From the whole lines of this long post, I only can hear sounds of desperation for control instead of change and this definitely is the raw material for corruption. Whether 'unripe' or 'barren' ni, all I knw is that, we have no credible aspirant onboard.

This never came to me as a suprise. For sometimes past, I was a constant visitor to this Site, until i started noticing their spongy news, and lieportings, i took off. I since then regarded them as CPC entertainers and now APC, while inversely and deliberately instigating bad reputation to both Nigeria and its government.

Very true... Most times i wonder what must have been going on in the minds of those matured ladies. A guy takes you out, call you more than your mum ever could hav prayed, sends you r/card and all the magaish exihibition and you sincerely want to tell me you don't know whats up. You only keep waiting (and praying it never comes) for that day with the 'NO' reply. You are just worst than a scam.! I only will blame the dudes for thinking that those ways leads to a ladies heart and the infallible 'YES'.
CareerRe: What Bad Managers, Good Managers, And Great Managers Do by xpac01(m): 4:25pm On Sep 12, 2014
[quote author=learnine]Bad managers tell employees what to do, good managers explain why they need to do it, but great managers involve people in decision making and improvement."

There might be more to management to that, but I think that's a pretty good start. "Lean management," or the Toyota management system, encourages leaders to live in that "good to great" range (with apologies to Jim Collins).

Bad managers bark orders. They are directive and tell employees what to do, without any explanation or context. I saw a lot of that style of management quite often during my first two years at General Motors (read my previous post about that experience) and the workplace was incredibly dysfunctional, as a result.

There are top-down, "command and control" managers in every type of workplace, unfortunately. Managers who are controlling and have all the answers want their employees to "check their brains at the door," and often say so quite explicitly — or they spread that message in more subtle ways.

At GM, front-line employees complained that they were "hired for their backs and their arms, not their brains." In hospitals, healthcare professionals (even those with master's degrees) have complained, "They just want us to do what we're told." This is not a recipe for quality, productivity, or good customer service.

A friend of mine lives in a high-rise condo building. One example of "telling" was the general manager telling employees that the doors to the resident gym must now be kept closed at all times. For years, previously, the doors had been left open unless a resident wanted privacy and chose to close them.

My friend asked one of the employees, "Why are the doors closed all of the time now?" The employee replied, "I don't know, [the manager] just told us to."

It's disrespectful to just give directives without letting people understand the reason(s) why. There might have very well been a good reason why the doors were now to be kept closed. Had the manager taken just a few minutes to share a reason why, the employees would feel better about themselves and would more likely keep the doors closed. If employees are following directives out of a fear of being "written up," they aren't in a position to provide great service.

A good condo manager would explain why the doors now need to be closed. And, if there wasn't a good reason why, they wouldn't force the change on a whim.
You should have made the definition better by giving regards more to the exceptional employees. So employees if given the chance will only run down your business with some inconsequential ideas..
