Do you always see to it that the words
that you say are always motivating and remarkable? For example in your workplace,
do you always see to it that you avoid negative words or words that create a
stigma on those who hear and receive it?
Your words are very powerful it can build
or destroy your subordinates. If your words are always words that condemn or
words that bring down the dignity of your subordinates. You can be sure that your
subordinates morale and productivity will be affected. He/she will lose
confidence in himself which is very important for your subordinates growth and
development.
When you speak to your subordinate/s see
to it that you only speak words that build, words that inform and words that
motivate. Why? Because this is how it should always be, what if a subordinate is
at fault? Doesn’t he/she deserve to be lectured or treated more strictly than
the others? No, for the reason that this is not the right way to solve this
problem.
Harsh words will never correct a faulty
behavior it could even aggravate a defective behavior. The correct method to
approach this problem is through composed and calm face to face communication. When
the boss is calm it follows that the subordinate/s will be calm also but when
the boss is angry and feeling superior there’s always the tendency for the subordinate
to be angry also.
If you always approach with diplomacy and
respect your problem subordinates you could even build their confidence. You
will also be highly respected by your subordinate/s for the simple reason that respect
always begets respect and disrespect begets disrespect also.
Therefore be careful with your words for
it can build or destroy the confidence of your subordinate/s. It can also
enhance or destroy your own reputation as a Boss/Manager - Marino J. Dasmarinas
