Practical Ideas For Becoming a Better Middle Manager. “Middle managers are like the middle child of an organization; often neglected by senior managers and blamed by their reports. However, they’re still expected to be as charming as the youngest and simultaneously as responsible as the oldest.

The Past. Remember those weird days, back in the 80s, when therapy was reserved for those lucky few who had money and time to address their issues; or those with serious mental problems that demanded immediate help? And even then, it was sort of a hushed thing—taboo even—no one was going around at dinner parties talking about their recent session with their therapist.

In a recent survey, 97% of 10,000 senior leaders surveyed said that being strategic was the leadership behavior most important to their organization’s success—but another study indicated that fully 96% of leaders say they lack the time for strategic thinking.*. Leadership today is about more than being operationally effective, solving existing problems, and guiding people through the work that needs to be done each day.

Have you ever watched a team member do something clever, solve a problem, or creatively improve a process, then ask them why they hadn’t shared it with the team? Too often, your team’s best thinking remains hidden.

If not, then it’s high time you understand the seriousness of it.

Great leaders understand the value of delegation. When a team leader delegates responsibilities to individual contributors, it illustrates the leader’s belief in their potential—this can save nearly 79 percent of team members from quitting. This also frees up time for leaders to focus on more critical and important areas of the business. As your organization and team grow, so do your responsibilities.

The 'great resignation' and the 'great talent reshuffle' have impacted contact center and customer support staff as much, if not more than, any other part of the workforce. Couple that with a potentially volatile economy and it's clear that organizations must invest in innovative approaches if they want employees who are engaged and informed enough to significantly improve the customer experience and eliminate the high costs associated with agent attrition.
