Because we can only hope to achieve our team goals if we break them down to individuals.

Fourth, form a wolf-like team.

How to be a good manager?

1. Respect your colleagues and have the grace to listen to and accept the opinions of others.

Think of your colleagues and subordinates as brothers and sisters, who are together for the same goal and work. If you want them to support you, you must first respect, understand, and support your colleagues, no matter what the occasion, you must first let them give full play to their abilities or express their opinions, in the case of their own opinions, you must listen carefully to different opinions, on the basis of fully absorbing opinions, and finally express your opinions or adopt the best suggestions from them, to improve and perfect your work, so that they will feel that you respect them very much.

Second, trust first.

Don't do it from head to toe, or too many details will obscure the real focus, and your subordinates will never learn to do things on their own. Many leaders are accustomed to believing in themselves, not trusting the abilities of others, and often interfering in the work process of others impolitely, which can be a common problem of all poor leaders. The problem is that this disease will form a strange circle: the boss likes to manage from head to toe, and the more he manages, the more he becomes hands-on, arbitrary, and suspicious; At the same time, subordinates are becoming more and more constrained, developing the habit of dependence, conformity, and closure, and exhausting the most valuable initiative and creativity. After a long time, their subordinates will get mentally handicapped.

3. Encouragement and praise are far more important than strict requirements.

Praise your colleagues and subordinates for everything that can be praised, openly express your praise and encouragement to them, and the results you hope to achieve can only be obtained through your praise; Criticism should be carried out individually or privately, as far as possible, in the form of suggestions, so that they themselves have a desire to change their shortcomings, and people cannot be changed by others, but can only make up for their own changes.

4. Empowerment is the best way to cultivate others and achieve oneself.

Empowerment is a kind of investment, not only to give others the opportunity to grow talents, but also to their own ability to cultivate and invest, subordinates have growth, will help you grasp the overall affairs more easily, more energy to focus on the key areas of work, so that the overall work is more productive, the growth of ability is a natural result, effective delegation is a major secret of professional success. Employees work under a leadership that is willing to empower, like a blank sheet of paper under the artist's pen, no matter what the paper is, the artist always paints a beautiful picture. It is okay to bow down to everything occasionally, but it is impossible for a person who must bow to everything to become an excellent leader, and only a leader who is willing to delegate is an excellent leader by reasonably and effectively authorizing a win-win situation with his subordinates.

5. Smile genuinely at everyone and have a positive attitude towards everything.

Smile is a major feature of self-confidence, no matter how great the pressure of work is, as a good leader, we must learn to keep smiling at everyone, so as to convey confidence in work, so that everyone can work in a happy mood and give full play to their ability.

Sixth, focus on each person's advantages, grace and power.

First of all, we must sincerely understand, care and thank our colleagues and subordinates, and do not rush to achieve results at the beginning of our tenure. It is necessary to replace blame with care, cultivate tacit understanding with understanding, and seek support with gratitude. Be more considerate, more harmonious, more understanding, and more tolerant to your subordinates and colleagues. Do treat your colleagues or subordinates with gratitude, because, without their care, support and help, it may not be possible to have your status and achievements today, so take "thank you" as the two words you use most frequently, and thank them in person for every support and help, every effort and progress. A good leader must have both virtue and authority in order to manage his jurisdiction well, if you only give small favors without authority, your subordinates will be like a group of children who have grown up in doting and do not listen to teachings, and they are unlikely to become useful people in the future. On the other hand, if you take a stern attitude towards everything, you may be able to make people obey on the surface, but you will never be convinced, and it will be difficult for things to go smoothly. If it is too strict, it will often lead to the subordinates being cringe, superficially obedient, and actually confrontational, with no autonomy and lack of interest in things. As a result, not only will the human resources not be able to be used effectively, but the entire organization will also be lifeless.

7. Take the discussion behind it calmly.

1.Good intentions, remember that people can't pay too much attention to themselves, as a leader should be even more so, always keep a subtle and low-key in the praise of others, and the praise of others should be the spur and motivation for you to keep forging ahead and strive for greater results.

2.Neutral and objective arguments that are more arbitrary but true. Just like a mirror, listening to more of this kind of discussion is more conducive to self-appreciation. Human beings have a weakness, that is, it is easier to know others than to know oneself, and it takes not only wisdom but also courage to truly know oneself.

3.In the case of malicious slander, there are always some people with ulterior motives who deliberately create rumors and maliciously slander them in order to achieve their ulterior motives. Of course, we should have a benevolent heart, and we should always repay the good with the good; We must be tolerant and patient with our mistakes, but we must not be without precautions against deliberate harm. The solution is to sit upright, and the body is not afraid of shadows. If you are conscientious, hardworking, and have made achievements with your own unremitting efforts, naturally some rumors will be self-defeating, because the eyes of the masses are clear.

8. Learn to control your emotions and throw your temper in the trash.

Everyone knows the allusion of Guan Yu's "carelessness in Jingzhou", and it is better to say that he is careless, but it is better to say that his emotions are mismanaged, and even arrogant. It's not wise to let your emotions influence your work. You should learn to control your emotions, turn your anger into constructive work, avoid getting angry, and try to keep your mind calm. At the same time, try to control your temper and don't take your anger out on your colleagues, which is a foolish act to ask for trouble. No one wants to work with someone who is emotional, and the boss will not let him take on the heavy responsibilities of such a person.

Establishing an easy-going, empathetic image for yourself is an important factor in successful leadership.

Therefore, in any case, at any time, you should not lose your temper with your subordinates and colleagues, this can only show your incompetence, they are here to work, not to be angry, especially not to be angry with you, they should always get encouragement and positive encouragement from you, including a part of kindness and correction, and never the object of venting.

9. Use a good way of speaking.

When arranging work, use more request or suggestion language instead of imperative language (use more "excuse me", "is it please", "thank you").

When criticizing, you must not use hurtful language against anyone. To know that the purpose of criticism is to make others accept the correct opinion, not to vent one's own emotions, and to use: ask + listen + speak. Or: praise + criticism + affirmation of this language structure, others will think that you are convincing people with reason, rather than oppressing people with power.
