If you're a boss, you know that every day is a challenge to do better. This tip is based on the same research I used to develop my programs and the Working Supervisor's Support Kit .
Accentuate the positive
Positive comments create positive energy and better performance. Notice improvement, effort, and good results. Mention them. Praise them.
If you find these tips helpful, you should consider
purchasing my Working Supervisor's Support Kit.

Oh how I agree Wally! I have so many memories of working for bosses who thought they didn't need to say anything unless I was getting it wrong.
Eventually I would ask for feedback and they would tell me how well I was doing and how highly they regarded me. But I'd been in limbo for such a long time that a lot of the joy of the work had been eroded. We all need encouragement!
By the way I love having a spellchecker for comments - perfect for people like me!

Thanks for sharing that, Wendy. I think your experience is like that of many others.
