As a manager you will constantly be faced with people’s problems – whether they relate to workplace performance or be of a personal nature. Staff members might come to you with their troubles or you might become aware that all is not well and that something must be done about it. Additionally, as a senior employee, you may want to create a relationship with junior staff for the purpose of fostering their career development. In other words, your role as manager will normally involve mentoring, coaching, and counseling.
