4 Steps to Manage People Better

Most managers don’t actually manage people. They manage tasks.

They tell.

They correct.

They rarely coach.

That’s the difference between a boss people tolerate and a leader people trust.

When you learn how to coach and mentor someone, everything changes.

You build loyalty and develop people who think for themselves.

This week’s lesson shares a simple four-step framework to help you manage people more effectively through better communication and growth.

If you lead a team, you’ll recognize yourself in this one.

If you’ve ever felt frustrated trying to motivate someone who just isn’t getting it, this will show you why.

It’s not about pushing harder.

It’s about coaching smarter.

At first, you’ll wonder why you haven’t been doing these steps all along.

Then, you can take action, or even manage upward, to start maximizing your team’s enjoyment and performance!
