Adjust your management style to your subordinates' individual preferences
As Forbes states, every worker has slightly different preferences when it comes to communication style and management approach. While you should maintain a certain predictable and clear management style, you still need to adjust your approach to subordinates' preferences. During review meetings, modify your communication style to establish strong relationships with your employees.
Allow subordinates to be interested in other roles within the company
As a manager, you should support the interests and preferences of your subordinates. You should also support their ambitions and help them to develop. This means, among other things, giving them the opportunity to seek employment within the company and outside your team. If a subordinate is interested in such a horizontal move, do not prevent it.
Ensure subordinates have the opportunity to develop and learn
Every person and every worker should have the opportunity to develop their strengths, learn and advance. Some managers deny subordinates this opportunity, sometimes out of fear that their subordinates will "outgrow" them. However, this is a big mistake and if you actually deny them the opportunity to learn, you will definitely undermine their loyalty to the company.
Support subordinates' strengths
Everyone has certain weaknesses and strengths. As a manager, it is your job to detect and encourage subordinates' strengths. This will benefit both the company and subordinates themselves. Among other things, it will increase their loyalty and commitment to the company.
