Have you ever been told to “go with the flow?” Well for managers, they’re the ones controlling the flow – the workflow! 😜

Managers are literally the puzzle piece that fills in the gap and ensures that everyone’s on the same page, and that teams aren't siloed.

In our weekly blog, Daniel Doerksen walks managers through “The Link Role” and four ways they can connect their teams to the goals of the organization.

85% of managers get promoted without the training they need to support their teams.

And yes, we have said this before, but it's a real problem! Not only because managers are constantly questioning their decisions, but there are wider implications for teams and organizations (disengagement, burnout, and turnover oh my!).

That's the gap You Can Manage was created for.

Starting October 14, our first workshop (in a new series) "You Can Manage - The Essential Five Framework" breaks management down into 5 practices you'll actually use, not theory you'll forget by Friday.

You don't have to be a perfect manager. You just have to be a good one. This is where you start.

Ever gotten a project from the higher-ups and thought "there is no way this is realistic"...then spent the next hour figuring out how to say that to your boss without torching the relationship?

It can be normal to feel tension when things feel like they’re taking a turn, but effective conflict resolution comes with calm and respectful communication from all parties involved.

Take a look into our blog post this week that goes over how you can be assertive AND respectful! 😎😉

This might be a relatable experience for some of you...

You’re great at your job, you meet your deadlines, you get praise from leadership about how fantastic you are, and you start to think...

“I think I’d be the perfect manager, I should get promoted!”

We hate to burst your bubble, but you actually wouldn’t be the perfect manager, but you could be a really great one!

Here’s the thing, there’s really no such thing as perfect – and being a manager is a completely different skillset. A hard truth is just because you think you’d be good at something doesn’t mean you have the skills (yet).

That’s probably NOT what you want to hear after you’ve spent years in your field – totally get it.

But it’s also a reality check... to be a manager, you have to LEARN how to be a good manager that everyone wants. It doesn’t mean you’re back at square one, it just means you have a new opportunity to shape how you want to lead.

On our website we have FREE resources from our book “You Can Manage: A Practical Guide to Becoming the Manager Everyone Wants”. These are great tools for you to use in your journey to become a totally awesome leader https://vist.ly/5gcb3 😉

Good leaders aren’t born; they are built through their own learning experiences.

And a lot of the time, the reason why managers fail is because they don’t have the support or the tools they need to grow into their role – it can feel like you don’t know what you’re doing.

If this sounds like you and something that you’ve experienced or are currently going through – here’s what you can do right now, yes right now!

This is the first step in the Essential Five:

Lead with clarity about your roles and who you are as a leader.

This can start with YOU. Your personal growth and development are important first steps to create a real impact on your leadership style. This sets up not only how you manage and how you lead – but also shapes how others will see you as a leader. When you take these steps forward, you start to lead the way for others who’re following in your footsteps.

Our book “You Can Manage” dives deeper into how you can be a great manager. For more tips you can follow us – but if you’re in for a cool read (at least we think so) you can purchase our book on Amazon:

Leaders are always looking for ways to create a safe and healthy working environment. A Workplace Threat Risk Assessment (WTRA) is an essential tool that can help leadership understand how to protect their staff and the people they work with.

Initiating a conversation with your employees can be a great place to start in understanding how they feel in the workplace.

Did you know that having healthy work relationships with your team can increase productivity?

For managers, the people stuff is absolutely part of the job. You WANT your team to feel comfortable enough to tell you about their weekend AND when something isn’t going right at work. 😅

If you’re a manager, you should create safe spaces where people feel okay to connect at work. Part of creating a HEALTHY WORKPLACE CULTURE is creating a space where people want to work and be productive but also know it’s okay to have a little chit-chat with their peers when it’s appropriate.

This is something that we hold close to us at ACHIEVE, where we believe that everyone should like where they work.

We provide weekly insights on how you can be the best manager for your team and organization. Follow us for more!

One of the most important things you can do after a crisis is to listen to your employees.

But what counts as a crisis? A crisis or “critical incident” is any event that causes distress. For leaders you really do have to... well 😅 – take the lead and make sense of the incident quickly – this can be difficult to figure out when things feel overwhelming.

Here’s one thing you can do right away:

Manage how you respond to stress. By doing this, you’ll set an example and maintain the trust you’ve already built with your team.
