Having happy and successful staff is a sure-fire way to create a well-run and prosperous organization. In fact, it translates directly into how well you are able to serve your community.
In this eBook, Staff Management for Activities and Rec Organizations: 5 Ways Software Can Help, we’ll focus on how you can be a great manager while saving time on often work-intensive tasks. The goal is that by streamlining these tasks, you can be even more effective in these administrative and operational areas.
With the time you save, you will also be able to spend more time on other important staff management tasks such as:
- Coaching
- Leading by example
- Managing conflicts
We break it down into 5 main strategies:
💪 Building and maintaining a team
Having the right people for your organization and the number of staff you need is a huge management challenge. Between seasonal staff and people switching jobs, moving or going on leave, hiring is a task that you are continuously tackling as a manager.
📅 Finding shortcuts for staff schedules
Knowing who has the right skills, experience and personality for each responsibility, program and task is your superpower as manager. On the other hand, are there aspects that can be made easier by your all-in-one activity and rec management software? Heck yes!
📧 Automating communication
Communication is key! As a manager, you need tools at your disposal that offer quick and efficient ways to get in touch with staff, keep them updated on developments and inform them of the basics, like schedules, pay, and policy updates. Why not automate some of it?
🔑 Giving staff the right access
Equipping staff with what they need is another crucial component of great leadership. These tools allow your staff to maximize their productivity. Making sure they are equipped by helping them have access to the right information and the best software for their role.
🍎 Managing employee learning paths
Creating a structured onboarding and learning track is key to preparing staff for success and an important aspect of your role. When it comes to administrative staff, AKA those who need to handle the software, it benefits you and them to have access to a suite of learning tools.
We aren’t shy about admitting that a human touch, a hands-on approach and personalized style are by no means replaceable with automation or technology. But with the efficiency and convenience that an all-in-one software creates by automating tasks and just making other responsibilities easier for staff managers, this gives you the freedom to decide what you want to do with the extra time you create.
