Do you recognize this? One or more employees of your team give you more headaches than assistance. Instead of relieving you, they provide you with more work.
Fortunately, that doesn't have to be the case. You, too, can work with employees who do exactly what you want them to do, so that your team's performance improves, you achieve your goals and can get promoted, while you work fewer hours.
The great thing about being a manager is that you don't have to do it alone. Because you have a team (and therefore human resources) at your disposal, you can achieve your goals relatively easily. Without having to work harder yourself. On the contrary, the better you arrange it, the easier you can achieve your goals and the less you have to do yourself.
However, it does require good Human Resources Management.
Many managers do not succeed in this. For them, leading a team remains a struggle.
As a result, they are forced to still do a lot of work themselves, which they should have been able to delegate.
They are still regularly the point of contact for everyday matters, which prevents them from getting to what is most important for their company and their family.
And they lie awake at night worrying about employees who give them headaches because they don't know what to do with them.
