re: Tips on being a supervisor/manager/leader

Some people may not work well under those conditions, but the expectations are well known before they step foot into my region. People have a choice and I'm certainly not forcing them to work for me or the company that I represent.

I can see that, and I understand what you are saying.

It all comes down to every single one of us projecting what we think are the best routes, and I have always had a hard time managing when the company wants me to micro-manage. I'm in that situation now with one of my jobs, and I've had the two week notice printed up for a while now, I just still need the money.

My specialty has always been planning, putting people in the best position to succeed, executing, and sharing praise while protecting my people from needless bitch fests. If I have someone that doesn't play well with others and is not an elite talent, I usually want that person gone anyways. Being a team player is always underrated.
