It has been quite confusing to various organizations, which organizational structure to adapt? What shall be the amount of execution at each hierarchial level? Is it advisable to reduce the number of permanent employees and how difficult is it for individuals to mange their careers during transitional period in an organization?

These are some of the basic and interesting questions, which are the main concerns of The Dilbert Syndrome. The syndrome becomes holds its importance in understanding the problems of both big and small organizations.

In big companies these are different characters, some people are lazy by nature,Some people are incompetent because of lack of training, Some people are disillusioned because the lazy, incompetent people get to tell them what to do. If any of these people are also smart, they can make good careers in large corporations because it is easy to camouflage your lack of results, your wrong decisions and your bad attitude in large organizations.

In small companies, hiding a lack of performance is generally more difficult. So you can weed out the people who don't fit, don't perform or are bad for morale.

So be specific what you need and what is required, do waht the situation demands, this will reduce the amount of chaos and confusion about above mentioned problems. Here are some more guidelines for you how can you reduce the effect of this syndrome in your organization:

  • Be clear about your actions and if you aren't, hire someone who can act.
  • Communicate and cordinate effectivelly with your employees, so that they can know, where they are leading towards and thus put efforts in their work 
  • Allocate allowances and benefits, when people do more than their jobs, speciaaly in case of large organizations, were there is large communication gap
  • Encourage the ideas of your staff and employees...

But were the difficulty lies is the size of organization. As I already mentioned in small organizations it is easy to assess, but in big organizations, investigate and communicate before you act
