ADAPT


Far too many managers are “one-trick-ponies.” Early in their careers they had success with one management style and now use it regardless of the situation. The result: They fail to get the most out of their team because they simply lack the skills necessary to handle the complexities of managing people.
The best managers realize that to be truly effective they need to deploy a variety of management styles depending on who they're dealing with and what they're trying to accomplish. They know that a "one size fits all" approach to leadership just doesn't work.
Knowing the business is one thing, managing people is something totally different.

The ability to listen,comprehend,and,then change styles depending on whats needed....I've seen WAY too many managers fail because of "my way or your fired".
