Always need to act in a way that builds trust, so, all the time.

Trues is the most important element in managing people. It takes time to build and one mistake to ruin it all.

I have weekly one on one meetings and on project/task bases as much as needed. Always encourage an open door policy and try to visit my employee's workspaces as often as possible.

A lot. It’s foundational.

I try to meet with my constituents on a weekly basis, just to hang out and get to know them. When somebody is getting involved in a new job, I really don't expect that much for at least the first couple of months. It's great when something reasonable comes out of it, but you have to allow people to build a life for themselves at their job where they enjoy coming in every day, or logging in every day.
