[QUOTE="59 Dano, post: 1912343, member: 23516"] Nothing much to disagree with there. The best manager I've had in my life kept it pretty simple. She would explain our goal, describe how we were expected to arrive at it, and remind us that we are held accountable for our performance. She would then ask us what we needed, if anything, to do what was expected of us. Your description of a manager is very good. The only problem with it is that it doesn't matter to a certain group of employees. You can tell one of those guys about a deficiency in his work. He'll deny it. You can provide an example of it. He'll deny it. You can print out the cold, hard, and undeniable data and show it to him. He'll just say that anyone can sit behind a desk and conjure up a bunch of numbers, blah blah blah. Some people are just too hard to put up with. Eh, it works sometimes. Other times, employees will promise to do a better job, but they aren't the ones that are the problem! One other thing. A good manager usually knows the answer before he asks the question :D [/QUOTE]
