Question

Managerial Leadership

- Greta, the operations manager of a chain of retail stores, visits one of the stores for a meet and greet with the employees of that store. She notices that some employees appear stressed, while others frequently compliment the store manager. Some employees report that they do not feel like they have a voice in the administrative or operating outcomes on their job. How can she make the employees feel that the employees can also participate in management?

Answer 1

It is the responsibility of a manager to make their employees feel involved in the work and it's outcomes so that they can adapt the work they do . Greta needs to bring in rules where every branch need to have time to time meetings and all the employees need to participate in them where they discuss the issues and solutions and any new developments in the company . The opinions of the employees need to be taken on issues and every employee must be given an opportunity to give their opinion. This makes all the employees feel they are a part of administrative decisions and hence would give their best and feel involved. This makes them feel they also can participate in management.
