• Traits of a good manager

• Managers act as the backbone of the organisation
  as they are responsible to manage everything
  within an organisation. However, in addition to
  possessing knowledge of the field, the managers
  must possess sound business ethics. Here are some
  basic workplace ethics that differentiate a good
  manager from a manager

3
Respect for subordinates

• An organization gains success through its
  employees hard work and fortitude. Hence, it is
  the duty of an organisation to respect and value
  its employees. A manager plays a key role in
  keeping the workforce motivated. A manager
  evaluates the performance of employees, rewards
  them and ensures to provide better working
  conditions which in turn, enhance their
  motivation as well as productivity. If employees
  are provided with all the facilities, they will
  remain loyal and honest towards the company.

4
Equal treatment

• Every individual working in an organisation must
  be treated equally. Neither nepotism nor
  favouritism should be promoted by the managers as
  that can cause conflict among the employees.
  Rules and regulations must be the same even for
  the managers or the team leaders and no one
  should not take advantage of their position.

5
Giving personal space to employees

• Being strict with employees is expected from
  managers but they shouldnt be too much austere.
  This will let the employees lose their interest
  from the organisation. Employees are mature
  enough to know about their targets and how to
  achieve them. Keeping a continuous check on the
  employees and not providing their personal space
  can act as a loss for an organisation. Being too
  strict with someone will force them to be
  skeptical about working in that place. So,
  managers must be friendly with the employees and
  respect their personal space.

6
Giving ample recreation opportunity

• It is the duty of an HR manager to ensure that
  the employees are satisfied with their job. An
  organisation must offer holidays or trips to
  their employees so as to keep them enthused
  towards their work. This will make them feel
  happy and theyll become loyal towards their
  workplace. Working tirelessly for an entire year
  keeps the employee at stress. So, it is the duty
  of HR professionals to provide them with
  recreation opportunities so that they can refuel
  and work at their optimum productivity level.

7
Clearly explaining the companys policies to the
employees

• A hierarchy must be followed in an organisation
  to avoid any kind of chaos in the lower level.
  For this, the companys policies must be clearly
  communicated to the employees so that they are
  clear about everything.
