@stevegis_ssg I feel like parenting and supervising people are very similar, and that I got better at supervising after I was a parent. When a subordinate needed correction, I started thinking "hmm, is what I'm about to say the way I'd respond if it was my kid?"
And like you say, praising people for good work really helps. I remember every time I was thanked for a good job. And, maybe more importantly, remember to tell who ever is in charge of raises/bonuses that someone did a good job.

@stevegis_ssg I've had a coworker come to me later and say "Hey, the boss said you said I did a good job, thank you". It helps build a team up.
