One of the saddest failures I’ve observed in my 16 years of business coaching are those individuals who define management as “Getting work done through others”. Walt Disney had it right when he defined management as “The development of people, through work, while having fun.” What a difference in approach!
When adopt Walt’s approach it carries through hiring, interviewing, employee selection, training, company morale, etc. – in short, it affects everything in a positive way.
