If you show dedication to the organisation and work honestly and hard, your staff are likely to do the same. Don\u2019t expect them to do what you would not do.<\/li>\n<li>Be accountable. If you are accountable for your actions, it&#8217;s easier for your employees to take responsibility and be accountable for theirs.<\/li>\n<li>Give feedback.

Provide frameworks on what needs to be done without dictating how tasks need to be achieved.<\/li>\n<li>Show your human side and demonstrate empathy, humour and humility.
