Be a popular manager... NOT!

Sometime managers or leaders forgets that the post they are given is not a contest. If it is, they have already won it. So don't run for it. Stop playing nice, and do your duty.


When you are made a manager, you are given responsibilities, whether to manage a project to its completion or to manage human resources. However, many times with newbie managers, its seen that they start working on the wrong direction. Trying to be the nice guy, at the price of lost of time, energy or money. In this direction, the person diverts from the initial goal, growth of the company.

As a manager several times you got to make decisions that are going to cause anxiety among your pupil, but remember you are made the leader because you have seen more, done more. If you think you have taken the right decision, in honesty to your job, go with your gut. The crown is already on your head, and there won't be a SMS voting, so stop trying to get popular.
