How to change way of being addressed by Team?












0















I am a Software Team Lead in a Private concern where I am leading a Team for more than a year.



Few members in the team calls me 'Sir' and few calls me 'brother' since last year. Even though I have asked me to call by name many times ,they could not follow it.



By this , I am unable to enforce new people joining in the team to call me by my name.



What could be the best solution for this ?

  • This is probably very culture dependent. Could you add a tag that indicates where in the world we're talking about?
