How to Walkrepparttar L.I.N.E of Effective Management Sheri A. Callahan, Horizon Consulting Group, LLC 803-606-3650 Keynote Addresses * Training * Performance Consulting www.onthehorizon.net

Management is no easy task. As managers, we dedicate ourselves to managing all ofrepparttar 105243 responsibilities that we are handed down. There are a host of reports, budgets, conference calls, policies, procedures, analysis, hiring, firing, documentation andrepparttar 105244 list goes on and on and on. How is this humanly possible? Have managers been forced to accept that in today’s economy corporate America requires that we all work two jobs forrepparttar 105245 price of one? I would venture to guess that it has been accepted as a “new challenge” for those managers that want to retain employment.

These circumstances then begrepparttar 105246 question, “Who is managingrepparttar 105247 people?” Where do we findrepparttar 105248 time and what can we do to berepparttar 105249 most effective managers? The answer must first be qualified by saying; we can’t simply hope that our staff can manage themselves or each other. After all, as managers our first priority must always be to manage our people. Yes, we do lead first. We do mentor, guide, direct and coach, but ultimately as managers it is our responsibility to managerepparttar 105250 people that in turn manage their tasks and priorities. In taking that role we also ultimately agree to play a number of other roles. I offer to you that there is a specific L.I.N.E. that managers can walk to getrepparttar 105251 most out of their staff.

There are truly four job titles that we must take on to meetrepparttar 105252 needs of any department. This applies to not onlyrepparttar 105253 people we manage, but in our personal lives as well. Think back to most effective manager you have worked for in your career. Was he/she able to mentorrepparttar 105254 staff, be inquisitive, listen to needs and concerns, and always seek fair and/or creative solutions? Ifrepparttar 105255 answer is yes, then your boss understoodrepparttar 105256 value of walkingrepparttar 105257 L.I.N.E. How about you?
