When managers enter the office among employees, they have the power to actively change the attitude of employees throughout the day.
Words, gestures, and even your facial expressions make all the difference in how employees perceive your thoughts. These unconscious actions show what an employee means to you and how valuable it is to you and your company as a manager.
Making employees feel they need it is a key factor in maintaining their maximum morale and motivation. When employees feel that they are playing an important role in the company through their work, they are much more likely to say they like their work and try to improve it. For many, feeling valued is just as important as a high salary and promotion.
Gain momentum with these tactics:
1.Let them feel your presence.
Announcing your arrival is a great way to motivate your employees and rejuvenate them during the first hour of the day. You can make all the difference in the world just by going through the door and saying good morning with a smile.
2.Verbal Acknowledgement.
This kind of recognition doesn't have to be overly dramatic. Most of the time, it's easy and effective to show your employees respect by saying something simple like "please" or "thank you." or "You did a great job." Verbal praise certainly helps motivate employees when they deserve it.
3.Formulate clear expectations.
Communicating deadlines, milestones, and work goals is essential to effectively completing company assignments. These things are very often reported, but subject to change. These changes may not be explained in detail, so employees will feel that they are not important enough to know why the changes are being made, or that the manager has made a mistake. None of these ideas lead to motivated employees. One way to prevent this is to always ask employees for some form of work feedback. That way, employees can be confident that they know what they are expecting. If there is a change in the project, let your employees know why. Keep them as part of your problem resolution.
4.Provide regular feedback.
When employees are doing a good job, please let them know. On the other hand, if you are not satisfied with the result, please let the employee know and explain why. This is a great opportunity to let employees know that they can do better next time. As a manager, ask your employees if there is anything they can do to help with the change. Receive feedback from employees. Talk about it and enjoy the real discussion. This makes employees feel like you're not angry at work, but you're really worried and willing to help you solve the problem.
5.Generate consequences.
Don't just tell your employees that you're happy with your work; also thank them for their good work. A personally written thank-you card is an effective and inexpensive way to do this. If employees do not live up to the expectations of the company, they will discourage other employees. After all, you might wonder, "If not, why should I do it?" That's why it's so important to communicate the results to those who aren't doing well.
The staff loves to work with you, and you will enjoy working with them as long as you take a few minutes a day to soothe their emotions. Spend time with your employees during and after work. Show them that you care and value them as important members of the company.
