Comment Communication Adaptation (Score 0) 763
There have been a lot of posts about "do this" or "do that" and there are a lot of them that apply universally.
I find though that one of them most overlooked items is the communication style that's used. To be a successful manager, you need to learn how to adapt your communication style to each of the individuals. Some people need to be pumped up, some need to be challenged, and some just need to be pointed in the right direction.
Most of all though, you need to make sure that they know when they've done a good (or great) job because when they know when they did well, they can (usually) repeat it in the future.
