The Cranky Middle Manager Show #312 The Future of the MBA Ken Starkey
You Think YOU Have Trouble In Meetings?
Posted on 03. Feb, 2006 by Wayne in General
Ever feel sometimes like everyone else has a firm grip on their job, and it’s just YOU who can’t get people to show up at meetings on time? Well, it’s not. Check out US Ambassador to the UN John Bolton’s response- and how it went.
Now, for our overseas readers and listeners, JB was not exactly a “Boss of the Year” candidate before taking this job, so it shouldn’t surprise anyone that he’s not working and playing well with others. Nothing like having your performance review done in front of Congress and the entire world to make you crankier than you already were.
Still, is it a surprise that being a big ole jerk doesn’t work in the world’s largest collection of arrogant self-important people?
Thanks to AaronJV’s Blog for turning me on to the story…..
