Taking Care of Staff part 3 – Supportive Management

Your employees are your business asset. As a business owner, it is your responsibility to encourage and motivate them. When an employee believes that their employee will take care of their needs, they will be willing to loyally stand by the business, through good and bad times. Offer incentives such as a bonus, gift hampers, or even health insurance. If you offer them support and make them feel secure, they will be one of the most positive assets to your salon.

Managing staff is not an easy job. Be friendly with your staff, avoid confrontations when you are dealing with issues, allow them leaves on holidays or when sick, etc. The more flexible you are, the more willing they will be to go the extra mile.
