>Let people do what they want to do and stand out of their way.

I don’t think so, and without knowing your story I don’t think you did either.

I’d guess you instead spent your time clearing the way for them to excel.

Servant leadership— it’s the only way and the one endorsed in person by Our Boss.

This is a tool, certainly, but it is like a hammer that has only certain uses and is almost useless in repairing your car. The hammer for driving nails and demo works is great; fixing your watch? Maybe not. As a manager/leader, you need a hammer, precision screwdriver set, etc.

And yes, I’ll take one with pepperoni, sausage and onion, light sauce, hold the heartburn.

I should add that in today’s environment there are many who simply do not want to work. All they want to do is collect a paycheck. I was fortunate that everyone under me wanted to work with the proper motivation. But I have had employees who just wanted to sit around and do the minimum amount of work possible. There was no way to motivate them. And I saw this happening more and more.

I’m glad I’m retired.
