The admirable behavior is cultivating an inner circle with permission to be brutally honest. What the leader does with that information is a whole other matter and not the subject of my post. <BR/><BR/>Thanks again,<BR/><BR/>JimAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327900069847576688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10690613.post-76826435678242840382008-06-02T23:41:00.000-05:002008-06-02T23:41:00.000-05:00Jim, another good trait in a manager is attention ...Jim, another good trait in a manager is attention to detail. You wrote this post on 5/21/2008. Surely by now there has been sufficient time to observe the correct spelling of Obama's first name as Barack and not "Barak".<BR/><BR/>Also, are you recommending the use of deception and falsehood as admirable traits?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10690613.post-80201880780277511342008-05-28T17:00:00.000-05:002008-05-28T17:00:00.000-05:00Anonymous:Of course not, and that's not the point ...Anonymous:<BR/><BR/>Of course not, and that's not the point of the post. The Clinton reference was a setup for a discussion of why managers, including your manager, should empower someone to speak candidly to them. I welcome comments on the subject matter of my posts, even and especially those who disagree. Feel free to come out from behind your anonymity and let's discuss the workplace instead of throwing insults, shall we?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12327900069847576688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10690613.post-65708416428589837372008-05-28T16:37:00.000-05:002008-05-28T16:37:00.000-05:00I take it from your first paragraph comments about...I take it from your first paragraph comments about Hillary Clinton that you must know her personally.
