[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you ever become a manager you'll see how it is.  Your staff's performance is a reflection of you and if you are at a company that is not doing well, then the pressure mounts.  Managers are only as good as the staff that they manage.  It's important for staff to build trust with their managers and also learn to manage up.

Fair enough, but do you believe that good managers should want the best of the best working under them? That once an employee has proven themselves over several assignments that they need some independence to work well? Not to mention that I've never, ever, heard an employee say their office morale was boosted by a micromanager - does morale and general working style/environment not have a significant effect on productivity?

What these poor managers don't realize is that this is like being in a relationship with a clingy person. The person clinging to you is doing so because they are concerned you will leave the relationship and they want to show how much they want you to stay in the relationship. Meanwhile the clinginess rapidly gets old and the partner ends up being pushed away by it and leaving. [/quote]
