re: Tips on being a supervisor/manager/leader

quote:

---

You manage things. You lead people. 

Praise in public, coach in private. Recognize your top performers, eliminate your bottom 10 %. Cut the dead weight. 

Build trust, build loyalty, build unity. Eliminate "I" from your vocabulary and replace with "We."

I am going into my third year of a similar scenario, do these things and there will become a point where most of them don't even realize how young you are.

Be yourself, and know your strengths and weaknesses. Figuring out your best employees is important, you want to pull them aside and ask their opinions on things, knowing that you value their opinions is huge.
