An effective senior- subordinate relationship is determined by the manager’s ability to secure the respect and trust of subordinates toward you as their boss and the company as their employer.

Make it your business to see that they are satisfied with the work they are doing and serving under the conditions that are conducive to their success. Realize that each person who works for you has a family, plans, dreams, desires, and problems, a mortgage and endeavor to treat each person with dignity and respect. Realize that a continuous flow of information and rapport between employees and management is necessary for the simplicity and normal operations.
