===Tendencies that positively affect employees===
*'''Providing challenging work to stimulate employees'''- When employees are stimulated by their work they have more of an incentive to actively try to complete it versus mundane tasks that don't realize any benefits.
*'''Supporting employees’ decisions'''- Encouraging and supporting the decisions that employees make can motivate employees who have low self-esteem and don't find motivation in the same things as their peers.
*'''Coaching and developing employees’ skills'''- Taking the time to coach and develop the skills of the people you work around benefits both sides one gets to learn these skills and the other has the opportunity to master these skills.
*'''Encouraging good relationships'''- Encouraging employees to be vocal with each other about concerns and compliments promotes a culture where frustrations don't build up and cause delays in work.
*'''Recognizing conflict and dealing with its causes'''- Recognizing the roots of your employees' frustrations and working to fix them before they become a company-wide issue alleviates workplace tension and can establish a good morale with employees.

* '''Motivation'''-Managers who understand that different people require types of motivation and cater their assignments toward them prove to be particularly effective.
* '''Leadership skills'''- The skills that managers and leaders require heavily overlap and the main focus in both sets is creating mutual trust and respect between you and your subordinates.
* '''Utilizing the right management style'''- Recognizing what your management style is, allows you to utilize it in a way that matches your employees’ motivation styles.
* '''Being authentic'''- Most adults can recognize a genuine person, and showing the people you work with that you are a trustworthy person who is reliable earns respect.
* '''Safe environments'''- Promoting a workplace culture that encourages everyone to feel comfortable with themselves and the work that they do reaps benefits for everyone.
* '''Setting clear expectations'''- Along with communication skills comes clear expectations, vocalizing exactly what needs to be done and when leaves little room for misunderstandings and excuses for things not to be done.
* '''Consistent feedback'''- Constantly reporting back to your employees on their performance allows you to work with them on problem areas before they become a habit and to analyze and applaud a job well done. Receiving feedback reaps the same benefits for managers as well.
* '''Accepting imperfection'''- The ability to accept limitations and work off of or around them is an important skill that is beneficial in learning how to problem solve in a bind.
