What I have understood after being an onsite coordinator for close to two years, is the significance of responsibility and meeting the deliverable dates. The trust, rapport and the service solely depends on how we fulfill the committed deadline.
I always insisted offshore resources not to work beyond 8 P.M IST, but today I behaved little different and pushed my counterpart to work even late night to complete one assigned task that has been pending for client deliverable since last week. I am surprised to see myself with this dramatic change of behavior. I am caught in between the client and offshore. I have no excuses for delaying the deliverable from offshore side due to my leniency and go easy policy.
