“Powerful Communication Tips For Managers and Supervisors, From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach”
Recently I read about a study conducted in 2001, which included approximately 20,000 exit interviews. A major finding in the study was that poor communications skills of supervisors were a leading factor in poor supervisory behavior, which caused people to leave their jobs. And I believe there is plenty of evidence today that there are many people who have been promoted into management and supervisory positions without the proper communications skills and therefore are causing this dysfunctional behavior to continue in many workplaces. Okay coach, what do you prescribe to take care of these poor communication skills of managers and supervisors? Well, your strategic thinking business coach wants to share thirteen (13) powerful communication tips for them, as well as others in the workplace. Here they are:
Business Coaching Tips For Effective Supervision From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach

Loyalty Building Strategies for Managers
High turnover is an expensive problem for organizations. This article provides three simple ways managers and supervisors can improve retention on their teams.
Supervisory Skills
Supervisors are responsible for not only meeting corporate goals, they are also responsible for bridging the gap between upper management and front-line employees.

Want to Change Employee Behavior? Change Yourself First
The greatest epiphany we see in the managers, supervisors and team leaders we train and coach is that the behaviors (good and bad) of the workgroup often reflect the approach taken by the leader. After learning how to be more constructive, supervisors will say that employees are being more positive, helpful and accountable. The leader changed first - then the employees changed!
Basic Feedback Should Be BASIC
One of the key skills of supervisors is giving feedback to employees about their performance. Feedback, of course, includes praise for a job well done as well as constructive observations about how things could be done better. Apprehension about providing feedback to employees is particularly acute among newly promoted supervisors. This is often the result of a lack of the supervisory training.
Stop Enabling Problem Employees
Supervisors often lose control of the situation by trying to be understanding and kind about following the rules. They make small exceptions that end up becoming habits, and soon the rules are not enforced at all. It is important to be sensitive to emergency or exception situations, but it is equally important to enforce the rules with an even hand. It is an area where many supervisors struggle. This article suggests an antidote.

Do You Make These Mistakes When Trying To Improve Performance at Work
When it comes to managers and supervisors trying to improve performance at work, most of them either struggle or fail because they don't practice several key skills that will make a huge difference. I know because I started out making the same mistakes until I finally figured it out. The reason why most managers and supervisors don't succeed as easily as they can in their position is because they don't address issues in a timely manner or at all, they don't do everything in their power to keep the environment positive, they don't know how to connect with their people, and they don't challenge their people to grow on a daily basis. There are many others but in my opinion these are the four most common mistakes I have seen in my experiences. It can be very easy to improve performance at work if they can master solving these four problems.
