Increasing Confidence and Self-Esteem

The process of helping employees develop confidence and gain self-esteem is approached in the much the same way you would develop it in a child. Start small (baby steps), provide lots of encouragement (nurturing), help them recover from any errors by treating errors as learning experiences (pick up and dust off after they fall down), back away slowly (start letting go) and encourage them to work toward independence (let them do things on their own).
