Assist Employees Facing Challenges

Your employees look to you for guidance, help, and support in difficult situations. While it may seem at times this is all you do, it is part of the job. An important aspect of any manager’s role is to help navigate challenges and obstacles with employees. While you shouldn’t solve for everything yourself, at times you do need to provide information, guidance and assistance. All of which is done with the hope that your employees will be better equipped to handle the next situation successfully on their own. In order for you to help your employees with challenges and difficult situations, you need to know when they’re happening. Simply put, you can’t help someone solve a problem if you don’t know one exists. There are a number of ways you can increase your awareness of these situations. This course will help you think about your preferred managerial style, your team’s situation, and select one or more methods that would work well for you. By completing this course, you will know how to provide help and assistance to your employees facing challenges and obstacles.
