Don’t Forget to Follow Up

Out of sight, out of mind, right? Just because you’ve delegated the task to someone else, doesn’t mean you can completely forget about it.  Since you are the person ultimately responsible for the success or failure of the project, it’s important that you watch over the project and provide motivation, support and encouragement.  Following up creates accountability, therefore making yourself available in the following ways to ensures that the work will get done:

• Coach – A Successful Supervisor  trains, guides and motivates his/her team to perform
• Player – A Successful Supervisor takes part  in the game 
• Cheerleader – A Successful Supervisor enthusiastically encourages his/her team to perform and applauds them on the work completed

Go! Follow Up.
