Poll for those working for The Man

[VBM]

This one's for the other guys who 9-5 for a living.

read an old PPT on Leadership by Colin Powell & I was struck by how little of it describes the managers & directors in my group. Which of these apply to your managers, directors, execs?

I answered for the job I quit in January. False on every single one, no exaggeration.

I answered for my last job as well. I think I answer true for the one about hiring based on ability not degrees, false on everything else.

When I started working there I probably would have answered true for at least half if not more.

[Patrick del Poker Grande]

I was able to answer "true" to every question. That's good, right?

[Easy E]

Keep that job

Yeah, it's actually better than that, even. I'm a lucky guy.

I answered "true" to all but two, and both of those were very borderline.

My job rocks.

[Hamish McBagpipe]

Got tired of this after seeing there were still 6 questions left.

The management's vision and priorities are lean and compelling, not cluttered and buzzword-laden.

If by lean and compelling this means 'busy sucking off the people above them' then sure. Otherwise, no. The management of my division just cares about looking good to their managers. It was not this way 5 years ago and i'm getting pretty [censored] sick of it.
