Don’t be afraid to let your employees know that you have confidence in them and their abilities on the job. After all, you trained them and noticed something in them above the rest of the employees. Giving them that extra boost can make all the difference when they are out on the floor by themselves. Offer an occasional “good job” or praise the positive outcomes you get from them. The manager will feel good knowing that they are doing the good job you desire while gaining confidence.
Tips to boost your manager’s confidence:
- Praise good work
- Communicate your confidence in them and their abilities
- Offer more responsibilities or job expansions
