Winchell Sr., he incorporates what it takes to be a great general manager. It is important to understand people by applying specific theories related to reinforcement, teamwork, why employees fail at their job and motivation. As a leader, it is significant for employees to feel appreciated. A simple thank you shows appreciation and respect for the employee. General Managers have the ability to reward those employees who are exceptional in their position.
It involves modeling the vision, forming teams, influencing them and aligning people to achieve the set goals. Leadership bears the responsibility of inspiring people and producing meaningful changes in the company. Leadership is therefore responsible for positioning people and organizations in the right positions. A good leader has the ability to articulate a vision and assign the right people the right tasks based on their talents. Leaders motivate their subordinates and in return obtain outstanding results from their employees.
What the employees like best about the company are the flexible work hours and the opportunity to work with knowledgeable, team-oriented colleagues. One of the principals' main goal is to retain good staff. When the company was brought up, the principals wanted to have a firm that provided a fun and participative workplace. The work force consisted of well educated professionals and they wanted them to feel empowered. Although the company has grown rapidly, the employees are starting to complain about certain situations.
When the time comes and I address things that need to be fixed, I do not receive negative feedback from my employees. They all understand the issue at hand and try to fix it, based on their roles and tasks. Overall, I believe that one can be a successful leader if they can be a successful manager. Both of these titles work best hand-in-hand. A leader is someone that leads a team toward the main goal.
Leaders have to set the standard by being empathic, supportive and use a range of different leadership styles to develop and maintain the team, they also have be fair and consistent, as workers that feel they are unfairly treated by a manager will not show loyalty and will do the minimum. The leader also has to demonstrate capability and experience, as having workers that are more highly achieving than the leader breeds resentment. Tuckman (1965) described the stages of team development as ‘Forming, Storming, Norming and Performing. As teams travel through these stages trust, respect and understanding of individual’s strengths and tolerance of their weaknesses is established. This process allows individuals to learn about each other personalities, coping strategies and response to pressure, allowing for bonds between members to be formed.
You can use constructive feed back to build on use it as a tool not a negative. Work as part of a team; keep calm listen and respect, the people you are working with. Your past experiences can also help, and using your own initiative being positive. Appraisals are good way to receive constructive feedback, this will show your strengths and weakness, you might need more training on your moving and handling as you are not using the equipment properly. I receive positive feedback from my manager, she had over heard me talking to a service user who was being challenging with me, she explained she was very happy with the way I dealt with the situation calmed things down before they became worst.
Management accepts employees that follow the rules and do their job the way that management says to. * Expert Power: Employees listen and follow managers that have knowledge and that are experts in their fields. This helps employees do their jobs efficiently and effectively. Also having a manager with these special skills will make an employee follow the advice that is given to them. * Referent Power: Many employees have tried to emulate a manager because they respect and admire that manager.
Being reliable, consistent and accountable for the organization your working for, creating long term visions for company growth. I act as a good role model for the team that I supervise by treating them all equal individuals and by communicating to know them a bit better and them getting to know me. I can understand their strengths and weaknesses, this allows me to set challenges, goals or time out for training to develop better skills to be more competent workers. EG; I had some bad feed back from a client about her eyebrow wax. She was not happy as they were two different shapes.
An employee's perception is everything, even if it may be incorrect. Another way that employee relations can be improved is to have the confidence of your employed staff. Having managers / supervisors that employees feel " have their backs", listen to what they have to say, pass along their fears, concerns, and ideas to the powers that be, and remain creditable, mean the world to employee. These managers / supervisors are an asset to any company. To an employee, the manager / supervisor is the company.
I think the humanistic-encouraging trait is important because like any other leader, people must trust you, set goals that are attainable, learn how to resolve issues in a constructive manner, and encourage your followers. I enjoy listening to people’s problems and helping them think positive and find the healthiest or best solution. I am normally the person my friends come to when they need to talk to someone. I believe as a manager a person must have a sense of how a person is and deal with each person individually if needed so each person as an understanding of what is the mission is. Controlling as a manager is something I believe I will have to work on.
