Here are the other sides of that coin, to balance out your utopian vision of management:
- Who has the unchecked authority to blame others for their mistakes?
- Who will take direct credit for the work of others?
- Who's going to write a bad performance review of someone they don't like that much?
It goes both ways!
- mharroun 7y agoEasy to answer >Who has the unchecked authority to blame others for their mistakes? No one, its done by committee and/or senior leadership, the team/department with no seat at the table is always at a disadvantage. >Who will take direct credit for the work of others? A managers job is to distribute credit and shield blame/failure. This may sound generic but its true... a managers true strength/power/greatness or what ever other BS comes from the strength of their reports. Its extremely short sited to not pass on credit and grow those under you. >Who's going to write a bad performance review of someone they don't like that much? A good manager tries to be very objective and doesn't bring personal opinion into reviewing performance. I have had people who I did not like personally who i brought though multiple jobs... good managers respect effective people not people they can get a drink with after work.
