We're all flawed, but basically, effective managers are people whose flaws are not fatal under the circumstances. Maybe the best managers are simply ordinary, healthy people who aren't too screwed up.

Decisiveness is the one word that makes a good manager.

In managers, I look for people who can get things done through other people. The most important thing for a good manager is that the people on his team feel like he or she has integrity.

He's a tremendous guy. And what's more, he's virtually a genius in the field of management.

A manager is not a person who can do the work better than his men; he is a person who can get his men to do the work better than he can.

We, as individuals, must be responsible for our careers with the goal of reaching our highest potential. The job of a manager is to tap into that energy that's already there.

Great leaders help their people see how they can directly impact the company's objectives and their own personal goals.

Managers are important: they are leading the company and guiding and have to provide vision and manage the daily business.

Great leadership can be a difficult thing to pin down and understand. You know a great leader when you're working for one, but even they can have a hard time articulating what it is that makes their leadership so effective.
