Manage Promises, Not People

How To Create A Self-Managing Team

 

2 Day Leadership Training for Supervisors

 

A supervisor’s primary role is managing the workflow and performance of a department. In reality, day-to-day activities and “firefighting” distract managers from successfully achieving their primary objectives as supervisors. Many put off coaching conversations and fail to address performance issues.

This contributes to the development of an “Abdication of Accountability” environment, where performing employees have more work and less time and underperforming employees have less work and more time.

As a result, team performance, morale, and communication decline.

So, how can you develop and lead a self-managing team?

Effective leadership training teaches supervisors to manage a promise and not a person. A self-managing team allows the manager to focus on what’s most important: coaching, strategic planning, and growth.
