Take an active interest in how your team behaves, not just what they achieve.
When it comes to people management, too many leaders wait until small issues turn into big problems. A staff member’s behavior change might seem minor at first, but when left unaddressed, it can snowball into conflict, burnout, or poor performance. The truth is, that addressing behavior changes early—when the first signs of trouble appear—can prevent uncomfortable conversations from spiraling into disciplinary actions.
