Being a good manager requires experience, hard work and theoretical knowledge. But you can also improve your management style with the following lesser-known but still very effective tips.
These tips were published by Gallup.com.
One of the best ways to improve your management style while also increasing the productivity and flexibility of the whole team is to teach your subordinates how to learn from mistakes. Do not view a mistake in the team as something negative, but rather as an opportunity.
Frankly, most rank-and-file workers do not like meetings. Give them a break by introducing days when team meetings are prohibited.
Mental health awareness should be a daily part of your communication. Talk openly about this issue and set an example to subordinates by taking good care of your own mental well-being.
One way to enliven your subordinates' work and allow them to learn more about what their colleagues are doing is to let them do some kind of internship with other teams. Specify a programme in which you will allow subordinates to do such an internship.
This is an effective system especially for situations when you want to train a newcomer to the team quickly. The buddy system consists in assigning a newcomer a "buddy" from among their colleagues; this person then helps not only with their induction into the work agenda, but also with explaining practical matters at the company.
