If you were your own manager for one day, what would you change?

If you were in charge of the department you work in for one day, what would you do differently? Would it be something with the actual work you do, or the place you work in?
Thanks for your time!

Sam’s Answer

If I could change anything at all, it would be to instill in members of the department the underlying reasons for why we're all doing the work we're doing. It's very easy to forget the purposes for the work that we do in the day-to-day; I think that happens in any industry or line of work.

Chaimaa’s Answer

It is more common than not to find managers that are too hierarchy-centered, i.e set extreme boundaries between themselves and their teams. This creates a wedge between these latter, affecting the working environment and hence the firm's productivity levels. A work relationship built on transparency and trust, however, adds to the comfort of both managers and their teams.
That in mind, what I would do if I were a manager for a day is to sit my entire team and have a genuine, hierarchy-less conversation to figure out the general mood of the workplace. Honest questions will bring forward honest answers, which would then lead to honest change in our working environment. A day's worth of complete transparency might then lead to an overall better productivity levels and pleasant workplace.
Thank you comment icon That is an excellent point, thank you so much! Angelina
Thank you comment icon I would have an employee appreciation day once a month. I find that appreciation goes along way toward high performance. At the end of the month, as a manager I would recognize top performers to the team and also award them in some way. A few minutes offline time, opportunities for theme to share best practices, or employee spotlights throughout the industry. Bobby Lee

Cindie’s Answer

Hi Angelina. Today, I am not a direct manager of people. I have been in the past...I think the largest group I've had responsibility for is about 50; the most direct reports about 15 to 20. When I reflect on what I would have done different when I was a direct manager of people, I think the main thing is to plan more when meeting with them one on one and then follow up on the conversations we've had to ensure progress or resolution. People who report to you look to you for direction and/or affirmation of the direction that they are taking and their results. People want to perform and they need to know what is important to you and the business you both represent.

To be honest, I would keep it simple and have an 'early dismissal with pay' for all.

A simple act of kindness to show appreciation for a staff is well worth it.
Thank you comment icon Thank you! Angelina
Thank you comment icon Dear Angelina, I would like to reward failures. The social stigma around failures puts unnecessary pressure on one and all. I would like to set the mission statement as "Do your best and don't worry about the outcomes". Essentially, don't be too obsessed about the end goal. It is how you approach it is what matters. Good luck. Ashwath Ashwath Kannan

Kim’s Answer

I too work at a career center. We currently have a goal of getting clients back to work within ten weeks, but the focus is on giving them job referrals, with little help in making them "job-ready." I would implement a process that shifts the focus away from how many job referrals we give to our clients. Instead, I would have a "gate-keeper" tasked with reviewing each resume, and making sure it is a GOOD resume, rather than just "acceptable," before case managers could give job referrals to the client.

Great question!
Thank you comment icon That is good advice, thank you so much! Angelina

Carole’s Answer

I have experienced this in one of my jobs as manager. I was asked to move into a different department because of my background in Career Counseling. It was quite a different experience, but I was able to contribute some of my ideas to make it a little better working environment. These are some of the things that I did :
1. I had interviews with the people that were under my management and got to know what skills they had and what experience and interests they have within this company. I interviewed them individually and got a wealth of information from each person and used many ideas to help the center run more smoothly. Some of the employees got to actually work at what they really liked to do.
2. The second idea that I had was to put readable signs in places that they could be seen by the visitors that entered the Career Center.
3. I made an introduction paper that each visitor got when they entered the center knew about all the options that we offer and who they should see or make an appointment with.
4. The one thing that was hard for me to do was to let someone go because they were not doing what they were supposed to be doing. In this instance it was the fact that this employee was always late for work and the excuses were wide spread. This person had trouble with being on time and was written up several times for this. This employee was soon gone from the company.
5. When the receptionist was gone to lunch or otherwise, we had our staff take turns to help with the front desk because someone had to answer questions. So we all had a workshop to teach everyone in the company how to run the front desk when the receptionist is away from the desk.

Some of what I changed was actual work related and other ideas that I had were to use the personalities that were present at work and try and put each person in a situation that they could use their interests and feel like they are contributing to the flow of the office and the betterment of the people that they are talking to.

I hope this gives you some answer for you to think when managing people in the workplace. Sometimes you can find information about management within a class situation, or a business management book, or using some experiences that you have had and that were favorable to you. Managing people is not an easy job, so the more you know about the people you are managing the better able you are to help them and the company run well.
Thank you comment icon Thank you so much for your answer! It seems you really improved your workplace. Thanks again! Angelina

Nice question.

I wouldn't change that much. I really like the department where I am working. We have lots of flexibility, for instance: it doesn't matter how or where you do your job, most important is that you do you job when people expect you to do something.

But since I am a manager for only one day, I will treat on cake or so :)

If I were a manager I would find the red tape stuff that ties up productivity and get rid of those red tape items. So many issues impact productivity and just seem silly at times. I would take time to identify them and get in contact with those that control the issues and find a way to resolve or eliminate.

I would proactively engage the 'worker bees' for their candidate feedback on our processes. Giving those a voice that are actually doing the work daily, asking them what they love, what they don't and what they would like changed. Also giving them a platform to voice any ideas they have on how to change things to make us more efficient, more productive yet more happy in organization.

David’s Answer

I have been a manager for a fast food company, and so have learned some great ways to help the day go by smoothly. To relate it to my current profession, I would visualize before my shift started, what I wanted to accomplish for the day, and then plan how I would do that. Once in the office, set the plan in motion, and be sure to include everyone. I would throw in some "trivia games" to keep the day light, and be sure to praise the team throughout the day for the great job they are doing. When the day is over, log the successes and opportunities, so that the rest of the week, month, year, can go smoothly.

Emmanuel’s Answer

I work in a pretty great work environment and the morale is very high. That being said, if I could change one thing I would say more time to get to know my teammates outside of work. It can be bowling or having a kickball game whether you come to play or cheer, or even a simple lunch outing. Anything that will allow and encourage natural and spontaneous conversation. Team bonding is important and has been proven to ultimately boost numbers and overall results across multiple fields.

To be honest & practical the changes do not come overnight, consistency & hardworking is the key. Good decisions are taken when you understand & be in the system for a while. That might sound good for a day could have bad consequences for the days ahead.

Considering the situation though would appreciate the employees who have been working really well & might discuss with others on their challenges & support they need to improve. I would try to become approachable for all employees to have their issues discussed without the barrier of an employee-manager relation.

Peregrin’s Answer

Angelina,

Over the course of my career, I have been an individual contributor and project manager, had direct manager responsibilities, been a director with about 70 IT professionals working for me or my managers around the globe. As an individual contributor, I always valued having a true sense of empowerment. It is one thing to have management say you are empowered to make decisions, take chances, and the inevitable mistakes that come with that, but it is another thing entirely to actually make that happen and express to people on your team what empowerment looks like and what it means. That said, as a manager and director, I attempted to do that, giving clear guidance and encouragement to team members who wanted to try something. I would teach them how to make their case, give them opportunities to do so, and in some cases, identify areas where if they failed, the learning from the failure would greatly outweigh any negatives of the failure. It is a great feeling when you can get that level of trust built up and it is great for team performance.

Hope this was helpful. Best of luck.

Hector’s Answer

It will be an amazing opportunity to learn more about my team and or my peers. There are many tings that come to mind, however at this time, I will take the opportunity to create an additional space to invite all the team to express two or three ideas that they had been thinking of and or working on that are not already known. This could be work or professionally related or personally related. Whit that, the space will give the opportunity to the whole team to learn something new from each other. Also, It will allow the team to take their minds for a moment away from current pressures and or routines. When given the opportunity, I like to see what can be done to help the people that I work or do life with. Most of the time, people just need and outlet to express themselves or to be listen to; If I can create that outlet I will put it out there for the team.

Hector recommends the following next steps:

Read about engagement in the work place
Look for team building activities
Read about communication styles / How to be assertive

A great Question! I actually love the team I am part of at Cisco and we have a great leadership. But if I was made the manager/leader I would ensure everyone in my organization is mapped to a role/function where they can play to their Strengths every day at work, what energizes them at work. It may mean to move people from one function to another but at least that way everyone would love to do what they do and find what strengthens them and what they look forward to.

Mary Ellen’s Answer

Some of the best business discussions that I have had with my team mates are held outside of the office. A different environment can help to break down walls and allow the conversation to be more free flowing. A coffee shop or even a walk in a park can also help you to shift your perspective on things. If I were my own manager for the day, I would encourage my team to meet together outside of the office and connect, discuss and respectively debate those things that our top of mind and also those things that need to be addressed.

KRISTY’s Answer

Honestly, I do not believe real changes happen overnight and actually stick. Most people do not like change. In the workplace, most employees actually resist change. Therefore, it takes much time to work through the root cause of the problem, buy-in from employees and stakeholders, a team of experts to determine a solution, testing to ensure there are no negative impacts to business before you implement the changes, and monitoring the solution to confirm that you achieved the goals desired. One day is not realistic enough for the long term solutions needed in a successful business.

Kristin’s Answer

This is no longer the case for me, however in one of my older roles, there was a lack of recognition and knowledge of my job by the person I reported to. Other leaders provided recognition to my team but it was often discouraging that the person we reported to didn't see it.

That being said I would change the ways staff are recognized, so that my staff feel value and know that I value the hard work that they do every day. I would also take the time to ensure I know what they are working on and offer any assistance if needed, but leave them to it if they don't need assistance. I would also ensure that there are regular touch points with my staff so they feel like they can be open with me about how they are feeling and they also now where I stand. Being as transparent as you can with your staff helps to built trust within your team.

For me, it would be about doing something for the people I'm managing. Whether personally or professionally I would use that day to talk with them learn about what they think is good/bad about their current job & see if there's anything in their personal life that they believe is impacting their job (for the better or for worse). Essentially show them you care & see what I could do from a management position to better understand what's going on in their lives to help them better perform their job which would ultimately help the collective group run better.

Jen’s Answer

Hello;

I am currently in a leadership position and have served in a supervisory capacity for 20 years in a very dynamic industry. With having only one day in the scenerio, I would focus on getting to know my employees through asking thought-provoking questions about who they are, what functions that they support, how they meet the needs of their customers and where they see their own career progessing. Investing in your employees is one of the most important things you can do and will have the largest impact to your teams overall success. Building these relationships establishes trust - and when it's time to delivery on an objective, they will be there to achieve! Lastly, I would reach out to a few of their customers to get performance feedback regarding areas that they are doing well in - and finish with a personal THANK YOU to each employee.

Get to know my people for who they are. I would take some time and get out on the floor and mingle with the people who work for me. Shake hands, bump elbows or high five. Ask how they are doing, listen to understand. Later in the day do something kind that they will leave the office with at end of day. Whether it's buying a coffee, cookies or offering an extra break. Or maybe lollipops for the kids they mentioned they had or a bone for their dog. Just to show I was listening. Small gestures of kindness move mountains.

CAROLYN’s Answer

If I was in charge of my current department I would place more emphasis on connecting with the team on a more personal level. We are approaching the second year of working virtually from home. So those of us who are Managers have had to learn new ways of presenting information and meeting with our teams via Zoom and other virtual meeting platforms. In the absence of seeing each other and being in the same space physically we work to find common areas and new ways of connecting with team members. Icebreakers, stretching exercises, music and TED talks provide great ways of connecting before most team meetings.

If I were in charge for a day the biggest thing I would change is to ensure everyone is on the same page. Communication is key in everything that we do as leaders.

Everyone being on the same page allows for the goal to be achieved quicker without any issues.

Hi Angelina,

If I was my own manager for a day, I would take my entire team for a fun day at the beach, a picnic at the park or a fun fill day at a winery. The reason is that most of the time we get so involved in our work that we forget to have a little bit of fun as a team. Everyone has issues and personal problems in their lives and if I can give them just one day of stress free and lots of fun, I am sure it would go along way.

Managing people can be challenging and rewarding, it's important to remember that people desire open communication built on trust, they need to know you have their back and they can come and speak to you about anything on their mind without fear. It's equally as important to set goals, hold folks accountable, praise them for their hard work and bring with you the human factor. Meaning people will work harder for you if you build trust, hold them accountable, and listen to their needs. Regardless of what company you work for, building a cohesive team, built on trust, accountability, expectations and genuinely caring about them, will always bring on a high performance team!
