Managers: learn to encourage subordinates

Keywords: Manager Management encourages communication between employees and management staff

Any parent who has a similar requirement: from superior's recognition and commendation. However, even if they have such a demand, nor is it can easily meet the requirements under the same. This is not only the people pushing himself and is not easy, because the superior "down" is more easily found subordinates, and because of the so-called "advantages not run off, shortcomings do not speak about" mentality, criticize, urges or even angry became the main contents of the upper and lower communication, ignore the necessary to encourage, guide and affinity.

The author worked for enterprise surveys suggest that most people (89%) compared to care about enterprise working relationships between colleagues, in particular whether the subordinate relationship, is considered "is the working environment is good or bad of important components". Sometimes it is more important than the material conditions.

The initiative encourages the subordinate

In fact, the unhappy workplace from above and below the misunderstandings and the resulting disharmony. Top and bottom both levels, the nature are obvious potential drop, drop very easily lead to communication barriers. Superior because relative power and prestige is high (not necessarily), a broad perspective, etc have greater communication initiative (concerns less). The reason because instead of subordinates in the communication on a more passive (concerns more). At this point, if not actively encourage superior subordinates even often faces, verbally aggressive, will inevitably result in nervous atmosphere. Two communication channels so the "bandwidth" narrower, obscure impeded. While subordinate psychologically produces fear, disgust, trying to avoid contact with the subconscious. As the superior conditioning, will add to the misunderstanding that pique intended gradually. At this point, the two sides of the IQ level will be decreased significantly. This involved in creative work (research and development, marketing and management are such) subordinates who harm especially heavy. Therefore, if the lines of communication, we can be sure of its responsibility in superior. Taking a step back, since their management range of destination to relying on subordinate to reach, there is no reason to let them in depressed mood begin the next effort. Only from a utilitarian point of view (reach management effect), the Association encourages the subordinate is doing the basic skills of managers.

In addition to the above "affinity" considerations, there are the following reasons:

1. While it is easy to see subordinate down may not know, can also play a subordinate to be observed. Timely recognition and commendation will enhance self-confidence, develop and demonstrate their potential;

2. the leader often can teach people to experience, but many people cannot be moved. Instead of repeatedly accused its inadequate, as the Director of the adjustment can be used. This reason very easy, difficult to implement in the former and the latter implemented easily. But in the face of repeated mistakes, managers should consider the difference between the two. Its Director is the most important motivation.
