Let us look at couple of traits that separates a great manager from an average one

We have all heard of or seen managers whom everyone likes working for, and then there are those who just make the lives of their team members a nightmare.

Employee Engagement :

According to Gallup, managers account for at least 70% of the variance in employee engagement. Do you keep your employees engaged? The book “How the Way We Talk Can Change the Way We Work” describes employee engagement as being ‘your whole self’ at work. It’s the ‘above and beyond’ efforts that employees bring to the workplace. Ensuring this is whatgreat managers’ roles and responsibilities entail.

Processes over Results :

Remember, people leave managers, not companies. So, if you are certain about keeping your best people around, become the best that you can possibly be. Make “fail harder,fail faster” a central principle of modern business change management. The freedom to take risks allows teams to work on projects faster along with helping employees feel moreconfident and take on responsibilities without any fear.

Above all, an exceptional manager comes to know and value the quirks and abilities of their employees. They figure out how to capitalize on their team’s strengths and tweak their environment to meet the larger goals.By taking the time to understand what makes each employee tick, a great manager shows that they see their people for who they are. This personal investment motivates not only individuals but the entire teamas well, thereby shaking the existing hierarchies and leading to a better workplace.

First Time Managers –Opportunity or Challenge?

Seasoned professionals will agree that managing people is hard. Sure, you learn a lot while doing it: how to advocate for yourself and others, and how to organize your calendar like a pro and how to navigate uncomfortable situations. However,as a first-time manager, you may feel that all you end up doing isdelegating work and overseeing people, thus leaving you with a constant emotion of dissatisfaction, insecurity and anxiety.

Here are a few things that can help you gain more awareness and play the role of a first-time manager more responsibly:

Successful Manager – Is there a secret sauce?

Effective leadership strategies can help improve the morale of those you manage, increase your team's productivity and support your management efforts. For a business to truly succeed, it is important for their leaders to always seek new professional development opportunities and to identify areas where they can improve.

Let’s look at the secret sauce behind successful managers & understand how these can also improve our capabilities as a manager.

Charisma:

It is a real, tangible, measurable trait that can help you get the best out of others. Charismatic leadership inspires people to do great things in order to feel great about themselves. Managers who can do that can achieve a lot more. And the only way to be charismatic is by being authentic and more impactful in the way we present ourselves; by having a cause or purpose that our people want to buy into and dedicate their hard work for. Through communication that reflects genuine warmth and care, you can make your case compellingand get everyone onboard.

Resilience :

To build resilience in their teams, managers need to remain positive, demonstrate positive energy, and show great care to their people, doing whatever they can to help them – going the extra mile to enable the employees to do what they must in the current circumstances. But giving others strength and resilience starts with looking after yourself. You cannot have realistic optimismor encourage perseverance in others if you won’t be able to build strength within yourself. The more you take care of yourself, the more you can take care of others.

Empathy :

Trust is in short supply nowadays. Given the current work culture, many employees end up wondering if their bosses truly want their betterment. So managers have to think very hard about how they can build and maintain trust, not just among the customers, but their internal teams as well. There lies the need to verbalise things more than ever before in order to be empathetic, understand what people need, take steps to help them, and get the best out of them.

Communication :

In the age of remote economy, communication skills have never been more important for keeping teams engaged. Lack of engagement among team is bad for business, so you should aim to build and retain a sense of team, community and belonging. Finding time to stay in touch and talk through issues either as a team or one-on-one takes a lot of effort. But when you communicate, try to remain hopeful and positive without becoming too overbearing.

Alignment :

Effective managers constantly seek to improve business processes. By aligning employee needs, business goals and core values, they can create intentional teams equipped to promote the priorities of the business. Managers who look for these opportunities can attract the attention of their supervisors, who see the value managers place in performing their jobs well. Alignment can also help boost productivity, improve morale, and promote better business practices.

Leadership :

Another behaviour we might see from effective managers is their ability to lead by example. Managers can cultivate healthy workplaces by demonstrating the qualities they want to see within their teams. Kindness, appreciation, care, and trust are all values that leaders can encourage their teams to emulate. However, at the same time, it is important for managers to create realistic standards for their teams and to never expect behaviour that they themselves cannot exhibit.

Openness :

Being open to feedback is another healthy behaviour that managers should demonstrate in their day-to-day life. This shows that you care about others' perception of you and want to improve in ways that are beneficial for your team and their needs.
