Browse Quotations about Management

A computer will not make a good manager out of a bad manager. It makes a good manager better faster and a bad manager worse faster.
A good manager doesn't try to eliminate conflict; he tries to keep it from wasting the energies of his people. If you're the boss and your people fight you openly when they think that you are wrong -- that's healthy.
A good manager is a man who isn't worried about his own career but rather the careers of those who work for him. My advice: Don't worry about yourself. Take care of those who work for you and you'll float to greatness on their achievements.
A man is known by the company he organizes.
A man may be a tough, concentrated, successful money-maker and never contribute to his country anything more than a horrible example. A manager may be tough and practical, squeezing out, while the going is good, the last ounce of profit and dividend, and may leave behind him an exhausted industry and a legacy of industrial hatred. A tough manager may never look outside his own factory walls or be conscious of his partnership in a wider world. I often wonder what strange cud such men sit chewing when their working days are over, and the accumulating riches of the mind have eluded them.
A manager is an assistant to his men.
A memorandum is not written to inform the reader, but to protect the writer.
A president either is constantly on top of events or, if he hesitates, events will soon be on top of him. I never felt that I could let up for a moment.
An executive is someone who talks with visitors so the other employees can get their work done.
An overburdened, over-stretched executive is the best executive, because he or she doesn't have the time to meddle, to deal in trivia, to bother people
Any manager who can't get along with a .400 hitter is crazy.
As a manager the important thing is not what happens when you are there, but what happens when you are not there.
Damn the great executives, the men of measured merriment, damn the men with careful smiles, damn the men that run the shops, oh, damn their measured merriment.
Effective managers live in the present but concentrate on the future.
Every time I appoint someone to a vacant position, I make a hundred unhappy and one ungrateful.
