Regarding managing people, I am lucky to be surrounded by good, smart friends, some of whom own their own companies or have worked in ones and can lend experience.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
I believe one of the best things about managing people is that we can influence lives in a positive way. That's basically what a manager is about. When I can do that, I am very happy.
The toughest thing about managing is knowing your personnel and what it can give you under all conditions.
I've often heard people say that managing creative people is the hardest thing in the world. 'They're never happy, they drive up the cost of things, blah blah blah.' I just manage people the way I always wanted to be managed. That is, to be creatively challenged, but never to be told what to do.
When I finally got a management position, I found out how hard it is to lead and manage people.
I try to help people with management stuff a lot.
Good management has helped me find much of the success I've got.
Well, basically I have a lot of friends because I've been in the business a long time and worked with a lot of people.
I'm lucky to have worked with all the people that I have, and I really love what I do, and that is very important, too.
The key to being a good manager or a good entrepreneur is to pick the right people. Pick the right people, and they'll make you look good.
I'm not really a management-type person. It doesn't suit my personality to be bossing people around.
