1) Are You Surrounded By Success?
 
One of the secrets to being a successful manager or a business owner is to surround yourself with the right people. When I was the general manager of a business that generated 7 million dollars per year in revenue, I made sure to surround myself with a management team made up of people that I felt were better managers than me or had the potential to be a better manager than me.
 
I noticed that most of my peers, were insecure about their positions, and hired people that could not replace them or trained their management team to be dependent on them. As a manager, my goal was to find the best people, provide them with the best training possible, and get them promoted to general manager as soon as they were ready.
  
At no time was I ever worried about job security or being replaced by someone I hired and trained. After all, if I could find and produce the most talented managers for the company, I knew that I would be considered a valuable asset and a top manager. In fact, with this philosophy I went on to be the top GM in a company with 150 locations and 150 general managers and thousands of assistant managers. Considering the fact that I was with the company for only 2 years and 22 years old at the time, and earning more than all of the other managers (the majority of them being much older than me), this was quite an achievement. My staff consisted of 10 assistant managers, and 150 employees.
 
I can thank my best friend's father for his advice that he gave me and my best friend early on in life. Mr. Watson told us, "Guys, if you hang around dumb people - you tend to do dumb things, and people will look at you as dummies. But if you hang around smart people - you tend to do act smarter, and people will treat you as such. So hang around smart people!"
 
I was just a kid when I learned that lesson, and that piece of advice has helped me succeed in my business and personal life. What kind of people do you surround yourself with? How do you want to be looked at? As the mediocre manager with a mediocre management team and mediocre staff, or the great manager with a great management team and a great staff?
 
BOTTOM LINE:
If you want to be one of the GREATS, then surround yourself with great people.

4) 6 Success Tips For Managers
 
When dealing with employees, it is important for you to know that people do not want to be managed. People want to be led. So even though you are a manager of your business, you need to be a leader of your people. The President of the United States is considered a World Leader, not a World Manager. Keep this in mind when dealing with your employees.
 
When you enter your business, take the time to shake the hand of each employee. Depending on the type of business you are in, it may be the only chance certain employees will have to see you and interface with you. Taking 15 minutes to walk around and shake the hand of each employee lets them know that you care about them and consider them an important part of your business day.
 
Treat each employee as if they were your most valuable asset. After all, they are. Think of the time and effort that you put forth to hire and train them. If you treat your employees like gold, just think about how well they will treat your customers.
 
When dealing with your employees, be firm but fair. Your employees may not always agree with you, but if your are Firm But Fair, they will always respect you.
 
Be consistent. If you have to enforce company policies, make sure to be consistent and don't play favorites with your employees.
 
Always give away compliments and feedback to your employees. Compliments are free, and should be given away whenever you have the opportunity to give them. Feedback is important so that the employees know if they should improve in a certain area of their duties.
