Irv Holmes of Challenge Dairy Products and The American Butter Institute brings you a new presentation on the top management techniques for every manager. Enjoy and please share!
2. • When you are managing people no matter the size
you need to have certain basics under your belt so
you can be seen an effective leader and gain
respect
• There are plenty of ways to show that you’re the
boss but there’s even more way to mess it all up
for yourself
• It really all boils down to basic thinking and putting
that into action
• You have learned some of the best management
techniques ever since you were young and they
were re-enforced when you went to college and
put in a business setting
• The techniques you will read about below will give
you a better understand of how to manage
properly in your business
3. Fairness
• A good manager and leader treats all his/her subordinates
equally
• Everyone has had a job or two where the manager has a
clear favorite among the group and they were treated vastly
different than the other employees
• This creates animosity, jealousy, and ultimately affects the
way the department and company are run at a certain level
• A good manager must keep the playing field level, create
healthy competition, and be fair with all employees
4. Consistency
• Always keeping the same level of consistency is key to
any good manager repertoire
• There needs to be the same consistency for all people in
the group you are managing
• An example of this would be if an employee asks to leave
early for a doctor's appointment
• Now you are more often than not obligated to do this for
everyone as you have set the precedent that it is ok to
leave early for other circumstances
5. Openness
• The best managers always encourage open and honest feedback
and communication between their employees and themselves
• They also encourage new ideas from everyone in their
department
• Sometimes new ideas can bloom seemingly out of nowhere, and
sometimes those ideas can make a real difference in the growth
of the company
• Its vital that a manager is there to discuss the ideas and views an
employee has so that they can do their job better and better
serve the company
6. Empowerment
• Empowering your team is one of the most important things you
can do as a manager
• Having your team confident and knowing that they are helping to
grow the business is a massive advantage that every manager
strives for but not every manager achieves
• It isn’t always the easiest thing for people but it is highly beneficial
• Give your employees more responsibilities, allow them to pursue
projects, and give them the tools they need to succeed and grow
themselves personally and professionally, and everything will
come back to a healthy and sustainable business
7. Messaging
• This technique relates directly to knowing your audience
• Most often you will not write or speak the exact same phrases that you
come up with in your head
• The proper messaging in an organization is a key trait to have as a
manager or someone of authority
• Certain messages need to be handled carefully and delicately, but also
need to be honest
• The last thing you want is employees feeling that they weren't told the
truth because you doctored your words too much
• Be honest and keep the framework positive
