Make no mistake, you would prefer to work for someone who is going to put their arm around you at times and lift you.

I think management is about just that - managing people via man-to-man skills.

It can be a bit of a hindrance when you walk into a restaurant for a quiet meal and one or two launch into 'psycho, psycho'!

I do appreciate that the most important thing as manager is to get good results.

I may be able to put a good book tape on in the car on the way home and I will have a smile on my face.

If my results are not good I will lose my job.

I just get the impression that everyone is willing me to succeed.
