When it comes to making a good career in the business world，being honest and getting along well with colleagues gives a person a solid competitive advantage，claims a new research．
Dr．Jon Bohlmann has found that project managers can expect better performance by far from the members of their team if treating them with honesty, kindness, and respect．According to another study, the cross-functional product development teams can achieve a great quality and better cost benefits from socializing and interacting with individuals who work for their suppliers．
The first, Dr. Bohlmann's study analyzed cross-functional product development teams，which combine together engineers, researchers and business personnel．The point to involve people with various backgrounds was to show that there was a focus on finance, marketing and also on a design and functionality, right from the start of the product-development process. In addition to all this, this diversity also helped to make communication more effective in order to ensure that all members of the team were socializing and cooperating, and not just working at cross-purposes．
As a result, it indicated that “interactional fairness awareness” indeed had an effect on a “cross-functional communication”. In other words, all the team members who thought that they had been treated well and respected, showed a great increase in their commitment to the success of the project they had been working on in cooperation with other team members, and，in particular, when they realized their project manager or supervisor to be a kind, nice and honest guy．
According to Dr．Bohlmann，the increase in such commitment is very essential and important because it could improve performance that would result in the achievement of team goals．And if Bohlmann?s study comes to the conclusion that nice and honest guys are the first to finish，the second research by Dr．Rob Handfield shows us that cooperating and socializing well with others can give a team，and even a company an edge, when it comes to product development．
