As a manager, when you face a problem that you can't handle, to whom you will go for advice or assistance?

option3.Colleague managers because my colleagues are my best friend and so supportive.

I view your question as when I can't handle the problem means my team cannot handle it, then I will consult my colleague managers because I keep good working relations with each other..

Go with a Brainstroming with Your Team, and discuss the conclusion with your superior.

It depends on the level of the trouble. If it is a technical issue, I will meet with my team, otherwise, I will meet with the sponsor to discuss it.

Sir, If I take your question techincally then your team including you, have failed to meet the creiteria of the asked task, therefore, it is essential to consult with project manager or any senior colleague manager for assistance. 

 

You can keep working yourself, but this will take time to resolve the problem and you should not be able to deliver accordingly to the plan. 

·         It depends on the situation, I may seek for help from My team, My Management or My colleague Managers. Any of the above mentioned can help according to the problem circumstances.

If you're facing problem as a manager, The best way to handle it evolve your team, being a team member you can boost others, and easily you can boost your self.

If work related i ll  always ask my colleagues and work to the solution,that is the purpose of a taem 

As a manager and since day one at work i will take all necessary measures and precautions to avoid any obstacles or delay or conflict. As for problems that i cannot handle , it should be divided into different criterias and not one. In other words, sometimes there is a technical issue at work that one of the team might have the solution to it and can save the day why note. After all its team work.

While if the problem is related to the performance of one of the team members, i discuss the issue at the beginning with the team member to understand his needs and support he is lacking. In case i find that nothing changed after all the support and motivation and listening then i will be rising the issue to the higher management. The latter will decide the best solution for the problem: either having the team member attending more training sessions or classes, providing more support to him, transfering him  maybe to another department.

 

As for friends , i learned one main concept is seperating work issues from normal life issues. Friends do not need to hear work problems for millions of reasons related to the reputation of the company , its activity...

It depends on:

1. The nature of the problem
2. Its relation to the people mentioned in terms of responsibility and/or know-how.

Generally I would use the help of the following in order of mention:

1. Team members
2. Colleague managers
3. Management

Since my field belongs to online work  related services,  So my first step will be to find solution online, Though in my almost all cases i figure out a solution at my own, Else I discuss it with my collegues and solve the issue.

 

So the nature of job and work environment may have different situations.

 

So if one can not figure out solution at his own, then its a good option to discuss with other team mates. Since they are also working with you and have different knowledge and experience.
