Manager Sabotage

2/17/2025
Management is a privilege that comes with incredible responsibility.
Managers are accountable for financial considerations and to be the front line protectors of the organization.
They also have a responsibility to develop their employees underneath them, and to serve them – to give the employees the absolute best chance as possible for success.

High performing employees are threats to those they work under.
It’s a ‘dog-eat-dog’ world.
If you’re being eaten, it’s time to look for a new position.
13-16 degrees, clouds. And shoveling. The snow didn’t stop over the weekend.
