Providing Feedback and Direction.
Managing people effectively is a tough job under normal circumstances. During the type of economy that we are facing, it’s especially challenging. Instead of being their usual focused and productive selves, direct reports are increasingly nervous, concerned, and cautious. It’s as if everyone has taken a half-step backward in terms of their personal productivity.
