Good article ! I like the model but I have some points to discuss.

For starters, that’s a very detailed and well-organized process to use in order to avoid conflicts and facilitate communication and teamwork between colleagues.

However, this process may cause some pressure. It may make some people anxious while trying to meet all the other side’s preferences. Moreover, it can fill others with high hopes feelings, expecting that their colleagues will take into consideration all their preferred criterias which is hard to be done.

Also, I suppose that work relationships are supposed to be cool and flexible in a professional kind of way, so making them somehow personal may be uncomfortable for some teammates. ( The personal side should be taken into consideration genuinely, relying on emotional intelligence, it may be hard or embarassing for some people to show it or write it ).

Most importantly, I think the personal operating manuel can be a lot helpful for managers and team leaders to better know their team members and manage the team’s strengths and weaknesses more efficiently.

Providing preferred meeting times, availabilities and preferred communication styles between all colleagues is helpful for organization too.

Thank you for sharing this with us, I would be very interested in reading more of Kafteji News, as well as watching the reels on instagram.
