Throughout my career, I have successfully managed teams consisting of psychologists, social workers, and counselors in various behavioral health settings. My approach involves clear communication, setting achievable goals, and providing ongoing support and training. I ensure that each team member understands their role and how it contributes to our overall objectives, fostering a collaborative and supportive environment.

When a team member is underperforming, I first identify the root cause through one-on-one discussions and performance reviews. I then work with them to develop a tailored improvement plan, which may include additional training, clearer goals, or more frequent feedback. My goal is to support their growth and ensure they have the resources needed to succeed, while also maintaining the team's overall performance standards.

Ensuring compliance involves regular training sessions, audits, and maintaining thorough documentation of all procedures. I also foster a culture of compliance by regularly updating the team on new regulations and best practices. By integrating compliance checks into our daily routines and encouraging open communication about any concerns, I ensure that our team remains compliant and provides the highest standard of care.

In a fast-paced environment, I prioritize tasks based on their impact and urgency, using tools like Gantt charts and project management software. I also ensure clear communication with my team about deadlines and expectations. By regularly reviewing progress and adjusting plans as needed, I can effectively manage multiple projects without compromising on quality or efficiency.

In a previous role, I faced a situation where a key team member resigned unexpectedly, causing a significant disruption. I quickly reassigned tasks, provided additional support to the remaining team members, and expedited the hiring process to fill the vacancy. By maintaining open communication and demonstrating leadership during this period, I ensured that the team remained focused and the impact on our clients was minimized.
