What Manager Can Do to Get Employees to Trust Them More (3 Questions to Ask)

If you manage people read this: 32% of a worker’s loyalty is the result of feeling trust towards their boss (according to a recent study). Employees are 12 times more likely to recommend the company as a great employer when their manager listens to them (and very few do).

How certain are you that your team trusts you? Have you asked them directly?

But what does it actually take for an employee to trust their boss?

One of THE top reasons is if an employee’s boss responded constructively when they shared their work challenges/problems. Only 23% of people say that when they share their work problems with their leader, they “always” respond constructively. That’s horrible and easily fixable.

Here are three questions to help you understand your employee’s roadblocks (and then work with them to solve it). You’ll also increase performance, engagement, and motivation. All of those things will help you get promoted and stand out much more.

1) “What can I do to make you more effective?”

2) “What roadblocks have you been facing?” “What’s been getting in the way for you lately?”

3) “What things have been frustrating you at work lately?” 

Hope you enjoyed, “What Manager Can Do to Get Employees to Trust Them More (3 Questions to Ask).”

If Employees Are NOT Speaking Up Here is Why

If employees aren’t speaking up, look at your culture before you blame them. Leaders need to take a hard look at the environment they are creating (consciously or unconsciously).

Creating a suggestion box or conducting an employee survey isn’t enough. Leaders need to stop punishing dissent & instead reward raising issues & proposing ideas/improvements. 

Build psychological safe environments & reward the behaviors that promote engagement and problem-solving. 

My Team Building Speech at PRSA Southwest District Conference on Building the Highest Performing Teams in Minutes

You can see above the great discussions that went on today in Houston at the PRSA Southwest District Conference at my presentation on team building.

Click on the above links to the see the small group interactions.

We discussed how to build the highest performing teams today. We also played by team building game, Cards Against Mundanity, in small groups so everyone could interactively experience why these strategies and tools will help them perform, collaborate and communicate much, much better.

Teamwork is the most important soft skill moving forward (slightly ahead of self awareness). It’s the least understood and very few people can run great teams. But it’s a critical skill everyone needs. You aren’t born with it. You have to learn it just like a technical skill and it’s just as complicated. But there are is a fast track process to building great teams. And you can apply it to third parties such as customers, partners, media and analysts.

CardsAgainstMundanity.com – Get the free PDF game and consider doing either an in-person workshop or assisted remote one. Soon I’ll be launching a physical, poker style cards you can use.
