>The best managers I've known in technical communication have been:
>Creative -- able to provide a fresh perspective when needed
>Positive -- focused on solving problems, not assigning blame
>Appreciative -- of a job well done and of the kind of work I do
>Supportive -- willing to back me, and my team, when conflicts arise
>Honest -- straightforward and ethical
>What other attributes would the rest of y'all add?--Larry Kunz
They've had a good sense of humor when needed, even when the joke was
on them.--Bill Sullivan
>(Note to fellow baseball fan Bill Sullivan: The Rangers' manager,
whose name you couldn't remember, is Johnny Oates -- who washed out
in Baltimore but who found the situation in Texas much better suited
to his style and abilities.)--Larry Kunz
Right. Thanks, Larry. I mighta remembered that, but I live in a
National League town.
