Farrah finds herself as a new manager. Eager to do that job well and manage those under her successfully. She also wants those who are her direct reports to know their pathway up the ladder as well.

5 steps to becoming a better manager:

  1. Get to know your employees. This means getting to know them on a personal and professional level. What are their goals? What are their strengths and weaknesses? What motivates them? The more you know about your employees, the better you'll be able to support them and help them succeed.
  2. Communicate effectively. This means being clear and concise in your communication, both verbally and in writing. It also means being a good listener and being open to feedback.
  3. Set clear expectations. Make sure your employees know what is expected of them in terms of their work, their behavior, and their contributions to the team.
  4. Provide regular feedback. Feedback is essential for helping employees grow and develop. Be sure to give both positive and constructive feedback, and be specific about what you are seeing and how it can be improved.
  5. Be a leader, not just a manager. A leader is someone who inspires and motivates others. They set a positive example and create a culture of trust and respect. If you want to be a better manager, focus on becoming a better leader.

Here are some additional tips for becoming a better manager:

  • Be adaptable and willing to change. The world of work is constantly changing, so you need to be able to adapt your management style accordingly.
  • Be patient and understanding. Managing people is not always easy, and there will be times when you need to be patient and understanding.
  • Be self-aware. Take the time to reflect on your own strengths and weaknesses as a manager. This will help you identify areas where you can improve.
  • Be open to feedback. Ask your employees for feedback on your performance as a manager. This can help you identify areas where you can improve.

Becoming a better manager takes time and effort, but it is worth it. By following these tips, you can improve your skills and become a more effective leader.
