Knowing your team well
Good bosses must know the major positive and negative traits of their team members. The skill understanding, the character awareness is a must and the boss must make sure to provide opportunities to the individual to showcase those traits (mostly positive) from time to time. Its simple — track what your employees can do best and they would always make you look good. Employee productivity monitoring tools and time tracking software can help a boss understand their team well.
Lead from the front — Inspire your team members
Scout for ways to make your work look good infront of your employees. Start initiatives which they can follow and complete at their own. Maintain discipline at your level and convey the same implicitly to your employees.
Solve Problems don’t complicate them
Identify issues, listen to queries and be a problem solver. Instead of blaming your team, suggest solutions and instill confidence in your team that yes they can do it. Work on efficient task management tactics and avoid micromanagement. You will see them do wonders at work and build a productive workplace
Be approachable
Always keep doors open for employees to come to you with ideas and solutions. The workplace communication systems must be simplified. Maintain an efficient leave management system at your company and implement employee friendly measures
Distribute tasks evenly
As a great boss you need to be a great manager too. You have already identified the skilled ones at your workplace and so you know who can do what. Utilise automated attendance softwares and task management tools to simplify your work. Be at your toes to plan your office woes.
Take breaks and ask others too
As a boss you need vacations and breaks too. So plan the due ones and relax. If a boss works continuously without breaks that unknowingly sets the same expectations from employees too. Breaks at the right duration always work to enhance the productivity of your employees.
