The company, which develops, sells, and supports computers, was valued in 2019 at more than $36 billion and employs more than 150,000 workers worldwide. Check out the Dell career webpage that is devoted to flexible job opportunities and you?ll see the company?s pride in employees being able to choose ?the work style that best fulfills their needs on the job and in their personal lives.?Dell reports that its remote teams are as productive, if not more, versus in-person teams. The company uses team technology to connect with chats, content sharing, and video conference calls. Video is credited as extremely important in engaging team members, including executive teams. In fact, the company states that its remote team members are four times as likely to be engaged at work and two times as likely to want to stay at their current jobs.Slack in one program was employed to facilitate collaboration with a centralized space for teams to work. Adobe Connect allows the creation of information like training manuals and presentations in addition to conferences. Skype is a go-to video conferencing software for many who work from their laptops, as well. In short, the market offers many ways for teams to collaborate virtually and maintain the ability to self-manage. Furthermore, the programs allow for highly complex team projects that can be more productive remotely when sharing documents, and simulations and conducting real-time analysis.Dell uses an extremely high level of ongoing connectedness with coworkers, such as intra-company social media and chats. The ability to ?follow? and chat with team members allows for solving issues that arise infrequently and unexpectedly. Finding and gathering your team can even be easier with remote work than in person because everyone is connected.Due to Dell?s use of a remote workforce since 2009, the company estimates it has saved $12 million in fuel costs, not to mention the associated environmental benefits.The future gets more remote for Dell. The company now plans that by 2020, employee global participation in remote work options will increase to 50% of its workforce.9.3 Test your knowledge:(Questions)1. This type of team can be very effective remotely because the members are working in their normal jobs and only come together when there is an issue.2. What does Dell credit as being a critical factor in engagement in remote team meetings? ——————————————————————————- Case Analysis (Organizational Politics at Google)Google only wants ?civil? behavior at work. Talk about work at work, talk about politics elsewhere. The multinational technology company announced to its over 100,000 employees in August 2019 that nonwork topics were causing disruption. Specifically, political arguments have taken a large role in the company?s online forums.This is an interesting turn of events, given that the company has long been an example of a relaxed and creative culture. In the prior months, the company was accused of suppressing conservative political views in searches. A leaked video after the 2016 presidential election showed the displeasure of Google executives with the election results. Over the next months, the online internal platforms for employee discussion became increasingly argumentative and, in some cases, worse.Organizational politics are, of course, not the same as government politics. But this situation at Google could easily lead to organizational political behavior. Any strong expression of opinions by executives exerts influence on employees. At Google, the video of executives expressing negative opinions about the election immediately takes advantage of their power to influence subordinates. Those who are not of the same political opinions as the executives are now excluded from a circle of those who do agree. This can easily lead to those people either receding from involvement and hiding their views or taking an aggressive stance that further causes work problems.Excluding employees can often be unintended. But when you are pushed out of important discussions and decisions, especially by superiors, you are then on the ?outs.? This can lead to low performance and commitment, and even leaving the organization in more serious cases. Political behavior on the part of those who are in agreement with executives can then bond further, whether intentionally or not. Based on this, Google?s direction with their new policies about topics allowed in internal communication is, therefore, not as shocking as they might appear.1. Your boss asks you to attend a meeting to participate in a serious discussion of corporate policies that you disagree with. After the meeting, you are convinced and agree completely with the policies, showing you experienced what reaction to the meeting?s influence?2. People who share opinions with executives may try to use that to enter into more social circles and meet powerful people who also agree, expressing what type of political skill?
