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. They want experienced salespeople. Gallup found that great managers look at talent, not just history.
Being Accountable for Accountability.
Everywhere I go in my consulting practice, performance "accountability" is among the top two or three concerns of senior executives. Accountability has various definitions, but the word is usually used to denote personal responsibility for getting desired results. It's an admirable idea, and all good managers and leaders want their people to be "accountable." Of course accountability doesn't apply only to rank and file employees. Managers and leaders should be accountable for holding others accountable. After all, isn't getting good results with and through other people the very reason we have managers and leaders?
Practice, Practice, Practice then Play
In the sporting world it is expected that athletes make the time to practice, practice, practice and then go and compete or play the game. Through regular practice they hone their skills, behaviours and attitudes to ensure they are ‘match fit’ and ready to compete at the highest standards. A sports team needs to make sure that when they are in the thick of the game they can draw upon those skill drills and practice sessions to perform well as a team and perform well under pressure. When an individual athlete is neck and neck with a competitor racing for the finish line they need to know how to dig deep and draw upon their experiences, skills, and mental and physical reserves to cross the finish line first. This cannot happen without lots of conscious, purposeful practice.
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.

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.
