1. Obtaining information about important competitors
2. And using the information to predict competitors behavior.

 The goal of competitor analysis is to understand-

1. How the industries complete with their competitors.
2. To know the information of the competitors strategies and planned actions.
3. To know the information how competitors might react to a firm’s actions
4. To know the information how to influence competitor behavior to the firm’s own advantage.

Casual knowledge about competitors usually is insufficient in competitor’s analysis. Rather, competitors should be analyzed systematically; using organized competitor’s intelligence-gathering to compile a wide array of information so that well informed strategy decision can be made.

The Krishibid Properties Limited has no such systematic analysis of it’s competitors. It is one of the limitations as real estate business.

Market Segmentation

The purpose for segmenting a market is to allow your marketing/sales program to focus on the subset of prospects that are “most likely” to purchase your offering. If done properly this will help to insure the highest return for your marketing / sales expenditures. Depending  On whether you are selling your offering to individual consumers or a business, there are definite differences in what you will consider when defining market segments. Then  you should establish what the need is and who is most likely to experience that need. Your segmentation will be determined by a match between the benefits offered by your offering and the need of the prospect . Some “need” categories for segmentation include.

Reduction on Expenses

Prospects might be business that are downsizing, business that have products in the mature stage of their life cycle or individuals with credit rating problems. Improved cash flow prospects might be business that have traditionally low profit margins, business that have traditionally   high inventory costs or individuals that live in expensive urban areas. Improved productivity prospects might be business that have traditionally  low profit margins , business that have recently experienced depressed earnings or individuals with large families .

Improved manufacturing quality & Improved services delivery

Prospects might be business with complex , multi-discipline manufacturing process. Prospects might be service business in highly competitive markets, product business requiring considerable post-sale support or individuals in remote or rural areas.

Involvement with the social trends

Prospects might be business concerned with environmental protection, employees security etc or individuals who believe in say  ‘no’ to drugs, anti-crime etc. Specific-relating to product/ service characteristics . Prospects might be business or individuals interested in safety, security, economy, comfort, speed, quality, durability etc.

Continuous learning about market

Market-driven firms stand out in their ability to continuously anticipate market opportunities and responded before their competitors. The market learning process in these firms are distinguished by : open minded inquiry based on the belief that all decisions are made from the market back, wide spread information distribution that ensures the relevant facts are available when needed, mutually informed mental models that guide interpretation and ensure that everyone pays attention  to the essence and potential of the information  and accessible memory of what has been learned . However , mystery of all the steps in the learning process is rare. Most firms suffer disabilities at one or more stages. Overcoming these learning disabilities and enhancing market learning competency is an important management challenges.

Designing of Marketing Strategy

Under the heading of Designing  Marketing Strategy the following points are discussed

a) Customer targeting Strategy

Customer targeting strategy is a technical work which includes the following :

1) Market Intelligence

It corresponds to the efforts conducted by the firm to decipher competitors standing and to try to anticipate their future moves . Important issues are product introductions, marketing approaches, changes in segmentation practices, price policies, product liabilities , new distribution channel , and improves services approaches.

 2) Defining  and Analyzing Markets

These decision are concerned with generating marketing intelligence for the firm. It starts with an appropriate market segmentation, and a finer definition of product market segments so as to capture the different preferences and needs of customers . In each of those segments, analysis of the behavior of consumers and organizational buyers is conducted , as well as of the overall strategic competitive situation.

3) Product Strategy

It refers to decision on how to position a business unit product offering including specific products , breadth of product lines, mix, and building – to serve it’s target markets , establishing strategic objectives for products-market share , profit contribution  , and  selecting a branding a strategy.

4) Distribution Strategy

Decision involves selection of a distribution  channel –whether direct or via retailers , wholesalers, agents, design and  management of the physical distribution system- including customer service , demand forecasting , inventory control, materials handling , order processing , parts  and services support , warehousing and storage, procurement, packing , returned goods handling , and traffic  and transportation and push vs pull mode of operation of the distribution and sales system.

5) Price Strategy

Te central factors that affects price strategy are product competitive positioning product mix , brand strategy, and product quality and features. The distribution strategy also influences how the price decision will be affected by the advertising and sales force strategy.

Krishibid Properties Ltd sale flat. After finish designing from a repotted architecture, they select price strategy . this price strategy based on some decision. Such as cost of land development, cost of raw materials, payment of land owner etc, after this they set up a price. This price strategy is two types. One is at a time and another is by installment. If client want to pay the money  at a time , then they get some discount fr5om the fixed price. On the other way is installment process.

6 ) Promotion and Advertising Strategies

An integrated promotion  strategy  has four components – advertising, presentation and promotion of goods , ideas, services by an identified sponsor. Personal selling – oral  presentation to one or more prospective purchasers, sales promotion – includes trade shows , contests, samples, point-of-purchase displays, and coupons, and publicity- exhibition in mass media not paid for directly by sponsor.

 7) Sales Strategy

This encompasses all  of the key decisions that should support a coherent sales strategy including account management , cross- selling and up-selling , territory management  lead closure , opportunity management, sales force incentives, sales team composition , and customer engagement process.

8) Service Strategy

The extend to which service activities become a highest priority to the firm is a critical elements of service strategy. Critical decisions are the scope of the service offering , the degree of the technical support provided , the amount of customization of service activities. The management of account inquiries, service dispatch, problem resolution and service tracking.

(b) Positioning Strategy

After the organization has selected its target market, the next stage is to decide how it wants to position itself within that chosen segment . Positioning refers ‘how organizations want their consumers to see their product. What message about the product or service is the company trying to put across.

 C) Developing and Positioning Strategy

Developing a positioning strategy depends much on how competitors position themselves. Do organization want to develop strategy and position themselves close to their competitors so consumers can make a direct comparison when they purchase? Or does the organization want to develop a  strategy  which positions themselves away from their competitors? Offering a benefit which is superior depends much on the marketing mix strategy the organization adopts. The pricing strategy must reflect the benefit offered and the promotion strategy must communicate this benefit. Ultimately positioning is about how you want consumers to perceive your products and services and what strategies you would adopt to reach this perceptual goal.

d) Marketing Relationship Strategy

A major international transport operation was facing increasing competition in all its markets. It was a market leader  in every respect. It had a strong brand , a good reputation for customer serviced and charged  a premium price. But its profitability was under threat from the increasingly price based competition.

Although it had managed its customers using a customer database for several years and had developed a relationship marketing approach. It had been sometime since it seriously evaluated this strategy . it decided to review the strategy.

The first step was to analyze its customer base from a new perspective. It created a data warehouse which pulled together for the first time data on purchases and service use, promotion responses and customer service. Analysis of this data showed the company had taken a wrong turning. There were two main shocks.

First, the average customer reminded an intense user for much shorter periods than the company had thought. This meant that the customer base was turning over fast, with just a few customers staying for a long times. The relationship marketing approach was falling down because it was too slow.

The company took too long to recognize the most valuable customers so they received higher quality and their best treatment just as they were thinking of leaving .At the critical period when new customers were forming their brands preferences they were treated poorly.

Secondly, the company correlated value, promotional response and complaints poorly. There were many low-use customers who often responded to promotions for incentives and complained frequently.

These findings shocked managers , particularly as several  new competitors had successfully targeted  new customers. This lead the company to redefine its relationship offer to new customers. Using data mining techniques, it developed a profile of future high value customers. It applied the profile to new customers , enabling it to single them out for improved management earlier in their relationship.

e) Planning for New Product

Product planning is a vitally important  activity. The product planning process results in a strategic roadmap that directly translates the company’s strategy to the set of products, services, and technologies that drive your company’s vision and business result. As  a product leader in your company :

Can you create a product strategy that almost guarantees you meet your business objectives?

Do you understand the factors that create opportunity for your organization?

Can you effectively  define and communicate a vision for your product line and successfully defined it?

Product strategy and planning is not an individual activity, but individuals with these skills quickly become the leader of any product development focused organization. This 2-days rigorous , interactive workshop teaches the participants to apply tools and techniques to create successfully product strategies and plans. Topics covered include :

• The elements of high –growth product plans.
• Factors that determined new product success.
• How to create winning product roadmaps.
• Establishing goals to drive planning success.
• The drivers that create new product opportunities.
• Specific tools to identify high-potential products.
• Effective techniques for validating product concept.
• Building the business case for new products.
• Elements of effective product requirement.

Development of Marketing Program

Under the heading of Marketing program development the following points are discussed.

a) Brand Management Strategy

Brand  marketers these days are telling the Tale of two economies. Each of them is real , but marketers are behaving differently  depending on which economy they think their company exits in.

One world is the market  place of Home Depot and Lowe’s , both of which are punching each other with abandon these days go to get a leg up in a continually growing home-improvement market . FedEx and UPS  also have pulled out the stops on new branding campaigns, this year and last year and last year , respectively, as both try to increase their share of a delivery business that is changing rapidly.

b) Distribution Strategy

For product focused companies , establishing the most appropriate distribution strategies is a major key to success, defined as maximizing sales and profits .Unfortunately, many of these companies often fail to establish or maintain the most effective distribution strategies. Problems that we have identified :

1. Unwillingness to establishing different distribution channels for different products.
2. Fear of utilizing multiple channels, especially including direct or semi direct sales, due to concerns about erosion of distributor loyalty or inter-channel cannibalization.
3. Failure to periodically re-visit and update distribution strategies.
4. Lack of creativity and resistance to chance.

c) Pricing Strategy

One of the four major elements of the marketing mix is price. Pricing is an important strategies issue because it is related to product positioning. Furthermore , pricing g affects other marketing mix elements such as product features , channel decision , and promotion.

Marketing Strategy and the Marketing Mix

Before the product is developed , the marketing strategy is formulated , including target market selection and product positioning . There usually is a tradeoff between product quality and price, so price is an important variable in positioning . Because of inherent tradeoffs between marketing mix elements, pricing will depend on other product, distribution and other decisions.

Calculate Costs

If the firm has decided to launch the product, there likely is at least a basic understanding of the costs involved, otherwise, there might be no profit to be made. The unit cost of the product sets the lower limit of what the firm might charge, and determines the profit margin at higher prices.

The total unit cost of a producing a product is composed of the variable cost of producing each additional unit and fixed coast that are incurred regardless of the quantity produced .The pricing policy should consider both types of costs .

Environmental Factors

Pricing must take in to account the competitive and legal environment in which the company operates . From a competitive standpoint, the firm must consider the implications of its pricing on the pricing decisions of competitors. For example, setting the price too low may risk a price war that may not be in the best interest of either side. Setting the price too high may attract a large number of compititors who want to share in the profits.

From a legal standpoint, a firm is not free to price its products at any level it chooses. For example, there may be price controls that prohibit pricing a  product too high. Pricing is too low may be considered predatory pricing or ”dumping” in the case of international trade. Offering a different price for different consumers may violate laws against price discrimination . Finally, collusion with competitors to fix prices at an agreed level is illegal in many countries.

Promotional Strategy

Promotion is a form of corporate communication that uses various methods to reach a targeted audience with a certain message in order to achieve specific organizational objectives, must engage in some form of promotion. Such efforts may range from multinational firms spending large sums on securing high-profile celebrities to serve as corporate spokespersons to the owner of a one-person enterprise passing out business cards at a local business person’s meeting.

Like most marketing decision, an effective promotional strategy requires the marketer understand how promotion fits with other pieces of  the marketing puzzle(e.g., product, distribution, pricing, target markets). Consequently, promotion decision should be made with an appreciation for how it affects other areas of the company. For instance, running a major advertising campaign for a new product  without first assuring there will be enough inventory to meet potential demand generated by the advertising would certainly not go over well with the company’s production department .Thus, marketers should not work in a vacuum when making promotion decisions. Rather , the overall success of a promotional strategy requires input from others in impacted functional areas.

In addition to coordinating general promotion decisions with other business areas, individual promotions must also work together. Under the concept of integrated Marketing Communication marketers attempt to develop a unified promotional strategy involving the coordination of many different types of promotional techniques. The key idea for the marketer who employs several promotional options to reach objectives for the product is to employ a consistent message across all options. For instance, sales people will discuss the same benefits of a product as mentioned in television advertisement. In this way no matter how customers are exposed to a marketer’s promotional efforts they all receive the same information.

Implementing and Managing Marketing Strategy

 Under the heading of implementing and managing marketing strategy the following points are discussed

a) Organizational Design

More specifically, Organization Design is a formal , guided process for integrating the people, information for technology of an organization. It is used to match the form of the organization as closely as possible to the purpose the organization seeks to achieve. Through the design process , organization act to improve the probability that the collective efforts of members will be successful.

Typically, design is approached as an  internal change under the guidance of an external facilitator . Managers and members work together to define the needs of the organization then create systems to meet  those needs most effectively. The facilitator assures that a systematic process is followed and encourages creative thinking.

Organization design begins with the creation of a strategy – a set of decision guidelines by which members  will choose appropriate actions. The strategy is delivered from clear, concise  statements of purpose, and vision, and from the organization’s basic philosophy. Strategy unifies the intent of the organization  and focuses members toward actions designed to accomplish desired outcomes. The strategy encourages actions that support the purpose and discourages those that do not.

Creating a strategy is a planning , not organizing. To organize we must  connect people with each other in meaningful and purposeful way. Further, we must connect people with the information and technology necessary for them to be successful. Organization structure defines the formal relationships among people and specifies both their roles and their responsibilities . Administrative systems govern the organizational through guidelines , procedures and policies. Information and technology define the process through which members achieve outcomes. Each element must support each of the others and together they must support the organization’s purpose.

b) Marketing strategy Implementation and Control

Organization structure is the formal and informal framework within which people work to achieve organizational objectives. Designing and implementing a suitable organization structure is necessary  for the implementation of marketing strategy. Aspects like internal and external organizations, vertical structure, horizontal relationships, speed of responses, managing the operating environment etc, are the major  consideration  to be made in  the design of a marketing organization. The options that are available for designing the marketing organization can be grouped into traditional structures and few forms. Traditional structures include functional, product, market, and matrix organization. A functionally organized structure is organized on the basis of various functions like marketing, production, research and development and finance. In product organization , structure is determined by the type and number of products that the organization has. Market organization is organized in to geographical units that report to a central corporate headquarters. A combination or matrix organization is a combination of the functional and products firms of organization.

The matrix structure helps in achieving the advantages of each of these organizational structures. Types of matrix structures include functional matrix, project matrix, anmd balanced matrix structure.

In selecting an organizational design, the factors that are to be the considered include the market and environmental situation , organizational characteristics, and the marketing strategy generally adopted by the organization. Implementation of the marketing strategies effected to a great extent by how the marketing activities are organized  . There are basically four kinds of organizing concepts typically used in marketing –bureaucratic, transactional, corporate and rational. The environmental condition also influences the structure adopted by the organization. Organizations operating in global environments have to design the structure keeping in mind the market conditions in which they operate. Global organization restructuring involves steps like identifying the need for restructuring , integration of organizational functions , and  identifying the most effective structure .Multinational  organizations go in for various structures like domestic organization, volume expansion, resource acquisition, and international division.

Planning and Decision making process

Planning is the tool, which helps  in operating the strategy of an organization. This, in turn, results in effective realization of the organizational goals. Goals define the roadmap towards realization of an organization’s vision and mission. Goal setting and planning complement each other. The decision making process is involved at different levels in the planning process. It ensures the smooth implementation of the plan. The paper discuss the function of decision making and the planning process in the organization. It examines the relevance of organizational goals.

The Krishibid Properties Limited has a decision making body and planning cell. All the new proposed activities of the project are approved in the decision making body.After the decision is approved matters are placed in the planning cell for execution purpose.

Organizing Technique, Motivating process, Stuffing Pattern and

Practiced by the world organizing technique, we can mean an arrangement of doing some thing in a planned way. Thus the organizing technique of the Krishibid Properties Limited. There are various sections of the firm the top level administrative tried their level best to maintain the harmony among the sections.

There are lots of different ways to organize a project. This is one of the system. It works very fine. If you want to start a project you must have to make a plan to  start and to finish the project successfully. The work should be divided into various phases.

The Krishibid Properties Ltd, undertook the plans of various projects and there various phases of work of each projects. They are complementing these phases very efficiently accordingly  to their plan they before starting  the project.

The implantation of a project, need concerted efforts of people involved in the project. The project work is done in several phases. At each phases lots of people are involved to execute it. But at each stage all the peoples should perform their activities in an organized way.

Motivation Process

Motivation is to inspire people to work, individually or in groups in the ways such as to produce best results. It is the willingness to exert high levels of efforts towards organizational goals, conditioned by the efforts and ability to satisfy some individual need.

Motivating is getting somebody to do something because they want to do it. It was one assumed that motivation had to be injected from outside, but it is now understood  that everyone is motivated by several different forces.

Motivation is  a general term applied to the entire class of drives, desires, needs, wishes and similar forces. To say the managers motivated their  subordinates  is to say that they  do those things which they hope  will satisfy these drives and  desires and induce the subordinates to act in a desired manner.

To motivate others is the most important of  management tasks. It comprises the abilities to communicate , to set an example, to challenge, to encourage, to obtain feedback, to involve, to delegate, to develop and train, to inform, to brief, and to provide a just reward.

Controlling Methods

It’s hard to leave the office at a reasonable time of day when your work place culture centers on long hours. But the cost of not leaving work is high: a half built life and career burnout. Of course, if you never work long hours, you will never appear committed enough to get to the top ranks. So your job is to work enough hours to look committed but not so many hours that you risk your personal life and your ability to succeed over the long haul.

People cannot work full speed until they die. Pace yourself so you don’t burn out before you reach your potential. But don’t blame your long hours on your boss, your CEO, or your underlings. Someone who does not make a conscious, organized effort to take responsibility for the number of hours they work can be thrown off course by anyone. But the person who systematically follows the steps below will not be thrown off course, even by a workaholic boss in a workaholic industry.

Concentrate on quality of work over quality. The person who builds a career on doing the most work commits to living on a treadmill. The work will never be done, and you will become known among your co-workers as someone who never turns down an assignment. Read , dumping ground. Quality is what matters. People don’t lose a job for not working unpaid overtime, they lose a job for not performing well at the most important times, and a resume is not a list of hours worked. It is a list of big accomplishment.

Know the goals of your job. You need to know the equivalent of a home run in your job. Get a list of goals from your boss, and understand how they fit into the big picture. Judge if your work is high quality by what people need from you and how they measures success. Be sure to get goals that are quality oriented and not hours oriented.

Knowing your own boundaries, “wanting to work fewer works” is too vague a goal because you won’t know which hours to protect. Try getting home by 7 p.m., not working weekends, or leaving for few hours in the middle of the day to lift weights. There are concrete goals for cutting back hours.

Creating something important outside of work, if we don’t create a life of work that is joyful and engaging then you won’t feel a huge need to leave work. And if you don’t project a passion for life outside of work then no will think twice about asking you to live at work. So get some passion in your personal life. The only way to discover new aspects of you is to give them new opportunity to come out

Being brave, brave people can say  no when someone is pushing hard, and brave people can go home when other people are working late, the bravery comes from trusting yourself to find the most important work and to do it better than anyone else. But sometimes , the bravest thing to do is leave. Some industries , for example coding video games ,or being a low level  analyst at an investment bank, are so entrenched in the idea that workers have no lives that you will find yourself battling constantly to get respect for your personal life. In some cases, you are better of changing industries, or least changing companies.
