Managers must also work with people to solve problems. This is a challenge because people are unique and have different personalities, needs, goals, desires, and backgrounds. Each individual's personality is a result from heredity, upbringing, schooling or lack of it, family and friends, work, religion, neighborhoods, and experiences.
Managers are also key forces in providing employees with job satisfaction.
When employees do not get satisfaction from their jobs, morale drops and absences and lateness increases. Employee morale involves thoughts, feelings, and sentiments. Before a manager can motivate others, a manager, themself, must be motivated. Finally, a manager should never ask others to do a job or task that they would not do themselves. More and more people joining the workforce today are looking for jobs that not only make money but also have some meaning.
