CONCLUSION
A positive attitude
As a manager you are very much dependent of having a good relation to your staff members.
A positive attitude to yourself and to people around you is the necessary base for
success.
Relation building
The first four minutes are the most important for relation building. Make sure you use
these minutes as well as possible. What you haven't achieved in these 4 minutes is often
very difficult to repair later.
A Personal Leadership Style
Your leadership style should depend on yourself, but remember that your staff members have
varying levels of competence and commitment which vary not only from person to person but
also from task to task and from day to day. Try to assess competence and commitment and
adapt your style of leadership to that.
Motivation
Low motivation in work can be understood and also helped if you have a good personal
relation to your staff members. It is only when your staff member is willing to tell you
what his problem is, that you can help him.
Pacing
Pacing to adapt yourself to another persons way of being is generally the simplest way to
come on good terms with a person.
Stress
Some stress is normal and positive. It keeps us going and helps us achieve our goals. Too
much stress can however, be destructive, both mentally as well as physically. Identifying
and evaluating the reasons is normally the best way to get out of it.
Conflicts
Conflicts can lead to that people get angry. They can also lead to people submitting
themselves, even if they think that they are right. A better way is "assertion",
which means that you control your eventual anger, but also refuse to submit yourself.
Instead you stand calm and firm. Solve the problems over facts, rather than with strong
feelings.
GOOD LUCK!
GOOD MANAGEMENT!
Take good care of your people.
