In what ways, does a manager show respect toward their employees?
140919
A manager can show respect to his or her employees by allowing them to determine the best way to to their jobs.\n\nThe best manager I ever had said to me, "What can I do to help you accomplish your tasks more easily?  Is there anything I can do to facilitate your job?  If so, let me know."\n\nHe then would leave me alone to get my work done.  He gave me goals and a time to get them accomplished, but didn't micromanage every detail - he let me work out the best way to reach my goals and was available if I needed him to, say, talk to someone in another department to get input or a resource.  I was very empowered in my position and the respect went both ways.

I appreciate when my employees are up front with me.  If they have been working hard and deserve a raise, I don't hesitate.  On the other hand, if I have an employee who doesn't show up on time and leaves early, no chance.\n\nSo if you feel like you deserve a raise, be confident when asking and you will be rewarded.

Talk to the boss, she may not realize that her tone and mannerisms can be construed to be less than acceptable, especially when counseling/ coaching employees. \n\nSome, not most, bosses have a "better than you" attitude, perhaps as a defensive mechanism to shield themselves from ambitious subordinates.\n\nA good boss is a partner with his/her subordinates, recognizing that their (the bosses) success depends on the subordinates, the reverse is just a true. \n\nFind a time when there is little or no stress, in a neutral place (possibly over lunch - that would be a first, an employee asking a supervisor to lunch), couch the request in such a way so as not to cause the boss to look for ulterior motives - "I have a personal problem that I would like to discuss with you. Is lunch convenient?"

I had a great boss at my last workplace.  Here are some of the reasons why I thought so:\n\n1. Led by example.  He treated the office as a family, cared about the people, and he was personally very committed and hard working therefore, the people tended to be more committed and hard working.  We actually worked with a sister company under the same president and CEO.  just the two division were run day to day by different General Managers.  Yet this culture and attitude of the two divisions was night and day, and I definitely attribute the better working environment to the personality of our General Manager (my boss).\n\n2. Had an open door and fought to get rid of the institutional/corporate roadblocks for me to be able to accomplish my job.\n\n3. Unafraid to make tough decisions and stand up for them.  Overall, I think leadership has a lot to do with character and confidence.  Confident and secure people tend to not be the ones who fly off the handle for no reason and are unafraid to be decisive and not waffle about.

you cant 'make' people like you. they either do or they dont.i have a friend "Al", nobody seems to like the guy and when he kisses the bosses arse it makes things worse for him cuz he losses the respect of fellow workers. me? I tend not to give a hoot what the boss thinks of me (or what my co-workers think of me for that matter).\ni just do my job and do it well and guess what? the boss and my co-workers tend to like me alot. go figure...

well,  it depends if they were close to me or not.  being a leader is something that i do in a job.  i try to be fair with friends and family. and I'm always open for suggestions, from co-workers and friends.  so if asked, i would just be more polite about my bossiness

Some bosses don't compliment people that do good job because somehow maybe they feel insecure about this person whom they know that may take over his or her position in that particular company or corporation etc. This specified boss  may also don't like the way other people compliment  his or her employee cause sometimes this bosses  become green-eyed monsters,or this bosses just don't see the dedication shown by person's effort cause they focus  on the work itself than the persons who make this work more wonderful and impressive.

Respect them and learn by their example.

Many businesses would thrive better if employees were treated kindly but firmly and praised for their efforts when they do well. Taught that any insubordination or bad manners will not be tolerated. Monthly meetings would be a good idea. Also an open invitation to discuss any problems or to welcome new ideas.

As with ALL managers, REMEMBER your people !!!!!  They are what make you strong,   Depend on their knowledge, listen to them, don't be over-bearing.\n\nYour people know more about  their job than you do.  Listen to them.  Don't be too proud to ask them why they do what they do.  Let them explain it to you.....LEARN from then.  Respect them!!!!!

Bring them up to be kind, considerate and not to judge others.

If they are good managers they don't. If they are successful, competetant and confident they know they are only as good as their employees. That's why good managers realize they actually work for you _ to be a point of escalation, to help resolve a problem, to get you on a good career path.  Lousy Managers, are threatened by good employees and that's where you get that disconnect. They want an escalation to make you look bad, or take over a problem because youcouldn't handle it.

A great manager must "walk his/her talk". He/She must be compassionate, yet able to "detach" from emotions when necessary-typically when having to deal with a negative situation. Must be a good listener. And not just LISTENING but actually HEARING what one is saying. A manager must be "teachable" himself, not thinking that as he/she is the manager, they know all. A positive attitude is a must. The ability to let go-delegate, not control. A great manager must be flexible, knowing he/she is dealing with people - not positions - and that each person requires a different type of management "style"

I think it could be a mistake to "gain respect in society."  Society can screw itself.  If you "need" society's respect, they have power over you.  Do you want to be in that situation????  \n\nOnly you can truly know if you are worthy of respect.  Whether they in society respond to you with respect can sometimes be in error.  Some of the most respected people, say in a corporate work situation, are complete idiots--not worthy of any respect at all, yet they are shown respect for all the wrong reasons. \n\nAnd who in society do you want respect from?  If you want respect from hip-hop rappers, then get some gold teeth, grab your crotch liberally, and wear pants that are falling to your knees.  If you want respect from slimy salesmen, go work at a car dealership and make the most bonus of any person that week....\nDo you want respect from people in the local church?  That works great until you disagree with one of their beleifs.........\n\nThe most important thing is that you become a person who respects himself--regardless of others.  That is truly of value.  If you are looking for respect as a commodity, to be used as a tool for getting stuff from people, then I poo-poo it.\n\nSo you need to define what qualities in yourself are worthy of respect.  Curb the habits and things about you that you don't respect, or accept that some things will never change and you are who you are.  It will be a mix of both--each of us is different, so you might as well embrace it.

why would think there would be harrasment?  You do your job professionally and don't try and milk the system, and you'll be awarded the respect you deserve.
