Micromanagers:

Micromanagement is a management style where a manager closely observes or controls the work of their employees, generally used as a pejorative term. In contrast to giving general instructions on smaller tasks while supervising larger concerns, the micromanager monitors and assesses every step.

The travel and hospitality business is booming in Asia, but there's a huge shortfall in qualified managers to drive that growth. Success in this business is about delivering guest experiences that are out-of-the-world, while keeping a keen eye on the bottom-line.

1) What's one of the most common questions you get from sales managers about how they can improve?

A common question is how to motivate salespeople to consistently practice the right behaviors. It's one thing to get reps fired up and temporarily pursue the right behaviors, but it's very different to drive them to want to make changes because they believe it's the best thing for them.

When motivating reps, avoid fear-based tactics. Instead, inspire them.…

Training is the process from which employees acquire the capabilities to perform their jobs and is an essential part of any successful business. Training is linked to employee performance and retention. In addition, employees will not reach their full potential and higher levels of productivity will not be achieved unless employees are adequately trained. A poorly trained work force will eventually lead to poor performance and result in costly mistakes.

Overall, training…

The human resources' training function plays an important role from the beginning of the employment relationship. At the same time, the development function of HR is equally important for the future of the employment relationship. Companies often fail to realize that the return on investment in training and development activities help support employers' goals for profitability.

Structure

Large organizations with…

Whatever your viewpoint, it boils down to this: successful leaders share the following characteristics or views:

1. Mission: Leaders know what their mission is. They know why the organization exists. A superior leader has a well thought out (often written) mission describing the purpose of the organization. That purpose need not be esoteric or abstract, but rather descriptive, clear and understandable. Every employee should be able to identify with the…

The global economic downturn has made it all the more important for companies to internally work together to address sales, costs and productivity priorities. In most businesses, the two largest departments – marketing and operations – show a simmering hostility towards each other that lurks behind a fragile détente.
