Passive Team Management – Why Your Team Is Struggling to Reach Targets

from Enhance.training · host Enhance.training

Passive team management is damaging to team performance. In my experience, over 50% of managers are TOO passive, and as a result their teams struggle to reach targets.I share 5 actions every manager should do well to improve team performance and be show active team management.--- --- Many passive team managers feel like that are adopting a hands off approach to empower the team yet their passive behaviour leaves the team confused, unsupported and disengaged.I have worked alongside plenty of board directors that display passive leadership and a very passive management style whose teams struggled to improve in any meaningful way. My point – passive team management happens throughout the management ranks. There are too many passive managers, in part because they have not been taught what good active management looks like.I share 10 signs that you might have too much of a passive management style. By reducing these behaviours you join the group of more active team managers.There are a lot of dangers of passive team management, such as lower co-ordination and teamwork. These dangers stop your team performing nearly as well as they might. Active managers avoid these dangers by having a much more involved team management approach. Finally, I take you through 5 actions you should do more of right now for better active management. These actions are a great starting point and ANY manager can do them. The better you do these actions, the more likely your team will beat targets. If you have any questions on “Passive Team Management – Why Your Team Is Struggling to Reach Targets”, please email me at [email protected] and I will get back to you.  Jess Colesenhance.training
