The single biggest decision you make in your job — bigger than all the rest — is whom you name manager. When you name the wrong person manager, nothing fixes that bad decision. Not compensation, not benefits — nothing.

Gallup CEO Jim Clifton

Behaviors which may hold us back from becoming a good leader:

1. Managers who take all the credit

2. Managers who are MIA

3. Managers who treat people as objects

4. Managers who act on impulse

5. Managers who don’t share information

6. Managers who micromanage
