We have a team of 16 amazing staff members. I am looking for the leader who will: 1.
Coach:
The Manager/Receptionist must be a leader in the workplace, you must also be a coach. In a coaching role, you'll provide salon employees with the support they need to succeed in their role. A coach-leader gives the salon employees the opportunities to showcase their work and have others in the workplace acknowledge their skills. A coach meets with individual team members to give feedback. They guide employees through obstacles and celebrate their victories. 2.
Communicator:
It's critical that as a leader, you're also a strong communicator. A leader does not create gossip or drama. A leader does the opposite. You have to be able to effectively communicate, both verbally and in writing, with employees, other leaders, customers, clients and vendors. A successful leader will need to communicate everything from meeting details to a new sales strategy and in a way that inspires their team members. A leader should also be able to give presentations to potentially large groups of people. (Staff meetings) 3. Delegator Is someone who assigns tasks or asks others to take on more responsibilities, often based on business needs. To be an effective leader, you must be able to determine your team members' unique strengths and delegate responsibilities accordingly for productivity. Leaders also delegate new responsibilities to employees to give them opportunities to learn new skills and prove themselves. 4. Strategist Your role as a leader also means you should be able to strategize ways to tackle a project or help the company succeed. As a strategist, you determine the overarching goals of the team and develop the best processes to reach those goals. A strategist also shares their vision with the owner and once the owner agrees they will pass it on to the team. When a leader is a strong strategist, their team will look to them for guidance and the business as a whole will benefit 5. Role Model A role model is someone who acts in a certain way or displays certain values that others want to emulate. As the leader of the organization or a specific department, you should try to model how you expect employees to behave in the workplace, from adhering to policy to interacting with customers and clients. 6. Motivator For many leaders, being a source of motivation to the team comes naturally, as they want to see their team succeed. As a leader, you should know how to encourage the salon team, inspire them to action and help them realize their potential. When a leader can serve as a mentor to their team, it encourages employees to work harder, produce better work and strive for greater responsibility in the workplace. 7. Adaptor As a leader, you must be flexible. Even if you have a busy schedule, there is always the potential for the unexpected to take place, and you must be able to adapt as needed. For instance, a leader may need to be adaptable if an employee calls in sick for work, if a client changes their mind etc, etc. Appearance is important for we are part of the fashion world. Upbeat, Friendly, Professional, customer oriented and attention to detail is a must.
