“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:

Managing Employees Performance
Measuring employee performance has come a long way from the annual performance appraisal to an on-going performance management process. In the past, managers and employees met once a year for the annual performance appraisal (review) to look back at the work done during the previous year and to evaluate what was accomplished. Human resources managers, managers/ supervisors and employees have come to realize that only looking back does little to improve performance. In recent years, there has been a shift away from performance appraisals to a more comprehensive approach called performance management.

Business Coaching Tips For Effective Supervision From Your Strategic Thinking Business Coach
In today’s workplace there are daily examples of dysfunctional and ineffective supervision. Many people in supervisory roles have not been given the necessary training to be effective supervisors. Here are ten (10) tips from your strategic thinking coach to share with the supervisors in your businesses and organizations.

Managing Projects Through People
Management can be a tricky thing. Many companies promote people to management / supervisory positions based on their knowledge of the job and ability to get things done. But management goes so far beyond that, which is why many managers are not as effective as they should be. So what does it take to be an effective manager/supervisor? A supervisors job is to manage both people and projects. Tuning people-management and project-management skills are necessary for any manager to truly be effective.

How Are Your People-Management Skills?
What percentage of managers, supervisors and entrepreneurs are excellent at managing people? A recent survey was done asking this question and the results may surprise you. The fact is that all entrepreneurs need to have great management skills, and at the heart of that must be interpersonal skills. Read on to find out the percentages and how to self-assess yourself and your staff.

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. Those supervisors that take this task seriously and utilize their supervisory skills are the ones that have a dramatic and positive effect on the overall business as well as their staff’s performance and behavior. Are your supervisor ready for the challenges ahead? Do they need training?

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.

How Leadership Training Can Turn Fractured Management Into Productive Output
With every business, the growth rate and sustainability of every project or account must be thoroughly monitored by upper management/supervisors for optimal results. From establishing the right precedent from top-to-bottom on down to creating an inviting, but accountable atmosphere, there are a number of factors involved with grooming your managers.
