Are you a leader looking to improve your management skills? Effective management is the cornerstone of a productive and harmonious workplace. Here are five essential tips to guide you on your journey: √ Clear Communication: Regularly connect with your team through one-on-one meetings and group discussions. Be a good listener, offer constructive feedback, and ensure everyone is aligned with the team's goals. √ Delegate Wisely: Delegation is about empowering your team members and optimizing resources. Assign tasks based on strengths, provide clear instructions, and set expectations. Trust your team to deliver and provide support when needed. √ Time Management: Efficiently manage your time to lead by example. Prioritize tasks, use productivity techniques, and encourage your team to do the same. A well-organized leader inspires the same behaviour in their team. √ Conflict Resolution: Conflicts are inevitable, but how you address them matters. Foster a culture of open dialogue and respect. When conflicts arise, address them promptly, and objectively, and seek solutions that benefit all parties. √ Continuous Learning: A successful manager is always learning and growing. Stay updated on industry trends, management strategies, and leadership theories. Invest in your professional development and inspire your team to do the same. *Remember, effective management is a journey, not a destination. By nurturing your skills and building strong relationships with your team, you can create an environment that promotes growth, productivity, and collaboration. #ManagementTips #LeadershipSkills #EffectiveManagement #ProfessionalDevelopment #CreativeSecretary

It can be such a great feeling of joy when you hit that important career milestone of moving from individual contributor to manager. You have proven to be an asset to your company, and they are now rewarding you with a management position over people. Yay! The reality for many after they settle into the new position is, YIKES! How do I do all of this and who is going to show me the ropes? Outside of being a content expert, which is what probably got you promoted, there is not a lot of knowledge transfer from your individual contributor position that will help you become a strong leader of talent development. For some, they will be lucky and have a natural gift of leading others, but according to Forbes, 60% of new managers fail within the first 24 months. Let that sink in for a minute. 6 out of 10 new managers have the likelihood to fail within the first two years of their promotion. So many companies give their new promotes keys to the house but no manual on how to operate the house. It is assumed that because they were so darn good at their previous job that they will just "figure it out." In our latest blog, Katherine Cox and I explore how to create a successful transition from individual contributor to manager. Tomorrow Build Your Alliance LLC will officially launch our 14 courses on Developing Your New Managers, which were created to help companies ensure their new promotes create critical skills within areas like: 🌟 The Mindset of the Successful New Manager 🌟 Identifying New Talent 🌟 Preparing for Crucial Conversations 🌟 Establishing and Maintaining Connections 🌟 Coaching Your People Through Change https://lnkd.in/gifqEUg5 #newmanagers #leadershipdevelopment #peoplemanagement #management #managers #leadershipbasics #positiveleadership

New managers need to shift their identity from high performer to delivering through others, quickly understand what is required for success, and adapt to demonstrate new behaviors in a new context skillfully. 60% of new managers fail within the first 24 months in their new role, according to research from CEB Global. Transition failures happen because new leaders either misunderstand the essential demands of the situation or lack the skill and flexibility to adapt to them. That’s a staggering number, and the consequences of those failures reverberate throughout the organization, often with a long-lasting impact. Managers have an outsized influence on their team members while being key players in nurturing the organization’s culture. When a transitioning leader is struggling, their direct reports perform 15% worse on average than those who report to a high-performing manager. They’re also 20% likelier to leave the organization or be disengaged, according to the Gartner consulting firm. We all know people don’t leave bad companies, they leave bad managers. Custom development opportunities to help each new manager build and practice the specific skills they need in order to spark success for them, their team, and the organization. There are four skills every new manager must master: *Self-awareness - creates leaders who are more effective, employees who are more satisfied, and companies that are more profitable *Communication *Influence *Agility Additional ways to build personalization into foundational management programs: Choice - To ensure learners are getting the content most relevant to them in the moment, empower them to think critically about their learning needs and to choose the content they need.  Assessment - To ensure that learning is prioritized for each learner and training waste is minimized Less is More - Pare down the number of learning objectives and concepts to free up time for exercises that ask learners to apply the concepts to their unique situations. Coaching - helpful in navigating the identity shift from high performer to delivering through others, as the issues are unique and new managers need to answer for themselves. Social Learning - Discussing new concepts with others is an effective way to personalize learning while facilitating transfer from the class to the workplace. #people #human #management #managing #improvingoneself #personalizingmanagement #coaching #mentoring #assesment #selfawareness #sociallearning #WilliamArruda #forbes

I am pleased to share my thoughts on 'accidental managers' in this article for People Management magazine by Mahalia M. following a recent survey by Chartered Management Institute. Given the impact managers can have, it is critical that organisations select the right people and invest in their development much earlier in their journey. #accidentalmanagers #leadershipselection #leadershipdevelopment #peoplemanagement

If you've ever heard me speak or write about management, you've likely heard this phrase: "Management is not something that gets in the way of your responsibilities, management is your responsibility!" If you manage anyone - even one person, read that again. Management is hard. That’s a fact. But it’s also one of the most important parts of running a successful business. Whether its managing your team or teaching others on your team how to be good managers, if you aren’t able to do it well, you’ll never reach your full potential as a business or a business owner. I think that so many times, first-time managers get promoted to the role, but don't get enough support or training on how to actually manage people to do their best work. They aren't taught how to: - Hear more than just what's being said. - Hold someone accountable for doing a good job. - Coach. - Get buy-in on the company's objectives. Effective management goes beyond delegating tasks and monitoring performance. It involves understanding people, motivating them, and aligning their personal goals with the company's vision. It's about creating an environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to their fullest potential. Management training for your team is not just a cost; it's an investment in the future of your business. Because when managers succeed, teams succeed—and so does the business. Let's change the narrative around management. Let's make it a priority to equip managers with the tools, skills, and mindset they need to lead effectively. Because in the end, good management is at the heart of any successful organization. What has been your experience with management, and what do you think makes a good manager? I'd love to hear your thoughts and stories. #management #leadership #businessgrowth #teamdevelopment
