- Acknowledge a job well done-show or tell them that you appreciate them and their performance.
- Make an effort to get to know staff. Simply ask if they had a nice weekend or invite a newbie out to lunch.
-Never criticize or punish in public. If someone deserves criticism or being punished, do so in private or with only another manager present. Also document the discussion and the outcome. Properly address mistakes to build teamwork in nursing.
