Don’t give them meaningful feedback if the company isn’t going to let them grow financially personally and professionally. I’ve received very meaningful feedback from managers before and worked on improving myself. The company didn’t have any intentions of promoting anyone or giving anyone decent raises even if they met their goals based on feedback.
I’m not in healthcare. I’m in IT consulting
I'm trying to delegate more. I have a bad habit of doing important things on my own because I know how I want them done and I'm not always great at explaining to other people how to do things in the right way. But obviously it's unsustainable and I'm holding other people back from learning if I don't learn how to delegate.
You better learn how to delegate because you'll lose your job and you will never get promoted. The key is to set the proper goals objectives and measuring tools to monitor their performance. Also, you want them to get better. You'll have to learn different skills like reviewing their work in an effective manner.
Let it fail.
It’s giving for profit
I’m guilty if going into problem solving mode, so I want to be better about if someone comes to me with an issue, asking them what they think the solution is (even if if I know/have a solution ready) and working through it together vs me just telling them how to handle it. Basically empowering them.
My biggest goal is to get better about using the word no. I commit to way too many things at work and end up drowning in projects and work which leads to feeling burned out. I need to learn how to say no and not keep takng on extra things to help everyone else.
You better give them mental feedback that's your job. If you're supervised people you need to give them feedback all the time constructive and the point is for them to get better. Don't listen to some of these comments about if they're not gonna get promoted that's just ridiculous. At the very least you're making them better at what they do. Plus whatever they do wrong you do wrong. Never forget that.
