50 Things I Learned In Management

Here are the top 50 Rules for Managers. Put them in any order you like. Hopefully they will remind you of something or reinforce a concept you have been using. And if not, maybe you will have an “Aha” moment from using this reminder list.

1.You get all of the blame.

2.You get none of the credit.

3.You are always talking about the future.

4.Your job is to make your boss look good and remind him/her of their excellent choice in making you a manager.

5.Make it difficult for your people to fail, as long as they stay in the game.

  2. How many gallons of fuel are you pumping a day?
  3. Where is the next nearest Truck Wash to your location?
  4. How is the labor supply there?
  5. How much money do you have to build the “truck wash” part of the business?
  6. How much space do you have there?
