Ways to be a better manager
As I was looking through the videos I was struggling trying to find the exact topic to blog on. I am currently in management so there are a lot of topics that can be a benefit to anybody in the management field. The first video I want to show you is a RSA Style video. It is a video on how to manage people and be a better leader. I have a few classes that I have taken on leadership and no matter what part of the career someone is in they are always trying to become a better leader. Just the other day our class had a guest speaker that was the CEO of Polaroid and during his presentation, he was talking about things he works on. It was surprising how much he worked on not only fits in this video but is also really basic. The importance to him and part of this video is building a good team and having teamwork. The part he mentioned that isn’t in this video is the culture of an organization and how a manager can building a culture no matter what level they are on. Here is a link to the first video make sure to watch it. It has some great information.
The final topic I want to talk about that is becoming a much bigger role in the workplace is the relationship between all employees including managers. There is a large push for managers to building positive relationships with employees and work with those relationships. At my work, I have heard numerous times that relationships matter. This next video gives some great advice on how to build those relationships. The most important topic in this video to me is to build trust. If we can’t trust each other we will never had a good working relationship.

I won’t spend a lot of time on this final video, but it is a tedtalk about the power of building relationships. Anybody that is a fan of tedtalks or has the aspiration to build better relationships has to give this one a watch.

Hey Jeff,
ReplyDeleteI have always really enjoyed the RSA style videos, but until this week had no idea what they were called! I think they are visually stimulating while you listen to the presentation being made, it keeps you engaged. And if I am being honest, I love how creative they are! (I may suffer a bit from creative envy!) I really enjoyed the first video you posted, thanks for sharing!
