Managing Success: Effective Manager-Employee Relationships

In the world of business, there could be no one better to fuel workplace productivity than people managers. They have the biggest impact on employee performance, are responsible for coordinating the work, and tasked with overcoming what are sometimes massive obstacles.

During this session, Jeremy Henderson, MHR, will introduce some of the massive lessons he has learned in various management roles over the past 20 years, everything from understanding your motivations for being a manager through overcoming some of the biggest obstacles that exist in business today. He'll talk about what it means to be a bad boss and a good manager; helps managers connect with their values, motivations, and emotions; and prepares them to confront common hurdles with ease. And since study after study tells us that the most important driver to employee satisfaction is the manager-employee relationship, it only stands to reason that companies should be placing their bets on managers to hold the ship together.

Management is also not for the faint of heart. If you feel like you need someone to hold your hand, brush your hair, and call you pretty, this session is not for you. Management requires calculated risks, an honest look at yourself and your behavior, and to muster up the courage you will need to change and grow and commit to managing effective employee relationships.

Now here’s the good news. Once you have made your way through this session, you’ll have a much better understanding of yourself as a manager. And with better understanding comes a consciousness that will lead you from the managerial practices you employ today, to those that can help you achieve amazing results in the future with your employees.

HR managers, HR business partners, training and development professionals, employee communications professionals and anyone who helps to facilitate effective manager-employee relationships in the workplace.
