Are You a Great Manager?

| A twenty-five year Gallup study of over eighty thousand managers discovered the secrets of great managers. Here’s what the research uncovered -- Great managers hire employees based on talent, not experience. This flies in the face of the arguments I hear from sales managers all over the country.

| |
| One of the most common topics of conversation in today’s workplace is the incompetence of managers and executives. And there does not seem to be any evidence that this subject is going away anytime soon.

Managers Only Gain 4 Per Cent Pay Rise
| |
| According to Incomes Data Services, Managers have averaged pay rises of 4% in recent months.
A study covering 26,000 managers showed that pay rises had only kept pace with the rate of UK inflation.
So 4% is the average. That means some managers get more and some get less.
How can you ensure you get more, much, much more? |

So what is the Definition of a Manager?
| |
| A classic definition of what managers are about is that ‘Leaders do the right thing and managers do things right’. A more standard definition is that managers would work towards the organisation’s goals using the resources at their disposal.
It of course also depends on the size of the organisation. Larger companies might require managers to oversee the efforts and achievements of a further level of managers. A General Manager might have several other managers reporting to him or even several levels of management reporting to each other. |

How Managers Undermine Employee Performance
| |
| Are you working in an organization where managers know how to motivate people? Are managers held accountable for listening to their employees and addressing any complaints?
I coach a number of managers who consistently complain about certain employees, but don't take the time or make the effort to address any underlying concerns. Effective managers listen to their employees, and are open to any feedback that will improve work place performance.
Spend enough time in meetings or the executive lunchroom, and you're destined to hear your fair share of managers' complaints about their employees. |

Are You Genuinely A Leader Or Merely A Manager?
| |
| Without managers, the visions of leaders remain dreams. Leaders need managers to convert visions into realities. For continuous success, organizations need both managers and leaders. However, as most seem to be over-managed and under-led, they need to find ways of having both at the same time. Perhaps the best way to handle this paradox is for managers to aim to be managers when viewed from above, leaders when viewed from below and to remember that the need for leadership grows as we move up the organization. This is only one of the challenges that can make working life fun.
