The role of line managers has changed drastically in the last couple of decades. A good line manager is capable of ensuring harmonious and fair workplace relations whereas a bad line manager could reinforce bad practice and drive employees from the workplace. It is important that line managers project a positive role model. • Has it ever occurred to you that you may have a positive influence on someone else’s life? • It may sound strange but people are often watching us and we may not be aware of this. The more we do things right, the more our colleagues will look at us as a positive role model. Role models • In most instances people tend to admire and like to be influenced by someone who has integrity and excels in what they do. Often in life when we have a vision for something greater and we work towards that vision we become a positive role model for others. • When we value ourselves, believe in and respect ourselves, people tend to notice the difference. • Being a role model is not an easy job and sometimes it is not something you have chosen to do. People may just look up to you because you are someone who stands out. Perhaps you choose to do your best everyday regardless of the circumstances and if you make mistakes you pick yourself up and try again and again. Role models Here are some strategies you can use to become a positive role model: • Maintain your composure under pressure • Be diplomatic, straight forward, sensitive and respectful • Set clear values • Work to overcome obstacles • Don’t walk out on discussions because you find them difficult • Combine honesty with tact and grace • Educate with example not by empty words • Respect feelings of others when expressing your own (continue..) . Role models Here are some strategies you can use to become a positive role model: (continue..) • Share your knowledge for the benefit of all • Insist on focusing and finding solutions • Lead with dignity and compassion • Don’t end a friendship or relationship after the first argument • Transform conflict into open conversation • Have intentions that reflect everyone’s best interest, not just your own • Approach people on their level without being condescending • Refuse to respond to threats with aggression or force • Remember that you are part of the human community. . Role models Successful leadership With any style of leadership, it is the team members’ willingness to follow the leader’s directions that counts. A good leader recognises that there are times when a balance of styles works more effectively than any single style. Shared/participative and empowering leaders are more likely to have highly motivated employees working with them. High levels of interaction, encouragement and support offered by these leaders increases motivation levels. Positive reinforcement and recognition for accomplishments raises the self-esteem of members and enhances commitment. Role models Positive reinforcement • Leaders should be present to observe the action and respond immediately. • Leaders should be aware that non-verbal behaviours will impact the reinforcement. • Positive reinforcement should be repeated consistently, using different methods. • It is a mistake only to reinforce negatives. Role models Some examples of organisational requirements are: • The organisation's vision, goals, objectives and priorities • Business and performance plans • Systems, processes and requirements for quality assurance • Specific change initiatives • Legal requirements, for example, occupational health and safety and anti-discrimination legislation • Standards (such as for ethical behaviour) and protocols • Confidentiality and security requirements • Defined resource parameters. Understanding organisational requirements Every organisation has plans and requirements that determine how it will progress into the future. The strategic planners and management of the organisation, in consultation with staff, determine most of these requirements. Others are externally imposed, such as the legislation the organisation is required to comply with.
