Manager's Corner aka. Piled Higher and Deeper
Communication: Set up 1-on-1 meetings monthly to make sure your employees feel comfortable talking to you. Write down their name on a pad (so you don't forget it during the meeting) and then take copious notes. Practice good listening techniques and nod frequently. Now is a good time to find out what your employee has been doing for the last month, and to hear what they have planned for the next month. State that you enjoyed listening and look forward to the next meeting. Take the rest of the day off and check back with them a month later with a nice, fresh notepad.
