Klint Finley on SiliconAngle put up a good article last week on what he calls the “Emerging Anti-Stupid Movement“. He quotes Linda Musthalher as saying, “There is a shortage of companies willing to invest in the training and development of enthusiastic and committed employees.” What is anti-stupid? Investing in your team to support and enable them in producing quality work.
Check out the article. Finley has some interesting stats; such as the average IT pro putting in 71 hours a week and about 1/3 of the IT pros dissatisfied and looking for another job.
I talk a lot about how my team works. My management style comes from years of running small consulting teams. My style is people-centric and focuses on the value proposition.
I talk a lot about it. But as was recently pointed out to me, I do not write a lot about it. Practically nothing, actually. Over the next few weeks, I am going to do a series of Management Monday posts. Perhaps the time is right to build on this “Anti-Stupid Movement“.
