Allow them ownership/accountability. Ask them what they need to improve their ability to function. Let them set their goals and reward them with their identified needs when they meet them. An example would be a food server needing more glassware to serve clients better. They set a goal of selling five desserts each shift for two weeks. When they meet this, reward them with additional glassware. I found that they set higher goals than I would as a manager. The sales increase, and they feel they made an impact and are rewarded. It's a winning scenario for all.

One thing you must remember is in order to hold subordinates accountable in their role, they must know what is expected. What are they responsible for? If you don't know the scope of your job duties, it's a setup for failure, you and them! Define ambiguous job duties that fall under "As Assigned". Let them understand with descriptive task lists and how it's done. Test it after training...train again...implement and run it. The true test is whether you are present or 100 miles away, they can run it! ??♀?
