Working Over Older Employees
All,
How do you deal with directing folk who are older than you (sometimes 20-30 years older) in getting tasks done for you? How do you deal with an assistant who may be a tad on the lazy side (my perception, which may or may not be accurate)?
I am an atty so we have assistants (secretaries) but I often do not feel comfortable giving my assistant assignments b/c she is older than me. I often feel as if I am wrong for telling her to do anything for me.
Has anyone experienced this? How do you handle it? What is your mentality wrt this?
