“As a manager/leader of people, what do know now, that you wish you knew when you started?”
I recently posted this question in a number 
of groups on LinkedIn to get a discussion going on management development. I’m getting lots of great answers, like this one from Steve Ibanez of NY (used with his permission).
“Having come up through the ranks in a technical field, the hardest thing for me to learn was that having the answer isn’t always the best response”
and these:
“nothing prepared me for [the] importance of building relationships“
“being respected is more important than being liked“
Just how did you learn all those things you know now? Part of it came from your natural inclinations and abilities. If you haven’t yet taken the opportunity to find out your own unique “People Management Personality(tm),” you can still order it (at no cost) here. Don’t miss out on being one of the 1st 25 people who will get their biggest question answered about their own profile, again, at no cost.
