3. Create a fair and supportive environment
“The more you know and the more interest you show, the more you will be respected. I live and work by the ‘6 C’s and encourage my staff to do the same: Confidence, Courage, Commitment, ‘Can do’ attitude, Communication and Creativity.
I like to create a great working environment where the staff meals are good and people want to work together. Chat with your staff, know their names and say thank you. It makes a big difference. Without my team, I’m nothing, so I try to do as much as possible for them to be happy in their jobs.”
