Do you feel you are ready to move into management? Before you can receive a promotion, you must appear promotable to your supervisor. Here are some of the key elements reviewed by management when they are selecting managers.
Managers don't manage things; they manage people. The definition of management is accomplishing a task through other people. So many managers I have met believe they tell their employees what to do but that the folks in the human resources department should just come in and clean up the mess if the employees don't cooperate.
Not so fast. To be an effective manager, you must master the skills that allow your employees to see you as someone who cares for them, but expects them to be the professionals they portray themselves as being.
What are ethics? How are companies interpreting the word ethics? What are the principles of conduct they are conforming to?
The mis-application of ethics to the hiring process get many businesses in a great deal of trouble.
Why don't managers hire overqualified employees? They have been taught these people won't be happy in the job. Overqualified employees will be bored, frustrated, and underpaid, and will leave the company as soon as a new opportunity comes along. This article exposes this myth for what it is.
