> The only thing that matters is - Have you personally implemented your ideas in the real world or not? Yes. And I have made the mistake of "being a dictator" early in my career, only to learn that collaboration and valuing team members yields success much more often than me unequivocally imposing my viewpoint due to reporting structure. > It is irrelevant what you can "confirm" about me and my views - what a pompous thing to say! If you have management philosophies which differ from the limited communications in this thread, then obviously I am unaware of them until and unless you decide to share them here. Until such time, all I can do is draw conclusions from what you have posted thus far. As to "what a pompous thing to say!" This is the second time in this thread you have projected a judgemental position regarding my prose. The first time can easily be rationalized as perhaps a reaction "in the moment" or a poor choice of words. Now that you have done so again, I have to surmise the origin resides in yourself.
