Description

Managing people is both an art and a science. There are certainly well-defined legal and procedural guidelines for managers and companies to hire, fire, discipline, and evaluate employees (the science.) What’s often more elusive is the “art” of managing people; the skill to engage the full potential of employees for the mutual benefit of the employee and the business. 

The Empowering Work Relationships Toolkit is a step-by-step guide for business owners, managers and team/project leaders to develop healthy work relationships based on accountability, respect and trust. Managers teach their teams to produce results through shared expectations, agreement and accountability in an environment of well-being. This webinar will help you develop these skills and establish a consistent management style throughout your organization. 

Empowering Work Relationships Toolkit 

The employees of any company are its greatest asset. In some companies, employee talent is underutilized, resulting in a lack of engagement among the employees and an atmosphere that lacks enthusiasm and wholehearted participation. 

Managers are often hired with the expectation that they are skilled in establishing and maintaining good working relationships that bring out the best in their reporting employees. But if you ask any manager what management system they use, they will most likely look at you with a blank stare. Most managers “manage”! They get by using their own personal style of management. Some managers are naturally better at this than others. And no matter how gifted a manager is, there is an advantage to having all managers in an organization using a consistent management “system” that clearly states expectations and standards for delivering work. 

Managers benefit when there is an explicit “system” that backs up their personal management style because it creates clarity for all involved about how things will work and what to expect when things don’t go as planned. Employees benefit because they know from the start what they’ve signed up for and how to get help if they need it. 

EWR Toolkit Benefits 

The Empowering Work Relationships Toolkit offer managers the know-how to cultivate a consistent style of company-wide management that: 

• Promotes trust 
• Assists in effective workload management 
• Lessens stress 
• Maximizes the potential and enhances the productivity of company staff 
• Reduces turnover and training costs 
• Establishes an environment of shared expectations, accountability, and predictable results 
• Develops accountable teams that are effective at producing results 

Empowering Work Relationships People Management Toolkit Learning Outcomes 

Managers will learn: 

• Skills and process for initiating healthy relationships with employees 
• How to build a foundation of trust and safety that will facilitate honest communication and maximize an employee’s contribution to the organization 
• How to deliver the full range of feedback, (what’s working and what’s not working,) in a way that supports the continuing improvement and professional development of employees 
• Techniques and process to maintain healthy ongoing work relationships that produce effective results 

Don’t leave it to chance and expect that managers automatically know how to get results from the people they manage. In fact, this is more often not the case. What’s usually missing is a foundation of clarity and agreement in the manager/employee relationship that lays the groundwork for employee success and predictable workplace outcomes. This Empowering Work Relationships People Management Toolkit along with a dash of inspiration gives managers the framework for exceeding expectations.
