Being Remembered

If you want to remembered as being a great manager, here are a few pointers -

1. Lead by example.  Arrive early and leave late.  If you expect your employees to go the extra mile you need to set the example first.
2. Give credit where its due.  Your employees did the assignment, filled the order on time and  achieved the result.  Let them take the rewards and the thanks for a job well done.  You won't regret it.
3. Be flexible.  Similar to lead by example - be flexible with the time you give to your employees.  Whether it is arriving late or leaving early be flexible.  If you lead by example and people are aware of what is required of them then there should be no issues with this one.

The easiest way to remember this is by living out the golden rule -

'do to others as you would have them do to you'.
