If You Aren’t A Good Manager, You should Consider Joining A Monastery, My Friend !

I will state it again for effect, in a different way though : You will not be able to run a business, build a brand, make profits or help people if you do not know how to manage them.

I had been an employee and I am now an employer, now that gives me a two-way point of view to dwell on. It goes like this – employers want results and employees are paid to deliver those results while everything leads to blowing up that bottom line on your P & L sheet. Employers will recruit managers to deliver those results – through channels, partners, sales force and a lot more.

If you were a manager like that ( a business person with a team of 10 people working for him falls into the same category, so you’d still have to pay attention ) you would have to think about each member of the team as a separate but yet very unique individual and that your ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach won’t work here.

You got to think about each person, his personality type and how he responds to your antics, your experiments with people management. Its simple – if he ain’t listening to your abuse, he won’t take that from you. You have deal him in another way.

Most managers don’t get this. They abuse, bully, play ego-wars and live a loser’s life. Think about your approach to people management again. If your people don’t even want to see your face while doing business, you are in for a bad life.
