Yes! Great Managers can be mistaken! And we love to admit it! Because we are just like other people in that we all make mistakes and what sets us apart is that we are open to admitting it because we can learn and grow from every area we live in whether it's success or mistakes.
What makes a great manager and we are often mistaken about is that great managers create an atmosphere of peacefulness. Yes, we as managers do create different atmospheres at different times and when the time is right we need to create ... an atmosphere of urgency, or an atmosphere of excitement but most of the time we should be creating an atmosphere of peacefulness.
It has been proven that most people when working under stress do a less effective job, produce less effective results and are typically unhappy with their jobs. If you know and understand this then you will also understand that helping people to be assured, comfortable and at peace with their working environment will allow them to produce at an optimal level.
And we all know that if our staff is producing at an optimal level most of the time that the results we will get will be exceptional most of the time.
So while you may have been under the impression that you as a manager needed to keep the pressure on your people, keeping their "nose to the grindstone" as the saying goes will actually keep you from being the Great Manager that you would like to be and keep your from obtaining the desired results that your boss would like to see.
Now you truly understand that good managers are often mistaken about how to get the most out of their people while Great Managers not only know more because they have read and listened more but also because they not only create an atmosphere of learning and growth but they live it!
