When it comes to being a boss, you want your employees to respect you. Respect is a two-way street. "You have to show it so you will get it" Employees need to be able to trust their bosses — both in their actions and their words — in order to believe that they can really make a difference for the company and its customers. And in order to give it, bosses need to take the time to build relationships with employees and make sure they know what's expected of them.
It is easy to get annoyed at your employees for being late, or not doing their jobs correctly. But the best way to deal with these problems is by letting them be known and then working on the issues together. Rather than yelling at them or making veiled threats, give them feedback on ways they could improve their performance. You'll find that once you have been honest with your employees, they will be more likely to do things right in the future.
