Engineering management lessons (2014)
Question: It says at point 8:<p>&gt; Don&#x27;t supervise the quality and volume of people’s work.<p>And I agree with the argument following that sentence. On the other hand, 2 points above that it says:<p>&gt; Do enforce behavioral and performance standards. Fire bullies and underperformers.<p>So how else <i>do</i> I recognize underperformers without taking note of quantity and quality of people&#x27;s output? Surely I can&#x27;t just take someone else&#x27;s word for it (and by the point a peer complains about this it&#x27;s probably too late already anyway?).
