Summary “An Effective Leader”
An effective leader is strong support from subordinates.
To be a good boss – it is first of all necessary to establish good relations with subordinates. They have an objective assessment of the chef’s leadership style. The way he looks in the eyes of his subordinates, how they relate to him and explains his successes and failures.
The subordinates are very well aware of the difference between a bad and a good leader. With a good leader, the work becomes interesting, and the results achieved reinforce the sense of professionalism. Conversely, under a bad leader, subordinates serve a paid labor service.
In relations with subordinates, it is possible to single out such an important point – the degree of freedom of the subordinate’s actions is reasonably determined – the main prerequisite for increasing the effectiveness of his work.
A bad (ineffective) leader suppresses the abilities of his subordinates to the initiative.

The secret of the manager’s effectiveness is not to limit oneself to the rigid framework of one style, but also to adhere to the basic principles of human leadership.
Feedbacks. The head must know the opinion of subordinates about this or that decision taken.
Subordinates tend to always learn about the evaluation of the work done directly from the manager. The manager must be able to accurately and timely assess the work done.
A certain amount of freedom. The subordinates must have the freedom of action within the reasonable and permissible.
One needs less freedom in work, others need more. This is determined individually by the chef, relying on knowledge of the nature and characteristics of each subordinate.
Attitude to work. An effective leader objectively assesses the role of labor in people’s lives, without exaggerating or diminishing it, helping
Orientation to the results of work. An effective leader knows how to properly mark the labor achievements of subordinates.
The most valuable is the final result, although it can not be ignored by the very process of labor activity.
Rise. Much wisdom is hidden in the well-known saying that the best way to make a career is to fulfill your daily duties impeccably.
If you supplement it with hints of the possibility of raising those who have the chance, then this will be an additional labor incentive.
Personal behavior. With subordinates, an effective leader should only behave officially (formally), constantly keeping a social distance, or establish semi-official, even friendly relations. However, one should not stick to one of the extremes. A good leader has relations with his subordinates and not strictly official, but also not purely friendly (friendly). It depends on the attitude towards people in general, on the specific situation, the behavior of subordinates. As one director said, you can not treat a bear, as with a kitten, and with a kitten, as with a bear.
Configure the employee to complete the task – half the battle. In the process of work, one must be able to praise and, if necessary, criticize. If forms of moral encouragement are easier to find, then the forms of criticism are harder to pick up, especially those that will positively affect the employee, his understanding of the matter, and not bitterness.
