AS HOUSEKEEPING SUPERVISOR, WHAT IS YOUR MANAGEMENT STYLE?
Answer tips
Try to avoid labels.
Some of the more common labels, like progressive, salesman or consensus, can have several meanings or descriptions depending on which management expert you listen to.
The situational style is safe, because it says you will manage according to the situation, instead of one size fits all.

I believe in delegating responsibility and authority. I want to give each person the chance to grown and reach for the stars, not be hobbled by low expectations or some ceiling I’ve put into place.
I believe in building a team. Each member of the team should be clear on their role, know where they fit in and feel they can depend on and lean upon others in the team to achieve group goals.
I believe in real-time feedback. If you do something wrong you should know it immediately. If you do something right, you should hear about it right away. The further removed feedback is in time, the less effective it is.
