| Sometimes I feel like somebody's waaatchin' meeee... |
Hey, Supervisors/Managers- Are you micro-managing your employees??? Well...STOP THAT!! I know there are some employees that slack & they may need to be monitored closer than others, but seriously, to watch all of your employees' every move is not only unnecessary but it is also time-consuming & time-wasting! There is sooo much that YOU as a supervisor could get done if you're not timing all of your employees' breaks, phone calls...beats between breathes! If you are a micro-manager, you may be in danger of causing your faithful workers to fall into what's called (cause I just called it this) "The Teenage Rebel Syndrome" (TTRS). This is just like when a parent is too hard/restrictive on their kid & the otherwise trustworthy kid starts sneaking around because they feel like they're being forced to in order to have any freedom. Happy employees are more productive & honest. If you're not always down their throat & you treat them like adults, they'll want to do a good job for you because they respect you & want to keep YOU happy! So just chill! Sit back & relax! Choose your battles wisely! Reprimand as needed & not just when you brought your baggage to work and want to go on a Power Trip! The biggest point to remember: Everyone has NOT been a supervisor/manager, but we've ALL been employees! ***Don't forget from whenst you came!***
