Is it possible to manage women, they are always on their minds! A purely ladies' team is traditionally considered difficult even for an experienced leader. And they are capricious, and strive to leave work early, to achieve labor victories from them seems an impossible task. However, it is possible, you just need to master some techniques.
Instructions
Step 1
To begin with, you should find out the marital status of all your subordinates. Married people and those who are not burdened by the marriage bond have completely different incentives to work.
Step 2
Schedule work so that employees with small children can do some of their responsibilities from home. Offer them flexible hours or let them come an hour late. Most likely, the matter will not suffer from this. But you will cease to be annoyed because of the eternal delays and disrupted reporting deadlines.
Step 3
Unmarried ladies are literally burning at work, and you are afraid that they may be aiming at your chair? Praise them for their zeal, respect their work and … load them up with additional responsibilities, declaring that you trust them with the most important part of the job. Ardent careerists will appreciate your attention, and they simply will not have the energy and time for intrigue.
Step 4
Carefully study the relationships in the team, identify informal leaders and make them your allies. Think over a system of official rewards and punishments, coordinate it with the most active employees. They need to understand that they are getting together not only to discuss TV shows in the smoking room. Don't let them forget that you are a strict boss.
Step 5
Come up with ideas for general leisure activities. After work, you can go to the club or nature, do not neglect informal communication, but strictly after the end of the working day. Thus, you will make it clear that nothing human is alien to you, but business is time, and fun is an hour. And it is worth relaxing not instead of work, but after it.
Step 6
To settle conflicts, delve into them. This is unpleasant, but necessary. Otherwise, you risk becoming a victim of a policy of silence. “But our boss doesn’t care” - they should never say that about you. You have to own the situation in order to manage it.
Step 7
Thus, the main thing in the leadership of the women's team is the human approach. Leave women the right to be women. Over time, you will become convinced that the ladies subordinate to you are excellent employees, and it is not so difficult to find a common language with them.
