Identifying the Different Types of Employees (Entrepreneurs, Managers, Technicians) and How to Utilize Them
For decades, companies have had a corporate ladder of promotions and succession planning that has worked by chance, rather than by design. In the process, employees have been mislabeled and put in jobs to work positions they are not most fit for and have been overlooked for those they belong in, simply by “luck”. We now know that there are three different employee types: the entrepreneur, the manager, and the technician; each which holds necessary and inherent value in itself. They are each necessary and special in their own way, and as managers, we must know how to identify and utilize them from an early stage if they are to stay and succeed at our company. Having this mentality, however, starts with support from leadership strategy looking to move forward with this innovative approach to the workforce and culture.
Why Should You Attend
Of the three employee types, most people are one of the three, but rarely more than two of the three. Do you know which employees are which at your organization? It’s not based on where they actually are, but based on where they naturally belong. Misplacement will create extreme inefficiency and lead to less productivity, but proper placement can create a well oiled machine with excellent output.
Objectives of the Presentation
- Understand the character and work traits, and how to identify, the three different types of employees: entrepreneurs, managers, technicians
- Understand how traditional promotion and succession plans don’t adequately address these employee types (it becomes random luck of the draw)
- Know how to use the identification of these, and modern work culture, to utilize these employees to get the most out of them for maximum productivity and success of the business
Areas Covered in the Session
- Who are each of the 3 different types of employees: understanding the entrepreneur, the manager, and the technician; how can you identify each of these?
- What happens if you don’t properly identify your employees to the correct classification?
- How to utilize them once you’ve properly identified them
