Your employees are the biggest asset you have. Their performance and attitude can result in the success or failure of your business. The most difficult part of any manager's job is people management. He or she is required to,
a) Lead
b) Motivate
c) Train
d) Inspire
e) Encourage.
On the other hand, he or she is also responsible
for hiring, firing, disciplining, training and evaluating. These functions seem
to be at odds, but a successful manager can integrate both the positive and
negative aspects of these tasks to create a positive, productive work
force.
People management, also known as human resource management (HRM), encompasses
the tasks of recruitment, management, and providing ongoing support and
direction for the employees of an organization. These tasks can include the
following: compensation, hiring, performance management, organization
development, safety, wellness, benefits, employee motivation, communication,
administration, and training.
When managing the people within an organization, a
manager must focus on both hiring the right people and then getting the most
out of these people. New personnel must provide the organization with the best
talent available that meets the needs of the business. The organization must
look ahead to how a new employee can be used to their fullest. Getting the most
out of an employee means a business has consistent policies and practices in
place to provide its people with appropriate training and development.
Employees are involved as "partners" in the business.
Probably the most important task a manager will face when dealing with the
people under his direction is that of bringing out the best in them. Unlocking
people potential is often seen as the key to any business's success. When an
employee's talents are not channeled correctly, their behavior can seriously
compromise the success of an organization.
Instead of dealing with employees that develop defense mechanisms to mask their dissatisfaction with their work situation, let's look as some ways to encourage effective behavior at work. After a problem behavior has been identified, address the employee immediately. Discuss taking responsibility for the ineffective behavior, how the behavior manifests itself, and the effect the behavior is having on the organization. Next, give the employee alternatives to his current behavior. In other words, teach him or her how the principles of achievement
People Empowerment can be a very effective tool within the field of people management. This technique can be used to involve employees in any improvement program within an organization. Authority, accountability, and responsibility are delegated to the employees for improving the processes which are under their control without first having to obtain permission from management before making changes. This could be successful only when employees were recognized, congratulated, and rewarded for their commitment to problem solving.
