Goal-setting in the workplace is key to getting things done. Countless studies on human motivation and performance  bear this out. Yet it’s a fact that’s often lost on first-time managers. And even if they understand the importance of setting goals for team members, new leaders miss the nuances of this important management skill. Their company recently launched a program for first-time managers.

It’s not unusual for companies to conduct an annual, company-wide survey. But it’s also not unusual that these surveys leave you and your employees with more questions than answers. Here are a few familiar scenarios that you might encounter during your annual company survey, the questions you’ll get asked, and why your current approach might not be working. Too Little, Too Late. You’ve sent your costly annual employee engagement survey to the entire company. You tell yourself, “This year will be different.” You have a game plan and are eager to get your results. And another.

Disagreements happen in even the best work cultures. Although conflict is often inevitable, leaders can help their team out of a tiff with proper conflict resolution. Separate both parties and listen to their points of view. Bottom line.

In essence, the challenge you face in human capital management is to take a group of individual employees and make them greater together than the sum of their parts. Everyone has talent to offer – some work best independently while others collaborate well with teams of co-workers, but everyone brings something to the table. Your job in HCM is to put it all together. What skills do they need?

Did your boss offer to pay for a meal? Did they recognize your effort at all? If you answered “yes” to any of these questions, then you realize the impact that recognition can have.  We want to change that.

Managers often are told their teams need to be more innovative, but sometimes the ideas a team proposes just, well, stink. Experts advise how leaders can kill bad ideas without demoralizing the team or impeding new ideas. There’s nothing more fun or energizing than when a team is bouncing ideas back and forth, each proposal more creative or “out there” than the last. Wouldn’t it be cool if…Yes!

But with Spring comes the return (hopefully), of warmer weather and the shift to our 'summer' clothes - both for work and for not work. Get past the title for a second and read the whole piece.
