Manager should be a mentor for his team . The success of the team depends of the captain of the team how he or she motivates the team to drive efficiency and overall effectiveness 

Following a fair way of recognising and reward should be introduced 

Alining the KPI's of individual employees with the KPI's of business based on SMART objectives 

S- Specific 

M- Measurables 

A- Acheivable 

R- Realistic 

T- Time bound 

 

Manager should be doing the TNA ( Training Need Analysis ) Skill Gap Analysis to find out what kind of assistance and support the team need for effective performance of the team
