Effective Manager

10 positive actions that’ll make


managers more effective
 Nobody ever said being a manager was easy.
Here’s an look at how under your supervision
people can increase their effectiveness — and
become the managers everybody wants to work
for.

Managers Are Heroes, do a list of things that’ll


spark enthusiasm in employees .
Demand excellence
 Mediocrity sucks. If you do not demand
excellence, that is what…
 you’ll get – a department full of mediocrity.
 When I ask people to describe the best

manager they’ve ever had – no one said “it was


the manager who was just goody goody and
friendly with them
 All of them said It was the one who pushed
them – and challenged them to do things that
they never thought they could do.
Be passionate
 If
you’re not all-in, why will people want to go
above and beyond for you?

 Ifyou’re excited about the work you’re doing and


the people you’re helping – let people know.
Scream it from the mountain.

 Tattoo it on your chest. Passion is contagious.

 Passionate
managers spread passion to his
team members
Believe in your people.
 Be their No. 1 fan. Let them know it. Believe in
them more than they believe in themselves.

 If you don’t believe in your people – then why


should they work there?

 When you truly believe in your people, you’ll be


surprised as to what they can achieve.
Listen.
 No…Really…Listen. How often are you planning
what to say next – instead of listening to the
person sitting in front of you?
 It’s OK if you don’t get your point in. It’s OK if
there is uncomfortable silence after the person is
done talking because you’re not prepared to
jump in.
 It is important to allow people to express
themselves – and truly be interested in what
they are saying, they may have an excellent
idea
Have fun
 We often spend too much time in the
office on our work and do not to enjoy
ourselves, this makes our job boring and
makes us less productive
 Lighten up things at work. Everyone needs
an opportunity to blow off some steam.
 All work and no play will make people less
productive
 People will perform better when they are
happy
Tell them about top 3
priorities
 Communicate your top 3 priorities on a regular
basis to your team members
 Tell them…Tell them again…And then tell them
one more time.
 It’s a morale killer to work hard on a task/project
and then find out it was not really a high priority.
 If you want your people to be independent
thinkers who consistently perform above and
beyond, make sure they know what your top
priorities are.
Say thank you
 We get so busy that sometimes we forget
the simple things.

 Your people may not show their


appreciation every time you say thank you.
but I guarantee they will remember you
when you don’t.
Delegate important tasks
I know…I know…“Who has time to teach
someone this task? It would just be easier to do
it myself.” This what most managers practice
 When we delegate important tasks – we honor
our people.
 We are telling them how important they are –
and how much we trust them.
 When people know they’re trusted and are
responsible for important tasks, they’re more
engaged and more likely to go above and
beyond for you.
Catch them doing right
 Have you heard this one before – “My people get
paid to work here. They will know very clearly
when they’re doing something wrong.” That …
Won’t …Fly …Anymore … My dear managers
 As a rule of thumb, try to give your people at least
one piece of positive feedback per week.
 If you cannot think of one positive thing to say

about your people – you may need to think about


whether that person should be working with you ?
Have their backs
 You won’t get the most from your employees – if they
don’t feel they are safe. If their first concern is to
document their actions so they don’t get in trouble –
you’re in trouble.
 Your people need to know that you will go to any extent
in order to help them.
 This may mean taking the hit from above when someone
on your team makes a mistake or pushing back on a
task when you know that your team is already
overloaded.
 Words are cheap when it comes to this – you are going
to have to prove this one with actions.
Thank you
