Managers provide regular feedback to employees on how they are doing. Managers are often evaluated by their subordinates. Managers facilitate discussions at meetings on how performance can be improved and invite questions from their employees. Meetings are designed to encourage two-way communication. Employees make their own work assignments, schedule work, provide training, review performance, and decide on work procedures.
Managers encourage free and open communication between higher management and employees.
Anyone can speak to anyone t any time about anything. No one is allowed to be a supervisor or manager who does not have excellent skills for dealing with people. There are many levels of management. The basic organizational unit is the functional department. Meetings seldom occur across levels or between departments or functions.
