1. Regularly affirm the work of your subordinates. Everyone likes their work to be recognized by their superiors and colleagues. Make your subordinates feel important every day so they can become more passionate about their work.
2. Encourage subordinates to take risks. Give them enough space, even room for risk-taking. You will find that subordinates at every level come up with many good ideas.
3. Maintain an honest attitude. Let your subordinates know you trust them, and encourage them to be honest with you in return. Be aware that if subordinates feel deceived, your "credibility" will be lost.
4. Give subordinates challenging opportunities. Repetitive and monotonous daily work can wear down the efficiency and passion of subordinates. To give them the best energy, assign them tasks that are full of challenges.
5. Remember that money isn't everything. Monetary rewards aren't the only motivation for encouraging subordinates. In fact, subordinates value more being praised by their superiors, personal career growth, and challenging work. Therefore, to retain your subordinates, patting them on the shoulder as a sign of encouragement may be more effective than giving them a raise.
6. Be straightforward and honest with your subordinates. Don't set vague goals for your subordinates. They want to know what your true expectations are. Use simple language to express the goals you have set, and clearly explain why you believe these goals are most helpful for doing the job well.
7. Criticize at the right place and time. Whether your subordinate's work is satisfactory or unsatisfactory, let them know in a timely manner. Don’t save all criticisms for one big session. Avoid criticizing subordinates in front of others, as this will make everyone present feel embarrassed and immediately turn colleagues into enemies.
8. Keep information channels open. Subordinates like having candid and continuous communication with their superiors and hope their superiors are empathetic. Don't only talk to your subordinates when there are problems or troubles. Provide information to your subordinates before major events happen, not after.
9. Make subordinates feel important. Let everyone feel they are indispensable members of the office. If your subordinates feel you don't make them feel important, and these people consider looking for other jobs, allow subordinates to contribute to the company and frequently ask for their opinions and suggestions.
10. Be consistent. After an event happens, subordinates hope to guess what actions their superior will take. If subordinates are always guessing what might happen, they may look for other jobs. If you are inconsistent, subordinates will get angry, feel disappointed, and frustrated.
11. Favoritism. Don't pick which subordinate is the best. Discrimination will hurt subordinates and reduce work efficiency. Treat each subordinate politely.
12. Focus on subordinates' careers. Provide information to subordinates on how they can get promoted within the company. Truly care about your subordinates, be meticulous and friendly, and always be ready to offer support and help, benefiting both the company and the employees.
13. Know how to say "no." Many times, you can't please everyone, and sometimes you must say no. How do you say it? Explain the reason for your refusal so they won't think your refusal is baseless.
