Work Enjoyment Helps Employee Retention.
Employee retention is about the nature of the work itself and the work environment/culture. What can you do? Firstly, you have to get the basics right - good pay, appropriate conditions, etc. Secondly, you have to remove the fear of uncertainty - employees should feel safe and secure in their employment. They should not be concerned about your employment practices. They should not picture you 'with a whip'. Thirdly, you have to work hard to create and maintain a good work culture and climate.

How Middle Managers are Key to Company Success
In hierarchal organizations, strategic intent flows from the top, while tactical implementation is carried out at the bottom. In the middle of the flow are middle managers: first- second- and third tier supervisors, managers and senior managers who are mandated to proactively deliver the planned strategy's goals. The challenge is that the bulk of their energy is spent tactically (and often) reactively responding to pressures from customers, subordinates, peers and their boss. In fact, how the middle manager responds on a moment-by-moment basis is more impactful to a strategy's success (and an organization's cohesion) than the communication of the plan in the first place.

12 steps field sales coach plan
The reality is that most sales managers do not spend enough time with their staff in a coaching capacity. Providing constant feedback and being a role model who demonstrates the right skills. Many managers today are still focusing too heavily on short term efficiency and not long term effectiveness. Development of staff through on-the-job coaching is a critical function of modern day managers but can take second place to some of the more urgent, but less important priorities.

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.

Managers Can Kill Employee Motivation

Emotionally intelligent managers listen to their employees, and elicit feedback that will improve work place performance.

The Consequences for Supervisors Who Ignore Poor Employee Performance
Dealing with problem employees can be a handful and sometimes managers place this at the bottom of their priority list. Here are some consequences that can be had if managers simply ignore difficult employees.

Stop Managing and Start Leading
Ask any group of managers if they view themselves as an elite within their organization and you can be sure they will deny it. You'll hear comments such as: "I have an open-door policy" and "I take pride in always being accessible and approachable." And in most cases, these managers will really believe what they are saying. What they don't realize, however, are the many invisible barriers - the "glass doors" - they put in place.
