Good boss does not presuppose anything

Illustration

Good manager inspires subordinates to devote their best efforts to their work. That is, however, not as easy as it seems at first glance. If your people do not give the expected performance, try to think about your leadership style. Are you quilty of key leadership mistakes?

1. You suppose that a good employee immediately fits in the new workplace

Hiring a professional is not enough. Boss should devote their time to newcomers regardless of their experience and make them thoroughly familiar with his strategic plan.

2. You believe that no one can do the job better than you

Good boss is surrounded by capable people who can carry independent responsibility. he hires them so that he could  focus only on the most important things.

3. You believe that it is enough to say everything just once

Good manager must be able to work with feedback not only at the performance evaluation but throughout the whole year. He helps his people understand how they can improve.

4. You do not have time to plan because you are too busy with current work

If you feel that you spend all day solving the current crises, take the time to clarify your strategy for the future. Otherwise, you will soon encounter burnout.

5. You think that your people know that they are doing well and you do not have to tell them

Not talking about successes and highlighting only mistakes means getting rid of employee motivation for better performance.
