![]() Learning to Think like a Manager |
So, they say to themselves, what does a manager think like? Well, first they've got to have a lot of plants in their office. And a nice painting[1]. And are his eyes even open? But maybe we're looking at this all wrong - why should we assume that it's not the woman who is teaching business suit man with his fancy watch how to think like a manager. "Close your eyes, good - now picture yourself holding a blowhorn and a tuba. Great..." she'll say in her smooth soft managerial voice. And what's that white thing behind the plant, something plugged in to the wall? It draws attention away from the fact that suit-boy has crumpled papers in his hand, while blouse-girl has a fancy folder. And we all know what she means with that pen. I'm getting flashbacks to thing fish! [1] If anyone can tell me the name of that painting, I'll buy them a beer. |
