Help Your Employees Succeed in 5 Steps

November 8, 2019 by Joseph Belbol

One of the common topics that I discuss when advising business owners is that of employees. From finding employees, keeping employees, and sometimes letting employees go. Dealing with employees can be difficult because we are people with emotions, problems, families, health issues, and also have lives outside of work. As a business owner and manager, here are 5 steps to make sure that your employees succeed:

#1 First things first: Slow down the hiring process to make sure the position and the potential employee are a good match before even starting. This can include multiple interviews, interviews with your other employees or managers (if you are a solopreneur, then the other interviewer can even be your wife or someone that you trust greatly), asking the right questions to gauge ethics and personality, and tests. A test can include a short demonstration of skills and knowledge.

#2 Initial set-up: It seems so simple, but is your employee ready to start working on their first day? Do they have the proper technology, equipment, uniforms, or even completed payroll information all ready before starting? Don’t waste their time because ultimately you are wasting your time and money and also do not appear to be organized.

#3 Training: Even if you hire experienced employees, they will still need to be trained with how you operate. Take the time to train so that they will perform well and feel good about their job.

#4 Set expectations: Let your employees know what you expect them to work on today, tomorrow, this week, and in the future. Also, set expectations for hours worked, time off, busy times during the year, and the like.

#5 Support: Employees will experience sickness, need to attend to family matters, and go through stressful times. Support them during their time of need to help them throughout any ordeals they may have. If you need support, then good employees will support you too.

There are many more ways, but this is a good start. Remember, success is not accomplished by itself.
