[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not everyone is cut out to manage people.  And having a nanny working for you does require the management of one employee.

If you think you are good at being a "Mom Boss", why do you think that?  [/quote]

As a MB and a corporate employee I am WELL aware that many people are not cut out to manage people I cringe at the thought of some people I work with managing a household employee. It is a delicate balance between having a personal and professional relationship.

DO I think I'm a good people manager? Yes, I do. I manage a team of 9 people that has grown in the last 6 years from being one person to 9. I've never had someone quit. I understand that when you ask a lot of someone and expect an excellent work output, you have to give something as well. I'm certainly not perfect. I'm very direct which can make people very anxious and I work on being softer in my approach. I also am not great at explaining things and like people who can figure stuff out on their own and sometimes people like a lot of direction. I also am scattered and disorganized which annoy everyone around me,[/quote]
