Some managers simply should not be managers. Their misbehavior is not a function of misunderstandings or misdirected good intentions. It is a function of lack of talent (or sometime neurosis). Lacking the appropriate four-lane highways in their minds, they will forever make poor decisions. They will forever mistrust, overshadow, abandon, intrude and stifle. They have to. It’s in their nature. Neither you nor this book nor weeks of sensitivity training will give them the strengths, the self-esteem and the security they need to be a great manager.
