TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Well, I think that usually turns out to be the case regardless
of the details. Good employees can be badly managed,
poor employees badly chosen, bad management decisions
from on high not pushed back on, unavoidable management
decisions from on high poorly implemented and not well
explained to staff so they understand the need, etc. Unless
I find myself confronted by a problem employee I didn't hire
who's off somewhere doing crack instead of making an
effort to resolve performance issues, it's hard for me to
imagine an employee problem I wouldn't see as at least
partly the result of my mistakes as a manager.
