1. Harder for the other person to improve quickly

2. They may not realise that they are missing expectations

3. You are not really treating them fairly if they are underperforming or have poor behaviours
I share 4 key ways to give negative feedback without offending or upsetting the other person which maximised the chances they will take action.
---
---
How to give feedback has to start with your mindset and approach. The whole purpose of giving corrective feedback to get action and improvement from the other person. To do this, they need to listen to what you say, take it in, understand it and then be committed to actioning it.
You massively improve the chances of all this happening when you give feedback with the genuine aim of helping and improving the other person.
Next, we go through what to cover when giving feedback to employees. You have to make your negative feedback as useful as possible. You also want to avoid having lots of difficult conversations.
How to give critical feedback to an employee starts with being specific. You must describe what the employee did in some detail, so they know exactly what they did wrong. Giving critical feedback doesn’t have to be an ordeal for both parties when you know how to approach the conversation. I share key ways to give critical feedback.
Don’t make the corrective feedback about the person. Make the critical feedback about what they did or didn’t do.
Finally, try to avoid stating your opinion when giving feedback effectively. Aim to use examples and evidence rather than you opinion. I explain how to do this so you are clear on the difference and provide examples.

Find out more here https://enhance.training/lp/manage-difficult-people-usp015/ --- The first people problem managers can’t ignore is bullying and any behaviour intended to put others down.

This drop in performance can be quick and dramatic with these people problems at work. Always take actions quickly to stop any form of bullying in your team. It is one of the worst people problems that impact performance. The second of the people problems to always look out for is individual undermining team members or you. Undermining can take many forms – usually a pattern of behaviour to attack another person credibility, confidence, standing etc. Use an escalating set of steps to make it unappealing for undermining to happen in your team. The third of the people problems managers need to spot is individuals taking credit for others work. This behaviour damages trust, relationships and teamwork. For those take credit for others work, they may get short term gains, but they nearly always lose out long term. Demonstrate how to give credit by praising good work, ideas and actions across your team publicly. Don’t put up with team member unfairly taking credit. Fourth of the people problems that kill team performance is no or poor communication. Communication is at the heart of relationships, co-ordination, collaboration, teamwork, solution building and more. I share 7 actions to encourage more communication within your teams. Help coach team members who struggle to communicating and give them opportunities to practice. Fifth of the damaging people problems for managers is conflicts between team members. Conflicts can arise for all sorts of reasons. Often it is not the fault of those in conflict. As a manager you are very well placed to help all parties resolve conflicts quickly, fairly and openly.

Clear goals, objective measurement of progress and visibility is great in creating accountability. Work out how you track progress against team and individual goals and share this progress. How great leaders hold staff accountable includes undertaking a lot of follow-up and providing a lot of feedback. Both activities provide a lot of guidance and support and well as communicating exactly where each employee stands. Finally, in holding employees accountable, create clear consequences for missing goals and expectations and for beating goals and expectations. If there are no consequences for either, there will be little accountability. How to hold your team accountable requires the continuous application of all 5 elements. Miss one and your team and team members will not be nearly as accountable. Don’t let accountability slip through the cracks.

These are the best actions you can take for how to be more productive at work as a manager. ---- ---- To boost your productivity at work an obvious tip is to put time and effort into planning and organising.

Reasons Staff Perform Badly – How To Handle Poor Performers 9:17

10 weeks前9:17

9:17

In my experience, there are 4 main reasons that staff perform badly. To learn how to handle poor performers and to be a lot more successful in managing teams, the actions you take should address each of these reasons. Remove poor performance from your team fairly, quickly and cheaply. --- --- Most workplaces are so busy with so many initiatives happening at any given time, it is really easy for team members to be unsure of what exactly they should be focusing on. An equal number of employees receive very confusing or contradictory messages from bosses about what is expected of them. Too few managers spend enough time communicating to their teams exactly what they expect of their employees and reinforcing those expectations with their own decisions, actions and behaviours. Spend more time that you think you need communicating goals and expectations to both the team and individuals. Another of the reasons staff perform poorly is they don’t know or accept they are under performing. 43% of managers find giving corrective feedback to employees stressful and an unpleasant experience (2700+ leaders surveyed). I also know from personal experience that really good managers provide feedback all the time – every single day. Providing useful specific feedback means that every staff member knows exactly what their boss thinks of their performance and why. This reduces the reasons why employees perform poorly. Staff are grateful for their bosses feedback, even when they are below expectations. A key part of performance management is to make sure your team know exactly what they are doing well and not so well, week in week out. Another of the reasons why employees perform badly is that employees don’t know how to improve what they do. Ideally staff would be good at self-learning and good at motivating themselves to improve and you would have good employee performance. A key action when managing poor performing employees is to teach them exactly what they need to do to improve. If staff don’t really know exactly how to improve, this could be why you have poor performing employees. Finally, on of the reasons why you have poor performing employees might be they don’t want to perform better. There are so many reasons that drive anger and frustration that lead to lack of will to do better as well as a multitude of character flaws that can also stop an individual improving. An important action when managing poor performance at work is to find out why a person doesn’t want to improve. When you know what the problem is, you have a much better chance of improving the situation.

How to ask great questions as a leader is a skill that you can absolutely build no matter where you are today. Asking great questions as a leader gives you knowledge, insights, action, direction, opportunity, feedback, trust, and more Take these 8 actions to keep asking better and better questions as a leader at work ---- --- How to ask good questions? What are great questions to ask? Great questions get the other person thinking. There is a good pause before they speak, and you can see them deep in thought. Great questions give you the information or insights you seek. Ask great questions and you often get action in the other person, or you feel you can now take action. As a leader, you cannot and should not know everything nor be an expert in everything. Even if it were possible, it would be a long way from sensible. A leader harnesses the skills and expertise of others to create better results or outcomes for the group. To enable the leader to harness the skills of others and do it very well, that leader needs to know a lot about the person, their skills and how best to use them in a given situation. Being able to ask great questions is how they gain all this information. Good leaders ask great questions all the time. Leaders and managers are ten times more likely to ask good questions if they develop a curious mindset. Be interested in everything going on in your team and you will naturally ask a lot of questions. Asking questions is one thing. Asking great questions with a purpose is another. Make the time to figure out what are the main levers for business success or what are the main issue behind team member behaviour and actions. Then ask questions with these in mind. Great questions are usually a series of related questions. One builds on the previous question. You are digging into the detail or situation so you can try to understand what is going on and more importantly why. How you ask questions matters. The words you use are important. Your tone and pace of voice, your facial expressions and body language are even more important. Be conscious of how your non-verbal communication is impacting the other person. Asking questions is only useful if you listen to what you are being told. Listening is a lot more than just hearing the words being spoken. Finally, asking great questions is a skill and to get good at skills, you need to practice.

How to give corrective feedback to an employee is a scary prospect when you don’t know how to do it or when you have had bad reactions with previous attempts If you don’t provide critical feedback, then it will be: 1. Harder for the other person to improve quickly 2. They may not realise that they are missing expectations 3. You are not really treating them fairly if they are underperforming or have poor behaviours I share 4 key ways to give negative feedback without offending or upsetting the other person which maximised the chances they will take action. --- --- How to give feedback has to start with your mindset and approach. The whole purpose of giving corrective feedback to get action and improvement from the other person. To do this, they need to listen to what you say, take it in, understand it and then be committed to actioning it. You massively improve the chances of all this happening when you give feedback with the genuine aim of helping and improving the other person. Next, we go through what to cover when giving feedback to employees. You have to make your negative feedback as useful as possible. You also want to avoid having lots of difficult conversations.

Giving critical feedback doesn’t have to be an ordeal for both parties when you know how to approach the conversation. I share key ways to give critical feedback. Don’t make the corrective feedback about the person. Make the critical feedback about what they did or didn’t do. Finally, try to avoid stating your opinion when giving feedback effectively. Aim to use examples and evidence rather than you opinion. I explain how to do this so you are clear on the difference and provide examples.
