This is a psychological proven
theory: the more the number of people watch/behold a certain situation, the
less each one feels responsible towards it >>> the responsibility DISSOLVE among them
-
A basic management rule: when a task assigned to a committee,
number of people, it is never done. Everyone just feel that the others will do
it and it is not his responsibility to do it
-
A basic guideline in emergency training: when you are
in trouble don't just yell "HELP" to everyone, but make eye contact
with one person, single him out and order him to help you …. He will feel that
he is the one responsible for aiding you and it is HIS –not anyone else's- job
When you want a task done:
1- Give it to one
persons (or many persons, with each one having only one partial, specific task
of it)
2-
Set a deadline
