So it seems like many people are user-friendly and many people are the types who like to have a few user-friendly people around them. We can say that generally, people don’t really use their common sense much. In the workplace, most people have pretty low EQ and are generally politically correct. Most people just have the natural tendency to inconvenience others for their own purposes. You probably hear more Yes men and lackeys instead of someone more competent. Big companies lack the human touch and are too far to understand or feel the work put in by the layers of reporting lines.

When I was fresh out of school, CEOs, CFOs, and COOs seemed like a far-reach. Beyond the touches of anyone. As time went by, I realized that they were just a normal human being with nothing more than a connection than knowledge. Most do not have a vision but work with a team of advisors who have personal gain to their names. The problem with C-suites is that most of them panic at the smallest movement. What they do stand out from us locals is that they speak well and have a good storage of vocabulary in their sack to be used.

Competence-wise, Nah..not many since the days of Bill Gates and Jack Ma. The top-level people today are less visionaries and more workers. Are the people who planned for takeover to blame? I actually do not think so. Rather, I felt that people have been too comfortable and less resilient in themselves. They poop in their pants when shit comes by hence making more mess out of a big mess.

What is Management? Management is about democracy. You don’t just manage people, but you also share your visionaries and ideas to convince people that you are the right person to follow. You can’t please everyone but at least set some standards and don’t be a half-bucket who sways your ideas once something else comes along. More importantly, it’s the working style and those who work below you will have to look up to you. Then, because it is a democracy, you need more than 50% of the people on your side. It is basic.

Random musings that I get from being as frustrated as hell early in the morning.
