Here are some tips to harmonize relationships and improve productivity as a leader on a technical team:
1. Come to terms with the fact that you will rarely be the smartest person in the roomDirecting a room filled with people who are more knowledgeable in an area of expertise than you are can be uncomfortable. Realize that the secret to success in leadership is not knowledge, but access to knowledge.
Even highly trained technical people have limitations, and oftentimes the more talented they are, the quicker they are to admit their boundaries. You should do the same. Your technical team will forgive you for acknowledging if something is outside of your area of expertise. What they won’t forgive is if you pretend to know something you don’t, then use assumptions to make a decision. Admitting your limitations encourages your team members to follow suit, ultimately supporting a culture that is honest in self-assessments and leverages collective knowledge.
2. Find an interpreterPublically admitting your technical limitations doesn’t remove you from having to function within a technical environment. A working understanding of technical jargon and systems will make your job much easier. You can’t lead well unless you understand what’s going on, at least at a high level. Identify someone on your team who can translate for you. This person should, ideally, be an ally and a leader.
3. Learn something new everydayYou may be able to convince a group of technical people to trust you, despite your lack of technical knowledge, but you won’t be able to retain that trust unless you show a real interest in what they do. Learning a little bit each day about what your team members do and why they do it allows you to demonstrate that their work is important to you, thus important to the company.
4. Be the Phil Jackson to their Michael JordanTo be successful at managing highly technical, well-educated talent, you must provide them with the best tools to do their job, offer your best guidance when they need it, and then step back and let them take the shot.
In addition to supplying first-rate resources, offer access to ongoing education so that your team continues to grow. Look for opportunities for team members to step up and lead others and find group activities that promote learning and development.
5. Slow your roll.Highly technical people are generally detail-oriented, and can be more resistant to change. So grab yourself a desktop Zen garden or stress ball and find peace in the extended journey, because changes – like new processes, guidelines or expectations – can take longer to implement than you may anticipate. The benefit of this extra time is that the added attention to detail means things like your new system for reporting software issues will likely be handled right the first time.
Ans:
A non-technical Manager will have a challenge to manage a team of highly professional Technical Team. However, I am assuming that the non-technical Manager has business acumen, innovative approach and excellent leadership capabilities. Normally, this situation arises when the non-technical manager also look after other activities i.e. Business Development and customer relationship which is common in such a situation. Since, it is a challenge, the manager has to be very diplomatic and should continuously acquire and develop his basic knowledge how the technical output is passed on to customers and generate business profit.
So, the team management tips may be as follows:
1. Conduct regular progress meeting with programmers and to communicate the same to the customers.
2. Have regular feedback from the customers and pass the feedback of customers to the Programmers for update/review.
3. If the project is going smoothly as noted by customer, appreciate the concerned programmer in Public.
4. For good coordination, have an informal get together outside the office to energize everybody and to encourage open communication.
5. Develop good interpersonal relationship and open communication with all programmers.
With a strong team spirit and leadership capability, the non- technical Manager would become a Successful Manager
