Are you a good boss?!!

1.- Give out Effective Supervision

You cannot expect your employees to be productive if you do not provide effective supervision. Give out clear instructions, be firm in your decision, and manage your employees in such a way that you will be able to maximize their talents and skills.

2.- Encourage Good Working Relations

Aside from safety, you should also ensure that you are able to provide a positive work environment by cultivating positive work relations among your employees. You can achieve this through teambuilding seminars and activities, and by being an effective mediator between employees who have problems with each other. A peaceful and positive work environment results in employees that are more productive.

3.- Give Proper Motivation

A good boss is able to motivate his or her employees through proper methods such as rewards, recognition, favorable workers compensation and incentives. Remember, praises should be done in public while criticisms should always be kept private.

4.- Take Criticisms Constructively

Speaking of criticisms, it is important to know that just because you are a boss does not mean that you are excluded from this. In fact, expect to hear some criticisms about your work and your method of management. But do not take this negatively. Instead, use this to improve your weakness. Do not take this personally either. After all, you really cannot please everybody.

5.- Communicate with your Employees

Communication is always a two-way process and being a good boss means that you are not the only one who does all the talking. Be a good listener too. Make sure that aside from letting your employees know about your expectations, instructions, and pep talks, you also listen to what they have to say.

6.- Have a good balance between being fun and being authoritative

It is a good idea to let your employees know see the fun side of you by joking around with them or having fun. There is a time and place for that such as when you are outside the workplace. But once inside the office, you should exercise your authority and give out the necessary discipline to your employees.

A real good boss is not someone who is just pretending to be one for the sake of making profits but someone who is genuinely concerned with the welfare of his or her employees.

So i hope the below 6 tips could give you more ideas and just compare those points whether you already have all of them, if so, you are already a good boss. :) good luck!
