Kinda curious; how many people report to you in your company, and are they at will or on a contract with your employer?

 

Next, what defines success in your position, and what methods have you put to work to motivate your team to reach these milestones of success?

8 people report to me in our department, and we are at will. Success is defined as maximized production and hitting weekly production rate quotas. Methods I use are a stacked employee rating system, I keep 1-3s and 4 and 5s not so much. People who reach our team goals get stock options and RSUs and possible merit raises. If 4s and 5s don't listen to my constructive criticism, I look for replacements.

If your turnover rate is low, I bet you pay really, really well.

Aah. You like the hoodie!

Yes, I prefer my coaches like the hoodie, with a dash of emotion when the times are appropriate.

We do, we reward high achieving individuals, our discipline/reward system is top notch. If the same high achieving individuals all of a sudden get to comfortable and start underachieving, I take away some of their rewards, if they don't like it I give the 2s their spot.

You choose to stare ahead stoically rather than try to lift the spirits of the team you are leading. Better yet, pout because you're losing.

Hell, yeah. Alpha as f***. Leader of Men. Strong Silent Type. Internet Tough Guy.

OMG! a 17 -year playoff drought and THIS is what bothers you? That's his style; I don't know how much it affects the outcome, but clapping won't hurt anybody. Do you like his hairdo ? His shoes?

How long have you been in charge of the department, and relative to that, how long have each of the eight people under you been under your management?

I think there's more to his personality than we get to see... He looks robotic with the clapping on TV maybe, but did you see when he was Mic'd up? The guy has energy...

 

I like McDermott...

That covets anything from the director of Lockheed's Skunk Works to a shift supervisor at the local McDonalds.

10 years, 4 of my key guys have been here 8 yrs, 1 has been here 5, and the other 3 around 2, the last 3 are relatively new because other members weren't cooperating.

Manufacturing, that's all I'm saying.
