The 4 steps in getting more out of employees.

1. Ask them how they could of improved on what they did. What ever is done can be done better a second time. If they have the drive. You're not displease, just want them to grow.

2. Sitting down with them and working together on how to improve performance and grow.

3. Selling the idea that improving will lead to more work/pay.

4. Telling them where they went wrong and telling them it has to be done better in the future.

If all else fails show them the door.

For workers not on site or freelance you adjust the methods of delivery.
