Working With New Administrative Staff
Introduction
Hiring the ideal office manager and administrative assistant can transform a real estate business. Recently, a client of mine succeeded in finding such a person who matched most qualifications and possessed a fantastic personality. However, as many business leaders know, hiring is just the beginning; aligning new hires with company expectations is the real challenge.
Managing Expectations
The key to working with new staff is effectively managing expectations. You must clearly outline priorities, processes, and deadlines. Challenges often arise when managers struggle to communicate or delegate tasks they've managed themselves for years.
Addressing the Challenges
My client faced similar challenges and sought my guidance to develop strategies for fostering a positive and productive work environment. We began by identifying what was successful, pinpointing issues, and clarifying expectations. This allowed me to create tailored strategies for him.
Effective Strategies
Rather than outlining my suggestions, here’s what my client did that proved effective:
1. Be Patient: Allow time for growth and adjustment.
2. Build Relationships: Focus on developing a rapport before expecting high performance.
3. Clarify Goals: Make sure goals are clear and explain their importance.
4. Embrace Mistakes: Let them learn from their errors.
5. Set Realistic Expectations: Don’t expect them to match your level immediately.
6. Practice Kindness: Approach interactions with empathy.
7. Offer Constructive Feedback: Instead of highlighting every fault, suggest preferred methods.
Conclusion
Almost every working relationship encounters stress or tension, which is normal. However, employing strategies for managing expectations and clear communication can prevent setbacks and ensure a harmonious and productive workplace.
