[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 5682479, member: 23516"] Reality is that about a third of your people will consume most of your time with stupid issues, dumb questions, disciplinary concerns, and the like. They aren't that motivated and usually can't be motivated. Maybe 10 or 15 percent of your top people will kick ass. They are forward thinking, concerned about their performance and the impact their work has on the station, that kind of thing. The rest are scattered in between. Most are decent but all of them have moments when they'll just let you down for no good reason. It was Nick Sagan (I think), of all people who said that his good players wanted to be coached, to be guided, to be given direction. His great players wanted to be coached but also wanted him to be truthful with them, no matter how negative it was. His average players just wanted to be left alone to play. It's the same in the workplace. [/QUOTE]
