The Dumbass Manager

Are you a dumbass manager?

Do you believe long hours means more productivity? Do believe controlling employees v. trusting them drives morale? Do you believe face-to-face meetings is the only way to build and sustain teams?

If you said yes to all those questions….You’re a dumbass.
