Management Style:   What’s Your Style?

Jeff Shirk

Introduction

Every manager has their own style of management. Some are great at setting goals and helping employees achieve them, while others may be more interested in making sure everyone knows their role and responsibilities. Some managers are better at building relationships with people on all levels of an organization while others prefer limited contact outside their department or team due to time constraints. In this article we’ll explore some different management styles and what they mean so that you can decide which one is best for your organization and its culture!

The classic manager is a leader who works closely with direct reports to execute company strategy and see that objectives are met.

The classic manager is a leader who works closely with direct reports to execute company strategy and see that objectives are met. This style of management is focused on outcomes, so you’ll want to make sure your team knows what they’re supposed to do and when they’re supposed to do it.

The classic manager has regular one-on-one meetings with direct reports to talk about their progress and goals, as well as any other issues that may arise during the course of the day.

This type of manager tends to be focused on outcomes, and has regular one-on-one meetings with direct reports to talk about their progress and goals.

You’re the type of manager who:

  • Is focused on outcomes and has regular one-on-one meetings with direct reports to talk about their progress and goals.
  • Provides guidance, feedback, and resources to help people achieve their objectives.
  • Connects with people outside your department or team when necessary to get things done efficiently.

They may also provide guidance and feedback on how to meet those goals.

A manager can also help you meet your objectives by providing guidance and feedback on how to achieve them.

A good manager will help their employees with their goals by giving them feedback, guidance, and coaching so they know what needs to be done in order for the team to succeed.

If you’re a classic manager, you’re likely someone who is good at planning, establishing priorities and helping employees understand their role in achieving your organization’s goals.

If you’re a classic manager, you’re likely someone who is good at planning, establishing priorities and helping employees understand their role in achieving your organization’s goals. You also have the ability to create relationships with people at all levels of your organization.

Classic managers are focused on outcomes rather than processes or methods. They see what needs to be done and then do whatever it takes to get the job done efficiently and effectively – whether that means working closely with employees or delegating tasks to others on their team as needed.

On the downside, this style can require more time spent in meetings, dealing with bureaucracy and paperwork than some other styles.

Meetings are a necessary part of many jobs and organizations. If your manager is an Analytical, you’ll probably find yourself attending a lot of meetings where the topics are discussed at length before any decisions are made. This can be frustrating for those who prefer to make decisions on their own or those who don’t like having so much time spent on discussions rather than action.

Bureaucracy refers to policies and procedures which make up the rules by which businesses operate; they establish limits on what employees can do at work while also providing support for decision-making processes within organizations (i). Managers with an Analytical style often have a lot of experience working within these types of systems–but if yours doesn’t seem very comfortable with them yet then your job may involve lots of extra work trying to navigate around them! Paperwork refers specifically here not just as forms but also emails; both take time away from actual tasks (and sometimes require multiple responses!) which could otherwise get done faster if handled differently

You may also have an easier time building relationships with people at all levels of your organization, but less time connecting with people outside your department or team due to limited contact opportunities outside of scheduled meetings and events.

There’s no perfect management style; there are just ways you’re better suited to manage than others, such as by being more invested in outcomes rather than procedures

There’s no perfect management style, but there are some that are better suited to certain situations. For example, if you’re more invested in the outcome of your work than the process behind it, then you may be better off with a “results-oriented” or “outcome-focused” style. On the other hand, if your team tends to struggle with tasks because they don’t know where they’re going or how they should do them best–or if they need very clear instructions before getting started–then being more “procedural” might be right for you and your employees.

In addition to understanding which styles are most effective for certain situations and personalities, it’s also important for managers (and employees) alike to understand their own strengths so that they can work within those parameters when necessary or seek out an alternative approach when appropriate.

Conclusion

If you’re a classic manager, it’s important to keep in mind that there are many different styles of management. What works best for one person may not be the best fit for another, and that’s okay! In fact, there are many advantages to being able to adapt your approach based on what works best for each employee or situation.
