Features: Managing employees is both a skill and an art. You cannot act condescendingly or bark orders at them just because you are in a leadership position. Nor can you be ineffective to the point where subordinates look down on you and don’t take you seriously. With the right methods and techniques, you can be both approachable and friendly while maintaining authority and discipline. You can make your subordinates and employees feel that you are a leader they can follow and dedicate themselves to. Managing employees is not about suppressing them but about fostering their growth; it is not about making them blindly obey but about enabling them to work independently. This is the fundamental starting point for all management techniques. Adhering to this principle, this book provides comprehensive methods for managers at all levels to manage employees: from identifying their strengths to motivating them; from resolving various conflicts among employees to engaging in constructive communication with them. It offers numerous effective guidance methods to help managers handle real-world management situations and build a harmonious and efficient team.
