Listening is a skill that can benefit employees at all levels in a company, and active listening means you truly hear what someone is communicating, rather than preparing your next
comment while the speaker is still talking.
Learn to listen
When you motivate and inspire, you’re making personal connections with people and providing an example of moral behavior and skills.
Motivate and inspire
Verbal and Nonverbal Communication goes beyond simply having a conversation and includes using positive body language, setting clear expectations, being honest, and helping employees reach upper
management.
Communicate
Feedback is an effective tool for supervisors to use for motivation. Giving feedback requires good
communication and a thorough understanding of an employee’s performance and who they are as a person.
Provide feedback
An available supervisor can act as a confidante for
their employees. Supervisors can set clear office hours and relay them to the team and include an email address or phone number for questions or concerns
during the workday.
Be available
Making employee development a priority can benefit supervisors and employees alike. When employees excel and reach their goals or improve their skills, they become a more valuable asset to the company.
Focus on employee development
The supervisor facilitates that improvement via honest feedback and a supportive environment. Employee development can include:
- Increasing job-related skills
- Offering education and training opportunities
- Improving teamwork
- Improving punctuality
- Developing honesty, respect and communication skills
- Developing strengths
- Planning the employee for future roles
- Helping others with mental health issues
- Encouraging hard work, while balancing self-care
Rewards can help inspire employees to thrive in their careers. A reward can come in many forms, including monetary raises, paid time off, or more growth opportunities.
Reward achievements
A supervisor with analytical skills can look at employee strengths and weaknesses to identify problem areas and strengthen a company’s core values.
