how to be a good manager. give me some tips?

Answer 1

1-Learn as much as you can about Performance Management. Click the link below. Great guidelines on PM.
2-Do not become to chummy with subordinates, but do keep the lines of communication open with them.
3-Dont follow the 80/20 rule. Do you know what that is? Most employers spend 80% of their time with the bad employees, and 20% with the good. Make equal time for both. When an employee does a great job, find a way to praise them right away.
4-When you see an employee performing badly, changes in behavior for the worse, and not maintaining company standard, pull them aside and counsel them right away. Be direct, state specifics, and do not be punishing. Have them help you develop solutions to get through their problems.
5-On a personal note, develop resiliency to deal with stressors in the workplace. Because as the manager, you are undoubtedly the first one that will be blamed.
6-Read as many books as you can on effective communication. My personal favorite (and you can purchase these on www.amazon.com) are "Winning Office Politics," "How to Talk to Anyone," and "How to Work a Room."
7-Finally, be fair, be friendly, but never lose your position as "manager." This will help you earn their respect, trust, and admiration.

Answer 2

Here's a few tips:

1) Listen to your employees: Everyone wants to feel valued & respected. If you give that to your employees, you'll get it back ten-fold.

2) Become friends: Sounds contrary to what many people say but this has always worked for me. Get to know your employees as human beings first, employees second. I used to invite the entire office over for BBQs, get togethers, etc. and they did the same. We all got to know each other in a setting that wasn't dominated by work. I've found people are more productive & willing to bend over backward if there's a friendship there.

3) Stay firm: The hardest part about becoming friends with employees is that you still have to be the Boss. Accept that -- they know your role in the company & you should too. Make a clear distinction between your roles. For instance, take 10 minutes in the morning to chit chat, ask how their weekend was, etc etc but then get back to work & make it clear you expect them to do the same.

4) Keep your people busy: As a manager, the workload on your desk tends to pile up. Remember to delegate. Give out projects that you do not have to be hands on. Employees will more than likely appreciate being given the chance to do something different. Also, you'll be able to gauge who can handle & accomplish work that's outside of their day-to-day norm.

Hope that helps!

Answer 3

Experience is clearly one thing you need.
But I also recommend books and classes. Here are two good books I recommend:

“First Break All the Rules” by Marcus Bunkingham and Curt Coffman. I recommend this as it is based on a huge Gallup survey of managers and what they are doing differently.”

“Only the Paranoid Survive” by Andrew Grove. Written in 1996, Andy talks about strategic inflection points and how businesses react to them.

I've been managing groups and people for 10+ years across the world, and one very important tip is to listen, be aware, and seek to understand, versus just assuming you know the answer.
