Empowerment
The Bottom Line
The primary responsibility of supervisors or any leaders is to
make those underneath them successful. We show respect for
our employees when we provide them with the training and
resources that lead to their success and ongoing development.
As we challenge employees with new learning opportunities,
they become increasingly more valuable and engaged, and they
significantly increase the human capital of the organization.
Reflect for a minute. Are you creating an environment in which
employees can thrive or just survive? What suggestions and
solutions can you take away from this chapter and begin imple-
menting immediately to empower your employees?
Like empowerment, the next RESPECT driver is critically
related to the continued growth, development, and success of
employees: supportive feedback.
