Stop being conned by the old mantra that says, 'Leaders are cool, managers are dweebs.' Instead, follow the Peters Principle: Leaders are cool. Managers are cool too!
Tom Peters
Image
The net effect of increasing scale, centralization of capital, vertical integration and diversification within the corporate form of enterprise has been to replace the 'invisible hand' of the market by the 'visible hand' of the managers.
David Harvey

In high school I was the manager of the football team, so being around boys is natural to me!
Hillary Scott

The increase of this efficiency is essentially the problem of the manager, and the amount to which it can be increased by proper study is, in most cases, so great as to be almost incredible.
Henry Gantt

Every good leader is part manager and every good manager is part leader.
Condoleezza Rice

I was playing organ at a silent movie house at Harlem and they'd be showing some death scene on the screen. Likely as not, I'd grab a bottle and start swingin' out on 'Squeeze Me' or 'Royal Garden Blues'. The managers complained but, heck, they couldn't stop me!
Fats Waller

I'm the same as maybe six or seven people in every ten - I can't take f***ing criticism.

Pop managers are fixed in the dramatic stock character repertoire too, ever since the first British pop film musical, Wolf Mankowitz's 'Expresso Bongo' of 1959, with Cliff Richard as Bongo Herbert and Laurence Harvey as his manager. The key components were cast as X parts gay, X parts Jewish and triple X opportunistic.

My manager and my agents, they go over my contracts.

A leader leads by example not by force.
Sun Tzu

I chose to be in this job and things don't always go your way. But I'll keep going. As a manager you have to be optimistic and think things are going to get better.
Graeme Souness
Image
People should be hired as is and their managers then help them to develop their individual strengths while completing tasks for which they have the greatest aptitude and in which they have the greatest interest.
Marcus Buckingham

The Macintosh having shipped, his next agenda was to turn the rest of Apple into the Mac group. He had perceived the rest of Apple wasn't as creative or motivated as the Mac team, and what you need to take over the company are managers, not innovators or technical people

Telephone message on his manager's answering machine shortly before dying of heroin overdose: I need help bad, man.

Managers’ typical response to my argument about free time is, ‘That’s all well and good, but there are things I have to do.’ Yet we waste so much time in unproductive activity—it takes an enormous effort on the part of the leader to keep free time for the truly important things.

England are very light up front. Eriksson's decision not to include Jermaine Defoe can be declared an error of judgment, regardless of Rooney's situation. The Swede should have forgone one of his nine midfield players much will have to go wrong for Jermaine Jenas to get a game.
Matt Dickinson

I've got a business manager and he'll just come right out and say, 'It wasn't the best part for you,' or 'It was okay, but I've seen you do better.' So when he does say, 'Wow that was great!,' then I know that he means it and it's something.

Everyone told me you can't build a major tech company in Canada. There just aren't enough investors or engineers or top-level managers. Each day, I'm driven to prove them wrong.

What any manager will try to bring to a company first and foremost is an energy and commitment to the business. To try and really roll your sleeves up.

I'm a big micro manager I'm a stickler about organisation everything needs a place, a purpose, and micro managing myself even when I'm in the studio.
Christina Aguilera

My idea of that[idea of career] is constantly changing. I mostly just throw it out to the universe and I can't really do much after that. I've never taken the steps to be successful: I've never had a manager or signed to a publishing house. I've talked to people about it but I've never followed through because it gives me the creeps.
J Tillman

Offside killed my team. They are not God. They made a mistake and I understand. I don't want three points, I just want 'sorry.'
