“The most common management style is seagull management. A manager gives you a task, disappears, and then only returns when you make a mistake—they fly in, make a lot of noise, dump on you, and then fly out. If you read Donna Genett’s book on delegating, these ineffective flights will not be necessary.”
—Ken Blanchard, coauthor,
The One Minute Manager®
