I have the advantage of training before taking over the entire branch, so in that time, I plan to learn as much as possible and solidify my management approach. As it currently stands, however, my management style is democratic and relies heavily on feedback from my associates. This provides me with a perspective that is closer to the customers, and it also allows me to involve the whole team in the direction of the branch. I also emphasize communication and an open-door policy so that employees can always come to me with feedback and concerns, but I maintain a position as leader of the team.
