The subordinate manager should be informed of broad objectives, planning grounds and line of attack of the company. The superior should then talk about with the subordinate about the objectives, which he can carry out, time frame for them and the wherewithal required. The viability of such goals for the business should also be discussed. The superior has to play an imperative role while interacting with the subordinate. He should ask questions like what will be his input for the achievement of the organizational goals? How can he perk up his position? What are the snags he faces in reaching his objectives? What changes does he look forward to from the superior? And so on.
