What is your best managing people advice?

[stevieray]

Managing what?

Meat market?
Car dealership?
National Call Center?
Warehouse?
Bar?
Wendy's?
Investment team?
Little League Baseball team?

Lots of different responsibilities for different gigs.
Manage means to manipulate and control to a desired end.

In an overall sense, better have great organizational/people skills. If not, usually ends up being the secondary definition.

It's cool that you want to be a coach but remember what you are there for. Know what you are talking about and how to teach and make players better. As they are getting better they will respect you as will the parents. The most annoying thing ever is some dumb ass that doesn't know the game or how to make his players better in every aspect. They may donate their time but they're wasting everyone else's. Unfortunately that is a pretty large number of coaches in kids athletics. I hope for the players sake you know what your doing.

Actually I am relieved you are not. I figured bowling was more in your lane,

Did not want to derail the thread but your dislike of me has driven you to post objectively stupid things.

I wish my manager had taught me to always think about where I would throw the ball during the interminable dull times where I was standing around watching balls and strikes.
