Take the time and energy to manage your boss the same way you manage your team.
Press on. Your defining moment may arrive just when you feel surrounded by adversity.
A real leader spends his time fixing the problem instead of finding who to blame.
Until you accept total responsibility - no matter what - you won't be able to put plans in place to accomplish your goals.
Never lower your standards just to fill a position. You will pay for it later.
You have to escape from management land and get in touch with your people.
