Course Description
Managers need to support their employees and assist them in a variety of ways. This support can be shown by answering questions, providing additional training or instruction, eliminating roadblocks, and simply by thanking the employees for their persistence and hard work. This support helps the employees develop their skills and increase their knowledge which will enable the employee to work independently. The manager must set goals with their employees to measure their success and performance level. Goals should be set with the input of the employee to ensure that the goals are understood, measurable, and attainable. Goals should be reviewed periodically, adjusted as needed, supported if required, and rewarded through fairly disbursed incentives. These incentives create future drive to attain existing and newly established goals and shows appreciation for the work done.
