3 ESSENTIAL STEPS TO SUCCESSFUL SCHEDULING
  • Managing an organization and the workers who are
    part of it can be a thrilling adventure filled
    with enriching and rewarding experiences.
    Nonetheless, it is not a simple job, but there is
    a lot you can do to ease your management yoke,
    especially when it comes to employee scheduling.
    One such thing would be to create or download
    an employee schedule template which will save you
    the need to create new schedules from scratch.
  •  
  •  If you are wondering how a downloaded monthly
    or weekly schedule template works, a downloadable
    template is usually designed in a way that makes
    it easy to customize and edit. In short, if you
    normally schedule your employee weekly, you would
    be able to download and personalize a weekly
    schedule template to your standards, or the
    standards of your business.

  • In addition to using a schedule template, below
    is a compilation of some of the best management
    tips to help you increase your efficiency as a
    manager
  • 1. Knowing your team
  • Knowing your team is a must if you are to
    succeed in your managerial duties. The first step
    into this is to list down each and every employee
    that is working under you or for your department.
    This can easily be achieved by downloading
    a schedule template which you can use to list
    down their names, skills, qualifications,
    contacts, and any other information you feel is
    relevant. Most managers prefer downloading
    an excel schedule template for this, but if you
    prefer a word schedule template, you can easily
    get that too.
  • 2. Involve employees
  • Involve employees by giving them a chance to
    choose their preferred shifts. Allowing employees
    to voice their preferences can be a very
    effective way of promoting a collaborative
    environment in the office. This is also known as
    self-scheduling, but it should come with clear
    guidelines for it to be a success. For example,
    all employees must choose a given number of the
    less preferred shifts, such as night shifts.

  • In addition to this, when you already have an
    idea on the preferences of your employees, you
    will be able to automatically schedule them in a
    way that is convenient for them and the business
    as well, saving a lot of time and effort in the
    process. Employee availability can be stored in
    calendar format, or you can simply use a word
    schedule template or an excel schedule
    template to do so.  
  • 3. Planning for the worst
  • Whenever you design a work schedule, be wise and
    consider the emergency factor. A good schedule
    should include an emergency plan, or a plan B.
    This way, you wont have to worry yourself sick
    whenever an employee fails to show up. With a few
    adjustments here and there, an employee schedule
    template will make a good tool for creating and
    filing an emergency schedule.
