Common mistakes of the new manager

Summary

Sometimes you get the opportunity that you have wanted for a long time when you are employed in a company in which you have collaborated for a long time, but the question is whether I will do things well, it will be good for me if I try it this way, questions arise to which no answer is found and they fall into those mistakes that they wanted to avoid, but this is a good sign that they are learning, but at the same time it would be good to know what are those mistakes that we should not make to take to the company to success.

introduction

This essay will be based on those most common mistakes that a manager has when developing in this new position, since currently with technological and financial changes, etc. They tend to make mistakes that different managers who have held the position before, and make known how important these small points can be for continuous improvement in the company, in turn can serve as a guide of what these new Managers can do and not do, at the same time managers who are already in the position and are employing them, they can still fall into these small mistakes, so that although it is said, no one is saved.

II. Background

As managers, the fact of recognizing mistakes is one of the most important elements, as human beings we do not have the ability to say "I was wrong" we always try to hide that fear of doing things wrong, without realizing that if the mistake is made It is time to correct it, this has been going on for a long time, this does not arise right now, a clear example today was the mistake that was made in Toyota since how is it possible that an accelerator pedal has been manufactured that is Taking into account all the production and quality controls, this error brought with it 28,200 million in loss, so that the blame could be placed on the production and quality managers, but this could be avoided, since a manager must soak up a little bit of everything,and take the time to verify if everything is working well in your company, because when you have that position, the company turns to them and there is nothing left but to lead it to success.

III. Development

Based on what is mentioned in the investigation of some articles on the internet, I managed to realize that many people spoke about the errors that a new person has in the management position and compiling a little of what one of the articles that contained almost all the points that were discussed in most articles. We have made it clear that we all make mistakes and to tell the truth, managers are not the exception, mistakes serve to correct in a better way where they are wrong. So I took the nerve to select some of the most common mistakes of a new manager.

Not transitioning from junior to manager.

It is really stressful that overnight the new manager has on his shoulders the responsibility for the results of tomorrow and not satisfied with that he has on his shoulders the responsibility for the results of a group of people, not of himself. To become a manager, you need to develop a set of new skills: human skills. Some of the most technically skilled employees can become the worst managers because they fail to make the transition from junior to manager.

Absence of delegation.

The second most common mistake is that as a new manager you fall into the foolishness that they can do everything on their own, that no one is needed, other than their own knowledge. As a manager, you must demonstrate that everyone is elementary in the company and thus learn to delegate functions (BBC, Noticias, 2014) and that not only one person can do the job with this, the work that is done is of higher quality, in addition that a better work area is achieved.

Lack of communication.

Lack of communication in companies is one of the mistakes of a manager, since it is well known that employees will not be told everything, but they must be kept informed about certain things that are happening in the company, we must remember that information is power since managers must use this great element so that their employees feel confident and thus achieve an improvement or the success of the company.

Resist changes.

It should be mentioned that without changes (America Economía, 2012) the company can go bankrupt, we have to recognize that doing the same thing always leads to failure, because end consumers are always bored the same as a manager, it must be taken into account that, It must be led by example because our employees can resist the unknown or the pain that may arise during the transition. It is good to react well to changes, since with these you can get ahead of the competition.

Failing to recognize employee achievements.

One of the most serious problems is that managers do not want to give back to their employees, although most managers agree that it is important to reward them, the mistake is that managers do not spend time on compensation. It is worth mentioning that the most effective recognitions are those that managers do personally and these do not cost anything. Take a minute or two to recognize your employees' accomplishments.

IV. conclusion

Our country or rather our government does implement supports, but it is necessary that it offers financial, machinery, etc. supports. It will implement training support to entrepreneurs of small and medium-sized companies, because if there are SMEs that are directed by people with bachelor's degrees, master's degrees, but it must also be taken into account that most SMEs are directed by people who do not have a career, and that there are even people who do not have the basic knowledge of studies, but nevertheless they have managed to get to where they are out of mere need or improvement, if the government implemented this type of training it would achieve that many people who do not have knowledge of these supports they will become more involved and as mentioned previously, integration would be achieved in both the employer and authority,It should also be noted that President Enrique Peña Nieto is doing a great job with small and medium-sized companies since he has invested a very important amount of resources to achieve the development of SMEs. Regarding foreign growth, Mexico is a country that has good growth expectations in this area, because the government also offers support so that entrepreneurs can take products or services to international countries and thus make themselves known, it is time to take the next step and form an import and export structure that is the engine of national development and employment in the country.
