Some questions to ask your employees:
- If you could give up one aspect of your job, what would it be?
- If you were running the company, what would you do differently?
- How can we help you to be the best you can be?
- What task would you like to try right now?
Maybe you have a sales team, for example, and each person is focused solely on his/her goals. Team members aren't getting along and are "back-stabbing" each other. Find a common goal for your team. If the goal is met, celebrate!
Things To Avoid:
- Micromanaging. Set general guidelines and expectations, but allow employees the freedom to do their jobs.
- Increased workloads without a strategy for managing them. Find a way for work to get done without undue stress on any one individual.
- Surprises! Communicate, communicate, communicate. Explain why change is necessary and what you expect the future to hold.
Until next time...
