Query:

STORY: Are You Sharing a Staffer With Another Boss? If So,
You're Not Alone

Companies are increasingly asking employees to play duel roles
and work for multiple bosses - 44% of U.S. employees do so,
according to Gallup.

What does working for multiple bosses mean for employers and for
employee-sharing or team-sharing managers?

We're exploring the growing trend of employees answering to
multiple bosses on a regular basis. This is happening more and
more as COVID-related layoffs thin out the ranks and have a
single employee answering to two (usually) bosses.

We'd like to answer these queries:

1. As a manager or staffer, have you experienced a worker
answering to two or more bosses? If so, what was it like?

2. Why are employees or teams likely to work for two bosses? In
what workplace environment does this make sense?

3. What management strategies should be deployed when having two
bosses share an employee? Are there turf issues or calendar
requirements to work out?

4. How do managers handle communications - with each other and
with the employee they're managing? Any specifics?

5. How do managers handle time and scheduling - with each other
and with the team or employee they're sharing?

6. What are the biggest mistakes than managers make when two or
more more are sharing a team or employee?

All comments welcome. Thank you.

Requirements:

Company managers and supervisors, C-level execs, business
owners, business experts, leadership experts, management
experts, managers who have shared supervision of employees or
teams and can share their experience

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-b7dq@helpareporter.net

Deadline: 8:00 AM EST - 1 September

Query:

What do you think about the below statement? Is it possible to
convince a landlord to pay for a renovation? If so, how? What
are some tips and tricks for tenants?

------

Many tenants assume they can't renovate, that their landlord
won't allow it. Not so fast -- here's how to get your landlord
on board. For one, if something is broken (like a sink), that's
the perfect time to propose not just a repair, but an upgrade of
new kitchen counters or a farmhouse sink. Or, landlords are also
generally up for renovations that'll add long-term value. You
can also offer to pitch in some money, and you can request
weighing in on the design decisions (since you're living there).
