Management is not sexy, get back to basics.

It hard to motivate others if you don't talk with them.

Managers who's teams are not performing well stop doing the right things and look for the quick fix.

Their time is consumed with non effective activities rather than stopping and deciding "what is the right thing to do".

Teams need to be lead from the front. Start regular One on One's, Coaching and feedback. Communicate to your people regularly about performance and give feedback around effective behaviors, coach for better performance and measure the steps.

What gets measured gets done!..
