Some effective methods for managers to abuse their power include:
· Setting unrealistic goals, so that subordinates will appear to be performing below expectations
· Publicly chastising or criticising a subordinate in front of others
· Changing policies abruptly and without consulting those impacted
· Making empty promises in order to coerce a certain outcome
· Failing to recognize contributions or accomplishments made by subordinates 
By employing these management tactics, it is possible for managers to squeeze every bit of productivity out of their subordinates - while making sure none of it is attributable to them.
